This is something we're currently working on. I don't have a solid timeline to execution yet though. Sorry I don't have more info, hopefully we'll get this content up and running soon.

You're welcome, happy to help!Thanks for posting this
Recently on CAG you mentioned an upcoming sale in early April on "301 casual games for $2.99 each". As for me, while being slightly interested in casual games, the real interest would be for my normally non-gamer family members, which brings up the point about possibly getting the ability in the future to gift games through some kind of redeemable code/key that you could send in an email. That kind of solution would be great. The only other I see is to compile a list of potential casual games that they might like, and buying and giving them a gift certificate along with that list. I prefer the more convenient option of simply being able to purchase something I think they would enjoy, but something that they also would most likely never purchase themselves, even with the gift certificate.
Also, not to harp on it too much, the ability to purchase multiple titles at once.

This is definitely something we all think would be awesome and is on the roadmap. I just don't have any sort of announcement to make right now regarding timeline.

I have been on the fence about Space Marine for a couple of months now, but I think I'll definitely bite for this price. Also STALKER.
Amazing sale Tony!
Amazing sale Tony!
I keep hearing it's quite a frustrating FPS, like enemies needing shitloads of bullets to get killed but not as a matter of difficult but as a design flaw, I'm still curious about it.

There is a "ranger" mode, where both you and enemies take a lot more damage. Basically fixes what you're talking about, and everything else about the game is awesome.

I assume that because Amazon has the Steam requiring "Warhammer 40k: Dawn of War II Retribution" base game, that DLC packs that state the requirement of the "Warhammer 40k: Dawn of War II Retribution" base game also are Steam activating as well? This goes for Saints Row: The Third base game and DLC, Warhammer 40k: Space Marine base game and DLC, and Homefront base game and DLC.
I just hate buying something without being absolutely certain about it.

The Chaos Unleashed and Dreadnaught Assault (which doesn't seem to be part of the deals, although Amazon sells it) are MP map packs, and the Power Sword is a DLC exclusive melee weapon (not just a reskin). The rest of DLCs are cosmetic stuff.
With that being said, I find the discounts for the DLCs very poor
For example, Chaos Unleashed would only be 25% off. Damn it, I want it cheaper so I can get more achievements!

Epic THQ sale, niiiiice.
it's totally worth $5. that change sucks, but it's still fun as hell to use their weapons/mechs to blow shit up, underground or not.

I'm noticing a shitload of DLC for Space Marine, is there MP map packs or it's just cosmetic stuff?
I suppose I'll bite then, thanks.

Hey guys just dropping a line that this actually starts on Sunday, not today. That post on CAG was a typo on my part! Sorry about that.
Cheers,

Yeah I guess for $5 it doesn't matter too much if it sucks.

Get it, it's good. I felt the same way that it would suck since it's linear now but i took a shot at 5 bucks and it's still fun simply because destroying everything is so cool. No other game engine like GeoMod 2.0. Well worth the fiver.

You can still get into matches but only at certain times of the day. When you do it's really fun but most the people are hardcore so good luck if you decide to give it a try.

So I've never used Amazon DD before so hopefully someone can answer a few questions, since I don't see an FAQ in the OP.
Are these deals US only? I'm in Canada if that makes any difference.
Do I need to download another client? I just want to grab Darksiders when it goes on sale it looks like it activates on Steam, so I guess I'd just get the CD key and punch that into Steam without even having to download the game?

Yes, US only. Make an account with a US address or ask someone to buy the game if Steam or Origin registrable. No client unless it is game side so if a game requires Steam all you need is the code. And keep in mind that you can only download the games through the Amazon account if they are not registrable on Origin or Steam.
Got to report it. Go to Assasin Creed's page and go to the bottom, and click on 'Report a lower price" or something like that.
For those on the fence about Armageddon, I did a video on it after having been in the same situation as you a month ago. http://www.bloody-disgusting.com/news/videogames/2330
Get it.

People on CAG are saying that the spring sale might have Dragon Age 1 and 2 (amongst other things). Any details on this yet?
This is damn tempting. Does it still require to be online always?

I was just going to ask if that's what I got on sale last time. And if you were cool, you would have gotten it for $7 last time.

Actually I didn't get to use my 5$ off on DA, but instead on Crysis IIRC.

Some part of the upcoming Easter Sale
55% off Crusader Kings II, Defenders of Ardania, and King Arthur II
Also, L.A. Noire base game for $4.99.

I haven't got my videocard yet, but I have many great cheap games already, good to be back on PC after so long. I see why people have backlogs.

WOWOW, I can't even resist that price.
WOWOWOW, is LA Noire Steamworks or GFWL? For 5, I'm all in on that one. Incredible.
Pretty sure it's Steamworks. I know the steam version is at least, but I'm like 80% sure it's full steamworks.
Nabs

It's only Steamworks (Cheese) when you buy on Steam. I don't think it's GFWL at all.

When does that sale start?
I see, it seems like Thursday could be the potential date.

No, you'll just have one copy of DA Origins and one copy of DA Origins Ultimate (with Awakening and all the DLC.)
