[Amazon Video Gamer]

Thanks! I'll be grabbing those for sure. I haven't even built my pc yet and I've already spent $50 on these deals...

Woohoo Next week's sale should help you build a pretty sweet back log at a really good price.

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.

thanks for posting this here! Like I said above, you'll be able to stock up next week.

When is the spring/easter sale?

I'll give you guys the run downs on the dates early next week. I'm still finalizing the end date and want to post all the info at once.

HOLY SHIT! I'm like frytakemymoney.jpg to you guys right now.

If you can, tell everyone involved that they are pretty fucking awesome (expletive use not a requirement )

Will do, verbatim!

Let us pray.

When does that sale start?

I see, it seems like Thursday could be the potential date.

See above .

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

This is correct.

Cheers,
Tony

That's like asking if an EA game is Steamworks.

I know, I know, Bioware dealwithit.gif

I had to ask. Those sons of mothers ><

Now I don't want them only due to my life being a little busier. Gamepad support is almost a must as I have a wireless DS3 acting as a 360 pad so no wire tripping from the kids. I guess it will just be LA Noire for now. I know I will likely get something else though.

I did just get a k750 solat keyboard and a nice Logitech M305. Both are outstanding and have great range so PC gaming with them shouldn't be an issue.

Thanks for letting me know! Sounds good enuff.

Do either of the DA PC ports have 360 pad support?

Believe me, this is not a matter of "but I want to be comfortable on a couch!" thing, you either play with the mouse and keyboard or get the console version for the pad support.

I loathed Dragon Age on console and thought it was a overhyped piece of crap, played it on PC and then I wanted to punch myself in the balls for ever thinking that.

 

[Barrow Roll]

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.

Well damn. I have a friend's US address for shipping but not for a billing address which I guess has to match my credit card.

Does anybody want to help me get Darksiders?

 

[hateradio]

That DA deal isn't available yet? I guess I'll wait.

LA Noire base game? I thought the PC version just came with all the DLC, or is that what you mean?

 

[speedline]

Will I like LA Noire if I liked Dreamfall, Indigo Prophecy, Heavy Rain, ect. or am I mistaken on what type of game it is?

I had the same experience. The initial impressions couldn't have been more different.

[Derrick01]

Some pretty good stuff listed. Definitely in for Crusader Kings 2 but that's probably it.

 

[zkylon]

The Darkness II for 12.50 seems to be a pretty good deal.

 

[ctrayne]

[Dice]

Shift 2 - Unleashed - 4.99
Why did I just get Blur for $5?

The Darkness II-12.49
Looks sweet.

Runaway A Twist Of Fate-3.99
The only one I'm missing.

Well I have Nikopol, Flatout, and Twin Sector. I wonder if I could work something out for one of these...

Spoiler

I know, not happening.

 

[zkylon]

The Saboteur for $5 is a great deal. One of my favorite cult hit games ever. Excellent atmosphere, good soundtrack, memorable characters, and some great one-liners. Think Saints Row meets Assassins Creed meets WW2-era Paris.

Kind of hoping for DRM-free versions of these games to start popping up. If I'm not mistaken, Saboteur has very mild DRM, if any.

Yeah I second this, The Saboteur was pretty enjoyable, if anything, because having almost an entire cast of non-americans made the game's story pretty refreshing. The black and white style is awesome, too.

all true. loved this game. definitely worth $5.

 

[Leon Belmont]

Thank you Tony, finally will buy The Saboteur

 

[Derrick01]

The Darkness II for 12.50 seems to be a pretty good deal.

Isn't it like a 4 hour game? I thought I saw some people in the steam thread talk about it.

That's a $5 or less game for me.

 

[canadian crowe]

So, goes the GTA IV complete edition ever go on sale? GTA IV is only $5, but I'm in no rush to replay it.

 

[Dice]

A 4 hour FPS? Is that some kind of joke?

 

[AlexBasch]

I'm somewhat curious about GTA4, but last thing I heard is that it requires a beefy CPU, mine is a E5400@ 2.7GHZ, maybe I can get through with my 5670 but we'll see...I checked in CanYouRunIt and says that it works on minimum but I'm bit skeptic about those sites.

EDIT: I'd get The Saboteur if I'd didn't compete it on the Xbox, is definitely one fine game and at $5 you should jump on this. Some of the game aspects are a bit wonky, but overall is a very good game.

 

[Derrick01]

A 4 hour FPS? Is that some kind of joke?

I just took a look at the Kotaku review, because they list what they like and didn't like so if it was short then it would be quick to find. This is what they said

Short. The campaign is short. Like, you could finish it in 3-4 hours. And that's including the awful "story" sequences I'm about to get to. If this game had a large and robust multiplayer component that'd be fine, but it doesn't. There's multiplayer, yeah, and story-based co-op at that, but it's not much fun. It plays like a slippery, more chaotic game of Left 4 Dead, and will only be of interest to those with an interest in the game's story.

 

[Volcynika]

I'd say 4-5 hours (based on Steam playtime) and co-op is pretty fun.

 

[zkylon]

Isn't it like a 4 hour game? I thought I saw some people in the steam thread talk about it.

That's a $5 or less game for me.

Oh, that's no small detail.

Will ponder.

[IMACOMPUTA]

my wallet is going to cry... :/

 

[Stallion Free]

I am so down for The Darkness II at 12.50$ since they just put out an FOV patch.

 

[DenisQc]

did not checked the other products, but Kingdom of Amalur is already at 39.99
and with the 10$ coupon for 5$ around last week, it makes a good deal....
will not sleep tonight thanks to Amazon

 

[phantomspiker]

I am so down for The Darkness II at 12.50$ since they just put out an FOV patch.

I think that it's worth it at that price, I paid 25 for it a few weeks ago and just beat it the other day after the FOV patch came out. It took me about 5 and a half hours to beat it on the third difficulty setting (out of four).

 

[Ledsen]

Why aren't the deals live yet? It's been the 4th for quite a while...

Check again... They start on the 5th, the 4 stands for the month

 

[Scythian]

I've been waiting for a Serious Sam 3: BFE deal, but I'm checking Steam game stats and, are there people still playing?

I couldn't find any multiplayer games when I played it about a month ago. I wasn't surprised it was dead though.

 

[MrOogieBoogie]

The Darkness II for 12.50 seems to be a pretty good deal.

Yeah, can anyone comment on this?

I'm a sucker for atmosphere, and this one seems teeming with it. Is that accurate? (Never played the first one.)

 

[Phanatic8390]

Good line up but I've got everything I would be interested in already. I was hoping for Mass Effect 3 deal but I can keep waiting. I've been meaning to replay 2 with FemShep so that can hold me over until an Amazon deal.

 

[zkylon]

Saints Row The Third is Steamworks, right?

15 bucks (using my 10$ coupon) + Steam is a purchase for me.

Does it still hate ATI cards or whatever the problem was?

Different games, both are good last time i checked.

Probably not but is Shift 2 SteamWorks?

No.

Excellent graphics, action and plenty of atmosphere, some reminiscent of One flew over the Cuckoos Nest. Very much worth the price.
