Sweepstake: Get 1 of 5 Free Download Copies of The Witcher 2!

If you missed out on last week’s awesome Witcher 2 sale here’s your chance to get one of five download copies for free. The Witcher 2 ist the best thing that happened to me since Oblivion. It’s an incredibly well done RPG with a great story, interesting characters and a pretty engaging fighting system.

I admit, I’m somewhat of a CD Project fanboy but I’m not alone. The games scored 87 at metacritic. A good RPG is hard to come by at the moment. I was so desperate that I reinstalled Oblivion for the 3rd time before Witcher 2 was released. So I know how you feel. Plus at GOG you get a shitload of additional stuff with your download version: wallpapers, guides, making-offs, soundtrack – you name it. And the best is that the whole thing comes without any DRM. You understand now why I like them so much?

Anyway, if you are up for on of the best RPGs currently arround try you luck.

This time we want to try something new, though: To participate please post a short comment in support of Deals4Downloads.com anywhere on the web. This could be:

This Week’s Sweepstake: a Digital Version of Doom 3

 

This week’s sweepstake is one of the most successful first person shooter ever released for the PC. It also happens to be the third installation of one of the first FPS ever: the original Doom. While the story deviates from it’s original it hasn’t lost any of the claustrophobic feel and deadly surprises that is so typical. To be honest, I still haven’t played Doom 3 since it was and probably still is too dark for me. But than I also watch horror movies with lights turned on to the max.

Anyway, if you are up for a good scare and one of the best shooters ever try you luck.

To participate simply leave a short comment explaining why you want this game with the deal until next Sunday. Oh, and you can like us on Facebook, too. :)

Click here to get to the sweepstake and leave your comment (at the end of the deal page).

Good luck and don’t forget to vote for our next weeks sweepstakes. Check the Wall of Winners to see if you won this time.

Changelog: Roundup, Filters, Imports and Discovery features

What I always find amazing is that you work and work for 6 weeks straight doing thousands of little tasks and at the end you look back and ask yourself where all the time went.  As always 80% of our programming time goes into background stuff which is difficult to show and which makes it even more frustrating at times. Luckily, this time there are a few things that we actually can show off, too. :)

Roundup makover

Take the new roundup for example. This one has been on the todo list for like forever. Now it got a design overhaul and comes with a slick new table format. We also added genre information and changed the sorting order so that all daily deals within each shop are now sorted by highest saving first. Additionally, we added some basic filtering including price, saving and platform. While you can’t combine them (yet) hopefully they still enhance the usability a lot.

Filter improvements

Speaking of filters, the filter box on the deal lists now show you the number of results for the shop filter (in brackets).  A small but pretty neat feature which saves you some unnecessary clicking for shops without deals. Works only with shops so far but I guess we will add it for other filters as well.

 

New imports

We added a whole host of new imports. Some are easier than others depending if they have a product feed or not. Anyway, we now push a couple of hundreds more deals per week through our system which should give you even more opportunities to browse for deals and spend you hard earned money. :)

  • Amazon (now also Mac and PS3 deals)
  • Adventure Shop (PC)
  • Beamdog (PC)
  • EA (is starting to push some better deals lately)
  • GOG (finally)
  • GreenManGaming (PC)

First discovery features

While you mostly see our deals we also list and track shop availability and prices for more than 15.000 digital games that are not necessary on sale but might be still interesting for our users. We call that our iceberg: deal are the top, digital games the thing below the surface. Small vs. big. Get it? Anyway, we try to push the iceberg a little more out of the water (got to stick with the analogy now) by making our games listing more visibile with some discovery features. It’s only a very modest selection but still better than nothing, I guess:

  • A new side box on the product and deal pages now shows the top 5 bestselling games at one glance.
  • Also on the deal and product pages we now have a box that shows the newest games with the same genre and platform as the currently viewed product.
  • Finally, there is are two popular shop boxes that give our (new) users instant access to our most popular digital distribution shops.
