Hmm well shit. I accidentally bought the Desert to Sea bundle because I thought there would be another confirmation window. It's only $5 but I'm not sure when I'll play Bioshock 2 or Spec Ops.
Dude, you gotta play Spec Ops. I'm currently at Chapter 11 or 12 and its good. Don't blow it off until you try it.

Thanks a lot for this.

And its confirmed that its actually multiple $5 coupons but only 1 can be redeemed per game?
 
That is correct. They don't stack.

I had a feeling they wouldn't stack (which is a shame but understandable from Amazon's side) but i wanted confirmation on if it was more than 1 since for some reason the concept of only getting 1 came into my head recently (i guess the publisher coupons were to blame).


Thanks

Will pick up NBA at that price.

I don't even know all the rules to the damn sport, but have been playing 2k12 a lot lately.

Spec Ops is incredible. It's not your conventional shooter. Currently on my second playthrough. Don't read about it and just play it.

I almost feel bad about getting xcom on steam after all the gmg crap now that it will be $20 on amazon, but man, I already put 20 hours into it. Amazing game, will happily pay full price for a sequel if they do one.
 
Did they end the sale for Max Payne 3 early? I really only wanted two games--that and Dark Souls. Figured I'd buy DS and use the coupon on MP3 after Jan 1.

Looks like I should have done that in reverse...

What are the odds of MP3 dropping back to sale (and Steam) level pricing?

What do you know, it's back on sale. Looks like I played that right! Thanks Amazon!

Would someone be willing to get me Dark Souls from Amazon for that $12.99 price? Most I can do right now is gift a game from Steam around of equal value.

I'm not expecting anyone to agree but figured it wouldn't hurt to ask.

..I shouldn't have wasted the last of my money on a steam card =/
 
desert to the sea bundle for $5? When specs op is $15 by itself at amazon and pricey elsewhere?

sold!


now... secret world or amalur or max payne 3.


I'm tempted by secret world. Love how it looks and the fact that the game is going to be cheaper to buy then what used to be its monthly sub fee.

In my haste to grab Max Payne 3 after the price-match, I grabbed the non steam version. Naturally I only noticed after trying to put the activation key into steam and steam telling me it wasn't a steam key.

Anyone interested in grabbing a non steam version of MP3 on the cheap (6-7$)?

You can just contact Amazon support to change it to Steam version (or, the worst case scenario, they will give a refund).

If I were to spend $10 (after coupon), which one is the best: Max Payne 3, Mass Effect 3, or Kingdoms of Amalur + DLC?

They're all fine for $10, wouldn't touch ME3 though unless you'd played at least 2.
KoA will get you the chunkiest amount of gameplay by far though

It's the true story of a soldier named Captain Walker's heroic deeds in the middle east. Really "FUCK YEAH AMERICA" vibe to it.
This is what I assume to be a sarcastic post.

Spec Ops is the anti-Call of Duty. Everything that modern shooters aren't. Get it, you won't regret it. And don't read anything about it--just go into it blind.

Dude, you gotta play Spec Ops. I'm currently at Chapter 11 or 12 and its good. Don't blow it off until you try it.

It's a combination of cousins coming over and eating up my bandwidth and I don't really care about story driven games. I'll try it eventually but there are other stupid purchases from this sale I need get through first. :p

Agreed. COD can be fun to play.

Might bite on xcom, rest of that list is stuff I already have or can wait for cheaper on.
Would bite on MOH if it was 15

I don't know if you're exaggerating for comedic purposes, but the gameplay in Spec Ops is not bad at all. It could do with some tweaks, maybe to help distinguish it from other shooters, sure, but it's perfectly functional and fun.

I really enjoyed when the gameplay came together and I would into a sprint rather than snapping to cover, bouncing off the cover object and getting gunned down.

I'm at 13 right now, and the game is amazing. Surprise no one put the OST part of their GOTY listings. Everyone has a hardone for Hotline.....Is great, but this one should be mentioned.

hmm I may use this to pick up ME3 to go along with the bundle I got off of steam. Nothing beats paying $20 for the whole trilogy.

Any news on how long will the 7.49 price on Hotline Miami will last? I might go for that one, but the Darkness 2 bundle is tempting at 4.99, even if I have DNF and Borderlands GOTY already.

The only trouble I've had so far was not getting into cover immediately after pressing the button to do so. It's a rare ocurrence and not enough to make it unenjoyable. Other than that, shit works just fine.

If that kind of stuff happens so frequently as to get in the way of your enjoyment, sure, I guess the game's controls can potentially get a bit wonky, but that's not been my experience.

I'm thinking between Kingdoms and Mass Effect 3. Kingdoms I liked the demo and everything, but all the impressions killed it for me with the quazzi MMO. While I want to finish the ME trilogy since I did enjoy 1 and 2.

Go with Mass Effect 3, in my opinion, especially since you know you like that series. Ending debacle aside, it's a very nice game.

Amalur makes a decent first impression but that doesn't last long, poor tuning and bog standard design. Just makes for a very uninteresting product.
