Oops, looks like Amazon's M&B Warband isn't Steam redeemable.
Learn from my mistake.

 

[Sagitario]

Risen is up and remember, Its DRM free. Tages-less Freedom for all!

Also if you already purchased the version with tages. Redownload this one for it without it.

Is Risen good?
I don't have time to play it or even try it, but it's cheap enough

 

[scitek]

So Risen doesn't have Tages? I see the TagesClient.dat in the folder, does that matter?

 

[TheUsual]

So Risen doesn't have Tages? I see the TagesClient.dat in the folder, does that matter?

Same here, it's in my "bin" folder as well. Maybe just a left over necessary file?

Another note: I had the D2D version of this game and I remember having to activate it with Tages, but I didn't have to with the Amazon version.

Okay, well that's good. I was able to just jump into the game after installing it. I was just checking. I don't intend on playing it for a while, but it's on my list.

Didn't have to punch in a CDkey or click anything outside install on the amazon downloader and the normal, hit typical or custom install

 

[Sagitario]

So, Risen: yes or no? Is it a must play?
Like I said, I won't be able to play it anytime soon, but it seems cheap enough.

 

[bhlaab]

Like I said, I won't be able to play it anytime soon, but it seems cheap enough.

It depends on who you are. If you played and enjoyed Gothic or Gothic 2 then it is a must play. If you enjoy RPGs more than casually then it is a must play. If you prefer slow, thoughtfully technical combat it's a good bet as well.

If you're into RPGs casually and like flashy, fast, combo-centric combat you might not like it.

 

[scitek]

Oh shit, someone killed bhlaab mid-post.

 

[shintoki]

I normally function like so when I'm unsure if I will play it or will it be backlogged.

1. Cheapest price games normally get to.
Normal Absolute min:20$ MSRP. Steam sale takes off 75%. 5$.
Current is 30 MSRP. Cheapest to date was 7.50$ and they still include TAGES.

1$ different between the two and that is an If they lower it on Steam and remove TAGES

To note, this attitude is why I have a massive backlog. Though I don't think of it as being all that harmful since it has caused me to stop buying games right away... I still make mistakes though.

 

[etiolate]

My amazon download keeps losing connection. Is anyone else having this problem or is it likely an issue on my side?

I guess I will pass. Thank you, both.

Deal live. Risen for 5.99.

Thanks for the heads up. Picked this up today and I'm really enjoying it.

 

[Dwayne]

Duke Nukem Mac is back in stock (can activate on steam for PC)

 

[Nelo Ice]

So I guess Amazon forced Deep Silver to remove tages off the steam version since apparently they're releasing an update soon to remove it.

 

[Swag]

Are the games purchased off of Amazon DD activatable on Steam?

 

[Basileus777]

Are the games purchased off of Amazon DD activatable on Steam?

Yes, but only for Steamworks games.

 

[The_End]

If anybody has an extra code that they're not gonna use, I'd like to have one.

I'm kinda interested in picking up Spore. But truth be told, I'm really only kinda interested in it. My interest in it is really only because it's so cheap with the coupon. So if nobody has a spare code, or you don't wanna give one to a newbie like me, no big deal. I just thought I'd ask in case somebody out there has more codes than they know what to do with.

Edit: Well, it's too late now.

 

[Zizbuka]

If someone could PM me an extra code, I'd really appreciate. I'd like to pick up Spore for my son. We've been playing Darkspore and loving it, I already have Spore in Steam. Like to get him a copy too.

 

[Catshade]

Damn, wish I didn't use my code for Duke Nukem Forever. I've been waiting for the Dragon Age games on big sale. :|

 

[Bradach]

any know if we can digitally shop on US Amazon from EUR region?

You have to use a US postal address, but Amazon won't check your IP or anything like that.

 

[Bradach]

Excellent. One more question. When downloading through Steam or Origin, will there be any issues with a US version of a game being downloaded by an EUR account?

You called?

No issues with regions on Steam, not sure about Origin though.

 

[Everdred]

Any extra codes? I'll have man babies. I want Bulletstorm!

 

[Bradach]

thanks, onemorequestion

 

[Madrugador]

I believe you can only activate Civilization V in the US. I cannot confirm it though.

 

[Keys]

Anyone want Dragon Age Origins: Ultimate Edition code for $ 5,00? I bought the pack but only needed Dragon age 2.

 

[Castor Krieg]

Got Alice for 2.49$ after redeeming the code, feels good man. Activated in Germany without trouble.

PM'd.

 

[Silex]

Well, if anyone knows he won't be using any more coupons, I'd appreciate them a lot

 

[Thrakier]

How did you do that? I'd like to buy Alice and Risen but I don't know how.

 

[Refreshment.01]

Again, i need some codes. I have some Steam coupons i could change and i think a game. Please let me know.

 

[rockx4]

I have 2 codes left I think, not sure if one might have been used. Send me a PM.

Edit: codes are gone

 

[gdt]

Not to be a beggar, but does anyone have a code they won't use? Would like to get Burnout for free. I can gift you a 33% off Valve coupon!

 

[Castor Krieg]

How did you do that? I'd like to buy Alice and Risen but I don't know how.

I had the 5$ off coupon from buying Dungeon Siege 3 in December, Amazon was even sending me reminder e-mails that I can use the coupon with EA titles on sale, lol.

As for buying the game itself - I used some address for a car store in Delaware, as I heard there is no online tax for addresses registered there. Didn't have US credit card as well.

But I can't even chose a different adress. After the login I'm on the buying screen and I can't do anything there.

Burnout isn't eligible for the coupon.

 

[MrOogieBoogie]

Well, just picked up Alice: Madness Returns for $2.49!

Can't wait to try it out. I'm a sucker for atmosphere and art direction.

 

[Castor Krieg]

But I can't even chose a different adress. After the login I'm on the buying screen and I can't do anything there.

You should be able to change your BILLING ADDRESS in the bottom-right corner, directly below the payment method.

Ah, thanks, that just works! Now I'd need such a coupon...where do I get one?

 

[Ifrit]

Bought Crysis Maximun, and with that I'm officially out of coupons

 

[Refreshment.01]

I want to pick up Alice, if you are going to give up the code at least call me to trade for some coupons, it's better than nothing
