EDIT January 6, 2024:
All games have been accepted by the winners! Thanks everyone for your participation! I loved reading the different messages and hearing some of the positives, the things that made you feel hopeful, and a bit about some of the games you’ve played. While I wish I could give you all more copies of games, we will do another giveaway like this in the future.
Stay safe, and happy 2024 ahead!
EDIT January 5, 2024:
Minor edit for posterity. All games have been claimed apart from God of War. Each winner of God of War never responded so I’m working down the list through a randomizer to select the eligible winner for this game. I’ll update this post one final time as soon as we have an eligible winner that claims this final giveaway.
EDIT January 4, 2024:
There was no response received for the selected winners for Elden Ring and God of War.
I am re-drawing for both these games and will update this post once these final two game codes are accepted by the new winners.
EDIT January 3, 2024:
All games have been claimed apart from two: Elden Ring and God of War. Considering it is the holiday and there may be some obligations, I’m extending the 24 hour window by another 24 hours. If the winners do not reply by Jan 4, 2024 ~ 9 AM ET, they will be forfeit and I will re-draw new winners.
EDIT January 2, 2024:
Giveaway Ended! All winners have been notified, but they have 24 hours to respond. If the winner does not respond, I will re-draw for the new winner the next day until all codes have been exhausted.
I will also be editing this post periodically to acknowledge who won and if they accepted.
I loved reading all these comments, and thanks for everyone responding here and also sharing an optional story! There’s a lot of positivity and hope out there, which makes me also feel the same.
P.S. - I really wish I could afford more games to giveaway to you all, but we can certainly do something like this in the future and perhaps make some kind of collaborative giveaway.
Stay safe, and happy new year ahead!

I tried FF16 for the first time about a month ago, and I absolutely loved it. I was visiting a friend who has a PS5, and as someone who doesn’t have one and has never had a playstation, I was eager to try. I’m not all that great at video games and was expecting to suck at this one as well, although I’d say I did quite well. I was even the first to try the game, which I felt really good about.
As for the game, I’d like Persona 5 Royal.
Persona 5 Royal would be amazing - my girlfriend loves the Persona games and we like to play them together (one of us watching). Its a great way to spend time during the winter months 😄
I would love to have Spider-Man Miles Molares. Haven’t really got a chance to try it and wanted to play it on my Steam Deck ^^
Oh, thats really nice of you. I’d really like elden ring. Happy Holidays everyone! :*
I don’t want any of these games since I cannot play them. I’m just happy you’re doing this, happy holidays ^^
Same, although I will buy some of these in the future. I’m just happy someone else gets the chance to play these as well.
I’ll throw my hat in the ring for God of War.
I’m really happy that many Playstation games are coming to PC recently. I’ve played both Spider-Men games and Horizon Zero Dawn and these ports have been great. Judging based on reviews, God Of War seems to perform well too. I’m glad many older exclusives are coming to PC now (still waiting for bloodborne) and the ports are technologically a lot more than the bare minimum. It feels like Playstation Studios respects the PC platform and their own legacy by making sure the games work well.
Thank you, i would like to enter for Elden Ring
I would love horizon zero dawn if I were to win this. Happy holidays everyone!
Elden Ring would be nice.
Well, what made me happy this year was my new job. The company is even nicer than expected. Nice people and working is fun.
I would sign up for God of War
I’m also very happy that geometry dash got update 2.2 after waiting for over 6 years and it is great.
Hey there,
Thats Nice of you 🥰🥰,
The best things for me, don’t laugh, my life isn’t cool lmao, was finishing twice cyberpunk in a month, and then my first use of stable diffusion on my arch station (BTW), I almost did an coming out too :D but this one doesn’t count, because its in progress… ✊
Im applying for Persona5, I really want to give him a go, but if someone is in need prefer this someone, I can buy it after all. That’s really lovely from you. 😘
Do you have a guide on how to install/use stable diffusion on arch? I tried to get it working, but it didn’t work.
