Today I won my
second giveaway on
SteamGifts. Last time, I won
Jamestown, an enjoyable indie top-down shooter, and
gave away two copies of Terraria in turn. This time...well, this time, I won
Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine, an almost brand new
$50 game. In case that wasn't enough, the gift was pre-ordered, meaning that a copy of
Darksiders (
$20) was included too.
Thanks to the generosity of
Illbeans, I have
$70 worth of new games to play. In celebration, I bought a copy of
Bastion to give away. I had heard many good things about
Bastion from friends and other people, so I bought a copy for myself as well. You can enter the
Bastion giveaway if you're a
SteamGifts member.
If not, from the previous post...
"If you're not a member yet, you will need an invite code. These codes are generated by existing community members for a variable point cost (
50 at the moment). Occasionally special multi-use promotional codes are created by site staff as well. Luckily, I have
1 6 spare codes and
Propugnator has
3 some spare codes to giveaway too. But the
SteamGifts community needs
good community members; these codes will not be given away randomly.
If you would like a code, convince one of us that you would be a good choice for an invitation. Link to a giveaway you've made somewhere else or a contribution you've made to another community, or write out a great explanation of why you'd really like an invite. Really, anything could work. It's up to you, but anyone trying to purchase or trade something for an invite code will be ignored."
I've played a bit of both
Bastion and
Space Marine
, and they're both a lot of fun. I probably wouldn't have bought
Space Marine on my own, at least not until the price dropped; being able to experience the game now is great.
