We have mentioned about GOG.com previously, as a safe and very good source for inexpensive and free games:
GOG.com is dedicated to providing enthusiasts with a source for popular retro games, from a time when gameplay was at the forefront. GOG’s catalog includes hundreds of relatively inexpensive Good Old Games, most from just $5.99 to $9.99. Signing up for a free account gives new members instant access to six free games; Dragonsphere, Tyrian 2000, Lure of the Temptress, Beneath a Steel Sky, Ultima IV Quest of the Avatar and Teen Agent. Anyone who enjoys playing games should definitely have a look around GOG.com.
GOG.com is currently offering the legendary FPS, Duke Nukem 3D, absolutely free. Available for both Windows and Mac, BUT it is only free for a short time… until Friday, December 14, at 14.59 GMT.
Duke Nukem 3D: Atomic Edition, the legendary FPS in which the Earth’s greatest hero provides a steady flow of bullets and badass one-liners, is available on GOG.com, for the low price of one smile, for the next 48 hours. That’s not all. For the first time in history, this supreme space-alien slaughter simulation is also available on Mac!

Hi Chuck.
I published this article on 12th December, as soon as I heard the news and not long after the giveaway went live. What more can I do mate?
One of the great benefits of the ‘blog’ format is that it offers immediacy, but readers can only take advantage of that by either visiting the site on a daily basis or subscribing to our RSS feed. The newsletter you receive each weekend is called a “Recap” for a reason, it is a summary of the past week’s articles/events….’past’ being the operative word.
We have tried sending out additional emails notifying subscribers of these events but then received numerous complaints that we were spamming… damned if you do, damned if you don’t.
We are open to suggestions mate.
Cheers… Jim
