If you prefer to not bother making your spreadsheet, for whatever reason, Gamespot already does this:

Thanks for this! I love making it, actually, and if you look at the attached image in the original post, in the note, the first source links to the same PC Gamer article. I did use it, alongside the second source, to make sure that the data is accurate. What PC Gamer’s list lacks, in my opinion, is neatness—that extra polish. It is also not numbered, and it doesn’t tell you how many of the free games are unique (the total number of free games minus the repeats).
The spreadsheet is also where I document all the free games I have ever gotten, with their prices and all. The list of free games came about because I was curious how many games I had missed and how many there were in total.

Hey ipax, there is already a thread for the Epic games freebies that keeps track of the upcoming deals, so it might actually pay to post in there, and the OP can add the link into the main discussion if they think it's worth doing.

Great list, thanks for your work... this allows us to take a look at Epic's positioning campaign and their generosity too, 368 giveaways in 4 years is a very good number, I find incredible that there are some people who are still angry about repeated games or just hate the company without seeing how many people (including me and them) have been benefited from these free games.

Thanks! I couldn’t agree more. If something is free, you lose your privilege to complain. (On the other hand, this is the internet, so you are free to do anything you want. If you wish to complain, by all means, feel free to do! Others complaining doesn’t really affect me, so I tend not to care too much haha.) Anyway, one of the main reasons I made the list was because I wanted to see how many giveaways were unique. By the end of 2022, Epic Games Store will have given out 368 items, but if you check out the spreadsheet, you will note that only 331 of those are unique. Still, that is a huge number!

I can see your point. I should have been more specific. I believe that if Epic Games Store gives out X for free, it is illogical for people to complain why it was X and not Y. You are not forced to consume that product. You can simply choose not to claim the free game.

Yes, 331 is huge number, and taking in account that here are great titles: A Plague Tale, Total War Troy, Alien Isolation, Assassin's Creed Syndicate, Batman Trilogy, Bioshock Trilogy, Borderland 2, 3 an Prequel, Control ,GTA V, etc. only for name a few...

Exactly. I have tried to mark those great titles in the GG column using a star emoji (although the criteria also includes games that are priced $49.99 or higher, and not every expensive game is great). Right now, there are seventy-eight! (Note: Some entries such as Borderlands: The Handsome Collection and The Alto Collection include more than one game.)

I didn’t know this. Thank you! I will add it. The real pain would be manually updating the numbers in the markdown list haha.
Update: Since it was a one-off, I decided not to add it, but for anyone interested, here you will find some articles. It was free from December 4–31, 2015.

The logo on the cover does look like the mark of The Outsider but I wonder if it is the first one or the second one. I will be happy with either of them.

I was actually planning to buy the games during this winter sale but then decided to wait until the last minute so that I can see what are the game in next month's HB Choice. Feeling good now that I decided to wait. XD

since prime gaming gives 2nd dishonored for gog i guess same will be for epic!

The Outsider’s Mark on the mystery game cover definitely indicates it is going to be a Dishonored game. Based on the color scheme of the mystery game cover and the Outsider’s Mark, my guess would be Dishonored: Death of the Outsider.
Comment has been collapsed.
Wonder if it'll be Death of the Outsider which matches the color scheme, or the whole trilogy? I've been trying to sell trading cards and such to get D1's DLC on Steam which I hear you should play before D2 which is on Amazon Prime now, but getting all 3 in one place would be convenient.
Comment has been collapsed.
Well you got lucky at least! I won't have to buy the DLCs now either. 1 and 2 are plenty even without Death of the Outsider, and honestly I don't really know if that's a spinoff or a sequel or what. I just know there's red on the cover, lol.

It's very cool to see some fresh blood on this site and embracing the community aspect of SteamGifts like that and bringing their skill set and passion to the table.
Welcome to our nice weird little corner of the internet!

I don't need your sympathy.
Are you upset I manage my life well and have as much time as I'd like to do whatever I want? I don't see why that's my problem or why I should get insulted that you don't have as much time. I must be a no lifer with a huge ego because you can't prove me wrong but still reply to me. Type everything twice from now on so you can see what I have to reply to. I know I'm in the right, that doesn't mean I have a big ego. It's just common sense what I suggested.
As others mentioned, since you chose to carry your response here, especially after claiming you will not respond, you should of addressed the points, not respond just because you're upset. Once again talking about who you think is circling and whatever, but you've actually added 0 to the conversation. Like you can't even start it. Being upset things don't go your way doesn't mean you get to make false claims about others, it's childish.
I didn't ignore anything, you claimed you wanted out of the argument and hoped I wouldn't reply to you so you can feel the satisfaction of the last word. Long story short you are still wrong, nothing has changed.
I honestly don't understand why you have such a difficult time understanding bambi was already suspended and served it, then he made a non insulting comment to which other users chose to insult him again based on his previous comments he served a suspension on. What don't you get? Me defending someone I don't agree with is completely acceptable. You don't have to like it. It's the right thing to do.
Ah yes, it must be my fault that two other users were insulting bambi. Without even my first comment, it's my fault that happened. Because of some sort of paradox you live in? Wake up please. Stop being upset, are those two guys your friend or what? You can't defend them forever since they weren't right. I'm a troll because things don't go your way? Cry me a river, honestly. If you're wrong, you're wrong, just admit the defeat and move on.
Also don't suggest to me what to do with my new year, use a damn mirror and reconsider yourself first. You can't even defend your argument and talk nonsense for 4 posts straight we haven't discussed the topic you wanted to discuss because you refuse to do it out of ignorance, ego, pettiness, and of course your lack of an actual argument.. Again, wake up.
If you actually want to discuss the original topic, add me on steam so we don't waste more space in this thread, if not either admit you have no argument, or reply with whatever nonsense again because you can't defend your side and you can't accept that you could actually be wrong in an argument.
You're legit the "everyone better than me is cheating, everyone worse is a f***** loser" meme.

Bambi is annoying as fuck, but that doesn't give the rights to anyone to actively harass them after every unrelated comment of theirs.You calling reigifts' comments long, boring rants won't make this fact untrue, you're just supporting the harassment of users you don't like.
Now can this and move on with your life instead, because you're who's dragging that drama over here - despite you're blaming the other two.
Comment has been collapsed.
I'm not baiting, you guys are trying to bait me by replying with nonsense accusations and deflections that are unrelated to what you want to talk about. I'm even giving you guys the chance to add me on steam to discuss it in private so we don't clutter the thread. It's not me, it's you. Stop lying to others and accept the reality, you're mad because I wont let you live in fantasy land where everything goes your way. My replies go in detail explaining the reasoning for you so you understand why it's wrong. Your replies are all full of accusations and bouncing off the topic, because you have nothing to counter it. Again, you have the chance whenever to argue against me in private on steam.
I'll make this my last reply to you or volcanic, because honestly I already know neither of you have what it takes to add me and try and defend your argument. As I always do, I provide you plenty of chances to argue towards it, but if you don't, you and I are just wasting space ranting about nothing right now and going off the original topic. I understand this is your strategy as you have nothing constructive to add, but it's pathetic you guys didn't even try. Anyways, my steam's open if you want to discuss as I said even though I know you don't have what it takes. I'll let you have your last word, even though you've never said anything relevant to prove your point. Enjoy.
PS: Harassing and threatening people aren't covered by free speech. Common sense.

I don't like them, I didn't deny it. But it's not me dragging this flame war into this topic, it's you, blaming other people. And me not liking them is not equal to you holding a witchhunt and going after them after god knows how many points, because disliking somebody is allowed. Witchhunt is against the rules though, as harassment of users is not allowed.
You drag your vendetta here, flame somebody for what they wrote in another topic that you can't reply to, so you reignite that shit here too. And then you tell me to take a break because your childish behaviour is disrupting the forum? Stop stirring the pot up, and then you don't get replies about you making a mess, it's that simple.

Thanks for this. Also, happy to see you here, after our previous interaction!

I did think about doing that but considering that Mods are already swamped with extra work due to the holiday season with all the giveaways that are created, I didn't want to add to their load with stuff like this. So I decided to just ignore it for the time being. Hopefully, they will settle down now. Though looking at the huge walls of text, I'm not having much hope :(

I missed 1 or 2 games only.. But I missed the only one I actually would have wanted to try - Death Stranding..
The whole day I thought - oh whatever, its probably nothing special, I wont turn PC on specifically for that. And the next day - bam, noticed it was something I wanted to try. Irritated with myself as well for that :D
Comment has been collapsed.
Yup, hoping for that as well. But I don't see it happening for quit some time anyway :D
I have feeling I will more likely get it in a bundle before it turns up for free on epic again. Have to hope now for that to happen though. Fingers crossed for Humble Choice at some point
Comment has been collapsed.
its free again. Tomorrow will be ended for death stranding :)
Comment has been collapsed.
Thanks for reminding. I did manage to get it this time :D
But my hunch was right 4 months ago about DS ending up in a bundle. Got it in a choice in the end and already finished the game. But thanks for reminding :)

Hey, everyone.
Here is the complete and regularly updated list of all Epic Games Store free games. This is a continuation of letsmaybeLP92’s work, who maintained this in previous threads.
Epic Games Store offers free games every Thursday at 8 AM PT/11 AM ET. Once you have claimed them, they are yours forever.
For a more detailed list, check out this Google Sheets document. The spreadsheet includes
Note: To find out what the colors or stars in the spreadsheet mean, simply hover over the GG or Games field (or do the equivalent on your mobile device). There is a note assigned to each that provides the necessary explanation. See the attached image at the bottom of the post for reference.
In addition, here is a backup of this post in raw text.
