I took advantage of Dead Space but found it too difficult to play - the cursor movement was "jagged" and nothing I changed in settings made it feel comfortable. I don't have the best game rig, not even a good one, but I play Left for Dead 2 absolutely fine, so I guess its a bug or something.

 

Awesome that Battlefield 3 is available. Heads up, its 20GB so will probably have to leave it overnight. 

 

I realize that this is a few days late but to fix that you just have to turn off vsync in game and then turn it on through your graphics drivers software.

Okay, just to be sure, is that the "wait for vertical refresh" in the AMD catalyst control center? I've added Dead Space as a new profile and put that to "always on".

New game is OTH and is called "Peggle".

Yes.

Sweet, thanks.

Peggle or Peggle 2? Either way, no one should ever say no to Peggle, especially if it's free!

^ it's the original one.

 

I imagine they hope you'll enjoy the first one so much that you'll be enticed to purchase the second one.

It's still a good game, though have had my fill on X1 with Peggle 2. Which will likely be next months Games with Gold entry for X1 :s

Yep, just got the email, will be redeeming this once I get home!

I didn't even know they released them again...

[francescob]

Did they include some of the extra stuff present in the Gog version (like the deleted cutscenes) or is just some random horrible dosbox "port"?

[SpiderNitro]

I heard of this. Bravo to Electronic Arts for rereleasing the original third game to the series that they helped revive for free on Origin!

[Noir Angel]

Seems to be a new move from EA to allow you to sample games free for a small length of time. BF4 is currently available on a 7 day free run

 

Clicky

Evil mimics good all the time, doesn't mean their intentions are the same.

Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning was added too.

 

And semi related, SimCity (5) now has a 4 hour SP demo available.

Meanwhile in the overnight, Battlefield 4 gives way to Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare for the weekend.  (The Game of the Year version of the original was featured in On the House in June - so the comparing is easy.)

Garden Warfare is super fun, so I recommend anyone who hasn't played it to try it out.

And it's using the Frostbite engine (same engine used by the Battlefield franchise) - should it be called the Warfare Engine?
