Giveaway: The Witcher 2 & Just Cause 2



And a beautiful contribution yet again from theonedub, muchas gracias sir!


Here we have The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings Enhanced Edition and Just Cause 2!!!

To Enter: Let's hear why you want this game. Make it good, we don't want to see a simple, "I'm in" type of entry. We all enjoy reading through interesting threads, so let's make this a good read!

Requirements: TPU join date of August 2012 or earlier, post count of 50, and must not own the game (no exceptions). The game will sent directly in Steam.
Previous Winners: Let's open this up to ALL who meet the requirements above. To those who have won before, you'll get a single entry in the pot, while those who have not will get 2 entries in the pot. I see this as a fair compromise for all to share!

Closing Time: Friday the 26th @7pm EST (+/- without notice), with the winner announced shortly thereafter

Important: Once announced and PM'd, the winner will have a firm 36 hours to claim their prize. If not, the winner forfeits their earning and a new winner will be drawn!

Another Special Thanks to everyone, from those who have contributed to giveaways ( to theonedub) to those who have been a part of TPU since the beginning of time! It's likely understood that we TPU is the greatest!
The Winners' Circle

Oh yes! I want to enter! Because I want to how the weird ice-scene ending of Witcher 1 correlates to this one (and also that this game never goes to a 9.99 dollar mark -_-)

not GOTY right?

Sign me up, I hear that the controls in these games are quite unique so I'd like to try that out. Also can see how purdy it is with my new rig and 7950. How is the plot in these games? decent?

It's supposed to be pretty great. That's what I've heard as I've not gotten into it yet, but I do look forward to it.

Thanks for the giveaways though!

Games fall out of the sky in the form of bits of code and then reform to appear in my Steam. I don't question it, can't predict it, just share the phenomenon with others. Thus, they indirectly fall to the unsuspecting digital neighborhood of the TPU forums.

If anyone here hasn't played JC2 Multiplayer it is amazing and everyone should experience it. It also works on copies obtained though *cough* different ways

THIS is the reason to get JC2. I mean, sure, the SP is alright, but the mayhem that can be achieved in MP. You really need to be there to witness it. It's awesome!

Not much is better than having 50 people all latched onto the same jet as you fly around the map.

I just updated the OP concerning those who have won before and wish to enter:

To those who have won before and wish to enter for Witcher 2, you'll get 1 entry in the pot, while those who have not won before will get 2 entries in the pot. I see this as a fair compromise for all to share!

Let's see some more

*not entering this giveaway cause I've already won three games in all these giveaways and I want to give others chance *

Both games are equally fun, its just a matter of Action RPG vs Open-Ended Sandbox preference
