And it’s that time of the year again. While our Top 10 Most Optimized PC Games of 2018 has not gone live yet, we’ve decided to alter this year’s giveaway. As such, we’ll be giving away 13 games from smaller studios that, in our opinion, could benefit from some extra exposure.
But wait… I can already read your mind… small games for a Christmas giveaway? Blasphemy, how can this be? Therefore, we’ll be also giving away the first five games of our Top 10 Most Optimized PC Games of 2018. To be honest, we haven’t determined that list yet so we can’t really tell you right now which are these five triple-A games. As for the other 13 games, you can find among them GRIP, GRIS, 2084, Book of Demons and more.
You can participate in this giveaway via three ways: By simply leaving a ‘Thank You’ comment below (duplicate or off-topic comments will be deleted), by re-tweeting our giveaway or by sharing our Facebook post. Do note that FB and Twitter likes are NOT an eligible way to participate in the giveaway and will not be counted. For your convenience, we’ve embedded both our tweet and FB post below, so it can be easier for you to share and re-tweet it.

System is flawed… “Simon Cloutier” posted 2x times in these comments, his additional post was not deleted and still won.
Nice catch. It’s understandable that since we have a lot of comments something like that may happen. He will not receive the gift and since you’re the one who discovered it, we’ll give it to you. Feel free to email me at john2@dsogaming.com to send you the key.
Congrats to the winners! Last year I won Wolfenstein II. Thanks again, DSO!
keep the good job..
Ooo BOY..!!! I’m not on the List.. :p
Congrats to all winners
Congrats everyone!
