The new gift is a $130 eCertificate that you can use to purchase some of Samsung’s online store’s products. ...

According to Kotaku, GOG platform (once Good Old Games) has just laid off a dozen employees, which was roughly 10% of its whole staff. Officially these layoffs are a part of company’s restructuring process that has been ongoing since October 2018. Unofficially the layoffs are caused by a decrease in GOG’s revenue, which in turn was caused by Epic Store taking over a significant chunk of the gaming platform market. GOG, just like Steam, only offers the producers 70% of income from sold games, while Epic Store offers them a whooping 88%. GOG was also never all that big to begin ...
