fun4now: I was a lil ticked off to find I had to come here for the free downlolad as well, not willing to try it on my sons new build so ill try it on my asus 751 laptop.... with luck it all works ok and ill buy him a copy on steam for the new build. I found it hard to believe they couldn't provide a code for steam ???? I mean realy ? steam comes as a quick launch button on my asus 751 but they cant offer a giveaway code threw them ?? B.S. guys
GOG is owned by CD Projekt. So it's a way for them to send you to their sister company and it's a way to get the game DRM-free. Don't forget that when Steam closes its doors, your games are gone. Here, you're free to make backups and put on as many computers as you want in your home.
GOG's a great place to be. Better community, great games, great support, and you get to own your games. Steam's just popular, but with worse community, lots of shovelware (but also AAA games, too, of course -- which is a big plus), terrible support, and long-term game rentals.
