Wtf, the icon for the code is still on the main page and says it's valid until the 28th.
Thanks.

Yeah but the site is shitting itself.
You get BS1, X-Com, a game of your choice from the list, plus Infinite.
The UK site has it for the cheapest price right?
If you are referring to the bundles, yes.. Getting onto the site and ordering is another issue altogether.
Not sure about that since I hadn't bought it from GMG but from Amazon, yet the game didn't show in the cart and the key was under Bioshock Infinite after the purchase instead of being under its own listing, so there is a chance it could award it even if you already own the game from them.
Still it is probably better to see if there is something about it on their site (when it's available again XD).
You're right, looks like they extended the time. The code worked on Sega games earlier.

Yup, £24 ($36) for the bundle in the UK.

Can I access the UK site through proxy or something?

Been refreshing the pages for like an hour, still can't access my keys.

Site seems to be back still can't check my keys though.
They said they took the keys page down because people spamming it was slowing the sending of the keys via email.
If you bought the game they'll send the keys by email
I already had xcom but am still expecting them to send me the key for another one - I won't be able to redeem on steam but I can gift it to someone

People hammering the site and raising support requests just because they haven't got their key yet. Classic. GMG need to sort this out and people need to learn to wait until they have the keys.
Stuck on the processing page. Went with PayPal because they were forcing Verified by Visa.

Same here...Now the order is still stuck at the processing page. And money has not been taken yet though.

Happened to me last night, eventually it just crashed. I didn't get a confirmation email but Civ 5 and Bioshock were showing on my games page but only Bioshock on the keys page. No idea if the order went through properly.

Even after clearing the browser, order processing page is still there. Looks like our accounts are in limbo and will need customer support to cancel the order. We can't rebuy right now.
e. Went through after about 20 minutes.
ee. No XCOM or Infinite yet.

Yeah same. Even logged in and out, with a different browser. I will just exit the page and wait it out. Already submitted a ticket for support.
Oh crap, I should have read this thread first. I'm stuck on order processing too.

That is not how GMG proxies work. The prices you get depend entirely where your region was when you first created your account. I used a US proxy during account creation, which means whenever I log in anywhere I will get USD prices.
GMG will never give you region locked games so there are exceptions. All EA games are priced in Pounds and Namco Bandai games are in Euros anyway. But because you don't have to worry about region locked games, I recommend that all people with Euros in their GMG account remove their payment info, change their address in their current account and then create a new account through US proxy.
Euro GMG is a huge ripoff and not worth using at all because they give you more expensive prices but their cash back/gmg credit deals do not scale accordingly. It's like they give you two middle fingers at once.

Seem to be having trouble accessing keys/games list on the site. Anybody else with similar problem?
Fair enough.
I went with the ANZ pricing. 51 USD is still a great price for what you get... except I already have all of the free games, and am not even remotely interested in Bioshock Infinite. Fucking bargains...
Will probably register Infinite and give away the other three at some point.

They've disabled the keys page until the Bioshock rush has died down (it was hammering their site). If you're waiting for your Bioshock or pre-order bonus games, periodically check your email.
IDK, I wouldn't say that paying 35-38 euros for a brand new game counts as a huge ripoff.

That's weird. I'm in a non-UK Europe zone and I see all the prices in USD. For example, the Bioshock Infinite preorder is $45 and no cashback options.
Maybe that's because we don't use Euros though.
They email you the keys anyway so you don't have to access the site, for infintie i read that the demand is so high they have disabled you viewing your keys/games. Check your email.

Industrial Revolution is redeemed at the Fink Manufacturing site, who THEN give you a key to redeem on steam...which requires you to have already redeemed your Bioshock Infinite key on steam to use

Bleh, I spent hours doing that last night.
Down to a much more conservative once per 5m.
So..you're buying infinite even though you don't care about it, and getting three free games that you already have?
ThoseDeafMutes
Member
Bought, past tense.
And yes. I don't even have the free time to play the game for the next few months, even if I did want to. I have a problem.

Seriously confused the hell out of me. Too early in the morning to play inception.
When did you pre-purchase?

A week or so ago, I think? I'd be able to tell you if GMG wasn't sitting in a wheel-chair with right now.
It was certainly before they decided to throw in X-Com with it.
I've had this pre-purchased for months now and still no key.
GMG can't deny dat Legacy swagger.

Yeah, bought last Saturday and still no key.
This happens quite often with me, never get the email in time and usually only get the key from the tabs section. But since that is closed off I have to wait.
