We've been hearing much buzz about a certain hack-and-slash RPG that's pretty good (and that even I had to nab when it dropped to $5 last week), but it's no Dungeon Siege.
That's right, I said it. Dungeon Siege did it first and it did it better.
And it just so happens we stumbled across an extra copy on one of our holiday shopping outings. So if you want to take the Torchlight challenge, sign up here for your chance to win the original Dungeon Siege for PC.
I quickly lost count of how many nights I barely slept back in 2002. (It's like it was another decade!) All I knew was that I had to explore every inch of Ehb, collect more party members to manage, and loot, loot, loot. Managing my inventory and deciding what to sell was more than half the battle. And the lack of load screens made it hard to find a place to quit for the night (or, more often than not, morning). It even has multiplayer co-op, if you're into that.
Here's how to enter:
Simply post a comment on this page. Say whatever is on your mind as long as it's not an ad or profane. Be sure to read the Sweepstakes Rules to ensure you are eligible to win and don't get disqualified by double-posting or forgetting to provide an e-mail address.
You may also want to white list this domain; we've had several would-be winners lose out because they never responded to their prize notification! If you use TypeKey/TypePad, be sure your e-mail address will be shared. No e-mail address, no prize. (Don't worry, no one else will see it - and we'll only use it to contact you if you win.)
Note that unless you're an authenticated poster who has been active on the site and marked as trusted, your comment will NOT appear immediately. It will go into a queue for me to approve, which I'll do several times a day (except the first weekend, where comments may not be approved until sometime late on Sunday). Do NOT double-post. We'll extend the entry period for this until 5:01 p.m. Pacific Time on Thursday, January 7 to ensure you have plenty of time to enter and verify your entry was posted.
We also sometimes give away unannounced Instant Win prizes. Here are a few tips since this can happen at any time. (Check our Busy Gamer Podcast on Sundays for possible hints about what's coming!) 1) Follow Gamewatcher on Twitter. Before we post the next Free Stuff Bonus - Instant Win, we'll give you a fair warning tweet. 2) Subscribe to our RSS feed and set it to check for updates frequently.
We continue to stock up on cool goodies for Free Stuff Friday - and we will keep doing so as long as there's enough response, even if we continue to lose money on this site. So tell your friends about this! Hey, if we get bigger, so will the prizes that YOU could win!
While you're at it, post comments wherever you see something interesting. Also, if you get a game code you don't need or have some other cool game-related prize you want to donate, we'd be very grateful (we pay for most of this stuff ourselves!).
Check back each Friday to see what's next.
