GOG<\/a> seem to be bringing in the deals and specials lately, as the online service is throwing out the game-buying incentives to keep PC gamers<\/a> busy.<\/p>\n

The latest is the Battle of the Games special, which will give gamers a monster discount on their favourite game, although, it has to fight for it.<\/p>\n

The deal, which will last from June 19 to July 5, will pit two games against each other every day, with users then voting to determine a winner after 24 hours.<\/p>\n

The winning game will receive a 60% discount, while the runner-up gets a 40% for the next 24 hours after the battle ends.<\/p>\n

For Round 1, we have the epic CD-ROM adventure, Myst: Masterpiece Edition, in the red corner, up against the spine-chilling horror game, The 7th Guest, holding it down in the blue corner.<\/p>\n

To cast your vote, head over to the GOG summer promo page<\/a>, and express your love.<\/p>\n
