News:: GOG gave us 270(!) games to give away, come win a free game

You know what the big bummer about contests is? You always have a chance to win, but that chance is usually fairly low. Even if only 50 people entered, you'd still have like a 10 percent chance of winning if there were 5 prizes. The odds are rarely in your favor.

I aced my freshman year statistics class so I feel comfortable making the following assertion: The more prizes in a contest, the higher the probability (statistics term) is that you will be a winner. So, if we had something insane, like, I don't know, 270 games to give away, you'd have fairly decent odds of getting a free game. 

That's a mighty convenient example because, as it turns out, we have exactly 270 games to give away. In honor of its Valentine's Day sale, GOG gave us 270 codes to give to our readers. TWO HUNDRED AND SEVENTY. Here's the breakdown:
