Green Man Gaming Thread: Save some green, man

Looks like they extended the 25% off deal until friday. I think the best plan of attack for anyone wanting both XCOM and Dishonored is to grab XCOM now and just wait a day or so after launch to grab Dishonored using the $10 and 25% together.
 
Did anyone get their Civ 5 and $10 credit yet? I don't know if I beat the deadline for XCom. I pre-ordered a few hours before the game unlocked.
 
Made the same mistake, then I remembered 8=August, and that it would be very odd for a UK site to use the US date system.

... Ofcourse, if you click the banner at the side (goes here) it says it runs until the 12th. Fuck it, I'm assuming the earlier date.
Extended til Friday would theoretically let us stack the $10 off with the 25% off. Fingers crossed.
 
So, I tried using the site for the first time today. When I tried to use my card to buy something, it sent me to my bank's page to verify everything. But, it came back as an error and said to check with my payment provider before trying to pay again. Has anyone had this happen to them?

This just happened to me. I tried using Paypal and GMG automatically refunded me. What the fuck.
 
got my $10, no Civ 5 yet

I would totally use GMG if the website performance wasn't so terrible.
Everything i click takes like 4 minutes to load.

Edit: Plus i'm trying to add XCOM to my cart, and I click XCOM, click purchase, and.......................... Nothing
 
Yeah, the site needs some work on the backend. Most everything takes ages to load. Especially when there's traffic.

Had four items open at once, clicked Buy Now on all of them. Each tab would load with only one item in the basket. Hit Remove on all of them and was to start over, more slowly this time. Couldn't add anything. Get 500'd when I try to add a game from the Hot Deals section now for some reason.
 
Anyone else still waiting for the $10 XCOM credit?

Or do you not receive an email, but you can see it on the GMG website? Dammit being at work!
 
I haven't gotten $10 credit nor Civ 5 yet.

The credit should appear on your GMG account, you won't receive an email.

I'm not sure about Civ V. I do hope it can be gifted because I already own it.

EDIT: OK I did get Civ V. Go to your account on GMG's website, click games, then keys, then XCOM.

The Civ V key is below your XCOM key.

Nope, don't have either on my GMG account.

You didn't have to do anything special apart from pre-order to get the $10, did you? Or was it a US only offer?
 
Man gmg is so weird, I have a main account with them, and I have a second one which I signed up with for that 2$ credit.

I try and buy something with the second account to take advantage of the 2$ credit, says the bank wont allow it (im using paypal)

So I flip to my main account and use the same payment method and it goes through lol
 
I've reset my password 2 or 3 times now and I can't log in to the website.

It's a good thing GMG has had great prices lately because I sure wouldn't be coming back otherwise. I have technical problems every time I try to buy anything from their site.

::edit::
What do you know, I got the username/password thing figured out but now it's not authorizing my PayPal payment. This is a shocking turn of events.

I'm still having my PayPal problems and they ain't answering my support tickets

They answered my first one pretty quickly with a stock "it's probably your own security settings" type answer. When I responded that it's the exact same computer and exact same security settings as I've used to buy from them before I got no response. I supplied a previous support ticket from a few months ago where I got the same error message and they said they "reset" something on my account and it worked fine but I still got no response.

I was ultimately able to complete the purchase on my phone.
 
Try asking got help on their FB page. The guy in charge of the GMG blog seems to help people there fairly quickly.
 
That 20% off code is working now, just used it on DOOM 3 BFG edition. I should have pulled the trigger a few days aago with the 25% off code instead. Theres $1.50 I won't get back

So no new 25% one? Oh man. I only *just* discovered that GMG is pretty much the only place to buy WRC3 digitally. Amazon doesn't work and there's literally nowhere else I can find.
