Three-game Giveaway: CLOSED: Congrats Imp, Naxza, and Girlinhat!
« on: November 18, 2012, 09:04:59 pm »

Okay, let's be honest. You're probably here because of STALKER. Homefront is a meh-ish CoDalike, and Armageddon is a weaker game than the earlier entries in the series. On the other hand, they're free. So yeah, I bought a pack of games which happened to include one I already own and two I have no interest in owning.

STALKER: Shadow of Chernobyl is amazing, and shame on you if you haven't already played it. But if you haven't, this is your chance!

Homefront, as above, is a CoDalike. The story was written by the same guy that wrote the plot to Red Dawn, so it does manage to capture that sort of atmosphere at points. MP is better if you can find a server.

Red Faction: Armageddon is a thoroughly mehworthy continuation of the series. The environmental destruction is good, but that's about it. MP is apparently better if you can find it.

What I have are Steam product codes. If for whatever reason you don't do Steam, you're out of luck.  :-\

Instead of doing a randomized trio of drawings, we'll try something a little different.

STALKER: If you want to have a shot at it, write a short horror snippet (less than 1,500 words) or sketch something terrifying. Whichever one I like most wins the writer/artist the game.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Homefront: Hit me with the single worst pun you can think of. Whichever one most makes me feel like slamming my head into my desk wins the game.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Armageddon: Okay, I lied. If you can identify either my favorite fictional couple to ship or the username of a certain individual who wins every single bloody game giveaway (either can be transmitted via PM if you really care), you'll be entered into a random drawing for this heap of mediocrity.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

As usual, Escaped Lunatics and people who have obviously just joined and quickly inflated their postcount need not apply. I'll be away from internet for most of the coming week, so I'll review everything and hand out the codes sometime the week of the 25th. Good luck, all.  :)

I'm a sucker for free crap, and since I already have SoC, don't care as much about Armageddon, and am normally good with terrible puns, hopefully I can think of an extra-terrible one for a chance at Homefront...

No, not right now >.> I need context, dammit, and Homefront just doesn't have anything specific to latch onto.

Guess I couldn't heed the Call of Duty... just like the game itself.

Remember, Red Dawn. There's a veritable army of CCCP/Communism jokes to make. The game is also about Korea invading the U.S. Bam, material.  :P

My pun skills are usually based around taking something somebody says and warping it, though... or building off of somebody else's pun.

I already submitted that pretty meh pun. If someone actually challenges me, I'll see if I can top them.

Looks like you two might be winning by default.  :P

Yeah, that was what was surprising. I know someone out there hasn't played STALKER.

Well, having firsthand knowledge of the individual whose name is roughly described as a glass vessel for holding liquids, in and of a hue resembling amber, and his or her habits of winning everything so decided by random.org, I shall put in for Armageddon. Also, I don't think my desktop could run Homefront.

Thank you for your generosity, Flying Dice.

It's a she.

I'd like to sign up for STALKER, if possible.
If you're not doing them individually that's fine too.

I don't have a scanner, so I had to use a camera instead.

I do believe you may be correct.
