Green Man Gaming Thread: Save some green, man

Can I re-use that 30% off code? I'd love to pick up War in the North for $3.50, but I don't want to burn the code now only to find something I really want at $15+ a few days later :)

I think it's re-usable, and if not you can always make a new account, as you only need the Steam key.

I think GMG keeps track of IP addresses, though. Maybe a limit of two accounts per IP? I thought I've read that somewhere. I'm not sure though. Worth a shot anyway.

I have two accounts and both my roommates have an account and we've never had issues.
 
I need to use GMG during off hours, lol. I can't even go to my settings. I get a 500 error. Sucks being in the states....All I want is Sleeping Dogs for 11$ :(
 
Ended up getting Sleepy Dawgs, with the 30% coupon and the $4 cash-back. If you're going the cash-back route, don't worry about the "2-3 working days" thing, I paid with Paypal, and it immediately gave me a $4 partial refund.
 
Is there any reason why my bank doesn't like GMG anymore? I've made purchases through Paypal before but it's not cooperating with me now. Is it, for some strange reason, because I have a balance on my Paypal account? I don't see how that would affect it but it's the only thing that's different.

I think they were mistakenly labelled as an online gambling site. A lot of people have the same issue. It probably costs them a significant amount of money and it makes it hard to recommend their site for friends who aren't particularly savvy.
 
I tried repeatedly while at work to buy via paypal and two credit cards and nothing worked.

I get home, try paypal again and it works first try. Weird.
 
What was added for Arkham asylum GOTY? It's like $3.xx with the coupon code and I just have the regular edition, curoius if getting the GOTY is worth it.


And is the GMG30-DPLIM-DN831 code one use or multi use?
 
I've played like half an hour of Sleeping Dogs and the $7.90 has already paid for itself. The counter-strike-grapple combat is a mere notch below the fantastic Batman Arkham games. Fuckin' videogames never let me down, man.
 
Is there anyway to tell how much longer certain games will be on sale? I'm still debating sleeping dogs and devil may cry 4 but don't know when the sale for them ends.

Same, I love it!


Hooked it up to my 42' plasma and it looks insane. Great PC port.
 
Sleepy Dogs is about $16 on GMG right now. I've been wanting that game like crazy for the last few weeks, but my bank account is currently empty. I would be no problem if I got my cousin to buy the game and give me the steam key, right?

Yeah, that's not a problem. Make sure he uses the 30% coupon as well. GMG30-DPLIM-DN831

You can then get him to get you something else with the $6 GMG credit.

This is the first time I feel bad about a deal being good. That is just criminally low. Thanks for the quick reply.
 
It's a shame, but it looks like I wont be using Green Man Gaming to pre-purchase games anymore if they insist on having the "special" offers for every new release. I don't want store credit for a future purchase, I want my 25-30% off discount on new games ;p. Plus, you only get a decent amount off if you select wait until the release date and even then some games only give $10 or so.
 
Well that's weird, now that that fantastic Sleeping Dogs deal is gone my bank wants to play nice again. Oh well. Next time Gadget next time...

I don't understand your complaint at all, all of the those games allow for credit OR cash back so you don't need to have future credit. It's also much cheaper than any other service still so I'm not sure how that's a negative for GMG.
 
BF Premium is 67% off, and even cheaper if you apply the 30% code, coming in at £10.50. (Not sure what it comes to elsewhere.)

If you're looking for a time to pick this up, it's probably now.

Edit: Europe only... and it's ended.
 
Urgh, looks like the problem is actually on my side, since I've read on GMG website that some card companies "associate GMG with gambling". Can't even pay with PayPal, noooooo.

This happened to my after I bought DmC. I wanted to buy Tomb Raider too and bam, not able to do it.

:O It's still full price for me and I'm in the UK

Edit: Shit, checked it like 3 hours ago to see if it was on sale, wasn't. I go do some shit, come back, turns out it was on sale 2 hours ago, fml.

Considering its a Steamworks title, I suppose I could ask someone to just buy it for me and give me the key afterwards, right?

In how many hours would the sale end? It's 3am here and I'd rather go to sleep now but if there less than 8 hours left I guess I'll go looking for someone who can buy it right now.
 
Does GMG tend to try to get more keys for games on that same day once they go "OUT OF STOCK" or do they usually just let the sale die? I decided to finally get some sleep and woke up to find that I missed the GMG sale on Sine Mora once again. :(
