If you signed up for GoG.com when they were in beta stage, their giving you a free game. (Jagged Alliance: Deadly Games) I've never heard of this game personally, but it's still a nice effort on their part.

Here's the official article on GoG.com.

I'm not sure this is the right forum, since this is game and news related.
What's the alternative gift?

I'm not sure, when I click the link it tells me that I do not own it and am not eligible.
[QUOTE=windwakr;25538927]Yeah, I got this email today. The game is not that great.[/QUOTE]
It's the effort that counts in my opinion.
It should be ~2 years active. Practically every single GOG member now has a free game.

you might not think so, but Jagged Alliance is, like, the father of the cornerstone of that which is turn-based tactical games.
It's the novelty that counts.

Really? I've been a member for 671 days, I don't have anything free...

I'm pretty sure you are talking about X-Com. JA just improved the formula.

But X-Com is the mother -- she gave birth to the genre!
I take that back. Laser Squad was, but it was created by the same guy.

And Rebelstar, etc. List goes on.
But you're right -- you got me.
Yep, but X-Com really popularized and set the standard for future games. It's a shame games like these have pretty much been eradicated.
I made a GOG account a while ago to get Beneath a Steel Sky for free, and now I get another free game :v:
I registered a bit too late so I didn't get it. Doesn't really bother because I'm having so much fun with other games games that I paid for.
Jagged Alliance 2 looks quite interesting though...
Awesome, never played the original JA but I love JA2.
