Anybody buying a bundle with Bioshock that doesn't want it?

I've already got Bioshock 2.

 

[vidcons]

Make that $19.99.

And if you bought it when it was $30, you'll get $10 credit back from Amazon.

Hot damn.

Good game, pick it up.

 

[Autofokus]

Make that $19.99.

And if you bought it when it was $30, you'll get $10 credit back from Amazon.

Automatically, or do I need to notify them? Bought it a few days ago (Deal of the week thing) for 30$.

According to Tony, it'll get applied automatically and can be used towards any digital video games Amazon sells.

This is awfully tempting. Must resist....

 

[fluffydelusions]

If anyone doesn't want homefront in the bundle I'll take it.

 

[Henry Jones Jr]

I've still got a code for Metro 2033 if anyone wants it. I'd like to give it out before I forget I have it.

You could always do what I'm doing and be broke. It really puts an abrupt stop on any temptation lol.

 

[Sober]

They are. As long as you use gift cards you can buy from any store you want.

Well, I'm from Canada, so can I buy a US Amazon one with my filthy Canadian CC?

 

[RedSwirl]

Fuck. Hitman is $20 (on PC) now. How much longer are these deals supposed to last? Maybe I should play a bit more of my 360 rental copy.

Apparently up to the 22nd for Absolution. I honestly don't see Steam pushing it that low even through the Winter Sale. Even if so, it'd only be surprising and you wouldn't be losing much either way.

Yes.

 

[twinturbo2]

I bought the 2K Games Strategy Pack, and the titles in that bundle are showing up twice for me in my Steam library.

Anybody else have this problem?

 

[Cheesecakebobby]

Lego PotC worth 7.50? Enjoyed Harry and Batty.

There may be Mac versions?

 

[twinturbo2]

Not according to the product descriptions...

 

[Sober]

Civ 4 is Steamplay, so it has both Windows and Mac versions.

 

[Tizoc]

OK now THIS Civilization bundle is quite tempting:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00AMKTR48/?tag=neogaf0e-20

I take it has all the Civ 5 dlc in GotY right?

GOTY Civ 5 is only missing Korea and World Wonders IIRC. You can always grab them, seeing as the winter sale on Steam will be coming up. Probably like 3 bucks or so. Honestly, with all the content you get from GOTY + G&K alone, you could probably hold off until you feel like you've exhausted a bit of it (same advice to those before a GOTY version came out).

If you feel like a completionist though, it'll be available pretty cheap in the coming weeks, so I wouldn't worry about it too much.

 

[Tizoc]

Thanks for the feedback. Hmm well seeing as CiV 5 Gold is on the way I may just wait for that (to go on sale), a shame as if this had all the DLC, I would've gotten it and at least gifted the other 2 on Steamgifts @3@.

 

[Fantastical]

I haven't bought it, but I'm pretty sure it's Mac versions. A review for Civ IV on Amazon mentions that the Mac version is included with the PC download key.

The same thing happened to me with the GTA collection. I bet when you look at each version there is only one that you can install (the other version being Mac).

You're correct, I can only install one of them. Hm, wonder why this is the case.

 

[Tizoc]

I'd like feedback on these digital titles please mainly if they are region-free, and if there are mods that can improve performance or the graphics:
Ghostbusters Sadly Ghostbusters is NOT available in my Steam region for whatever retarded reason =/

Prince of Persia: Sands of time Link doesn't say if it's Steam redeemable.

Culpa Innata Is this a Steam redeemable ver.?

 

[CosmicQueso]

Ghostbusters Sadly Ghostbusters is NOT available in my Steam region for whatever retarded reason =/

You must have earned some good gaming karma if the universe wants to prevent you from spending money on that. Listen to the universe. Turn around and walk, nay, run, run away and don't look back. Don't ever look back.

They're neither region-locked nor Steam-redeemable.

 

[Tizoc]

^Thanks for the info JaseC.

...but I liked the PS3 ver.

 

[Jake Tower]

How the F do you install a GFW game downloaded from Amazon (Bioshock 2)?

I downloaded Amazon downloader, it downloaded 7 gigs to my desktop! Then ran the installer, was left with no run game .exe, no place to input the activation key, nothing. WTF?

Why the fuck can't this just be Steam?!?!

 

[hardcastlemccormick]

Prince of Persia: Sands of time Link doesn't say if it's Steam redeemable.

This one is $5 on GOG.com.

 

[Harbinger of War]

Heads up: This Thursday and Friday, Darksiders + Darksiders II + All DS II DLC for $13.19.

Tony strikes again.

 

[Felix Lighter]

I have to calibrate my impulse control to take into account multiple competing massive sales that are all going on at or around the same time.

 

[Doomrider]

Heads up: This Thursday and Friday, Darksiders + Darksiders II + All DS II DLC for $13.19.

What the fuck. That's ridiculous. That's awesome. And ridiculous.

 

[Amzin]

Any word on Lego LOTR? Wife and I are looking forward to that and I'm hoping it really does get a nice discount.

 

[Detruire]

Why the fuck can't this just be Steam?!?!

There are two versions of the Bioshock pack: one with Steam keys and one without.

You could try contacting Amazon and mentioning the problems that you're having. I made the same mistake with the Majesty bundle a while back, and they ended up giving me a refund.

 

[Miker]

It'll be $7.50 some time soon. Not sure when, but I'm pretty sure it's been confirmed by Tony at CAG.

 

[jediyoshi]

Huh? What installed? The key goes into GFWL while you're in the game.

Awesome!

 

[ThoseDeafMutes]

Is Hitman likely to go any lower than 20 on the Steam Sale?

 

[Toki767]

Is Hitman likely to go any lower than 20 on the Steam Sale?

Probably not on Steam itself. Always a chance from Amazon or Green Man Gaming though.

 

[ThoseDeafMutes]

Probably not on Steam itself. Always a chance from Amazon or Green Man Gaming though.

Considering getting it now then. It's a code I can register on steam, not a physical disc, right?

I dun goofed. I'll see if I can get Amazon to refund it or somehow exchange it for the Steam package.

 

[ThoseDeafMutes]

Is anybody willing to nab me a Hitman Absolution code in exchange for $20 on paypal? Soon is preferred since I'm heading off to my Graduation ceremony shortly.

 

[CosmicQueso]

Sure... but the PC version is notoriously fickle, crashes and sometimes won't even install.

 

[Retro_]

Yes, co-op is great and the campaign's art alone is worth $5.
It's also a shooter with boss fights, I know many here miss that.

Do you need an Origin account to play it?

(No idea how Origin works)

 

[JLG-]

Same thing happened to me. I bought the wrong version. Emailed Amazon and they refunded me the money.

 

[kiunchbb]

I just want to come in and say "Spec Ops - The Line" is really amazing. I don't even like to play FPS, hated Bios 1 + 2, but Spec Ops by itself is worth every pennies.

I'd be interested in it if it wasn't only discounted as part of that pack with the Bioshocks (which I already own.)

 

[Minion101]

That story was pretty good for a game. Certainly worth $10.

Yep
