GOG.com Announces Schedule for Holiday Deals

Steam has become famous for offering some of the best game deals around, but this holiday season, GOG.com wants to make sure its name gets recognized as well by offering much of the same. What’s being planned is quite impressive, so if you’re a fan of gaming classics, then you’d do well to pay attention to this promotion.

The entirety of the promotion lasts from December 8 to January 2, and arguably the most impressive deal to be found will be The Witcher 2 being sold for a mere $23.99, which includes a free copy of the The Witcher: Enhanced Edition (a game I am in the middle of playing and have been thoroughly enjoying). If you’re an RPG fan, do not pass this deal up!

This coming Saturday and Sunday, the company will also be giving away hundreds of free games via its social networking channels and on its website. Going further, next Monday the company will be giving away a free copy of Empire Earth: Gold Edition to anyone who wants it. That particular promotion will last just 48-hours, so once again, don’t delay once it’s available if you are interested in it.

Finally, along with the Empire Earth deal next Monday, GOG.com will be marking down almost its entire catalogue at 50% off – a sale that will last straight through until January 2. It goes without saying, this is definitely the time to stock up on your classic games, or pick up some stocking-stuffers for your family and friends.
