Green Man Gaming Thread: Save some green, man

Oh come ON! Card declined. First for Dead Island, then for Deus Ex, now for Saints Row. My fucking bank needs to stop this bullshit.

Saints Row: The Third is 40 dollars in the US? And 34 with the discount? Damn, it's about 42 euros in The Netherlands.
Yeah they don't like customers who are close to where they are based. They prefer the dollar.
 
Some of deals I've gotten this year from GMG and others

Batman : AC for $25
Deus Ex for $34
Dead Island for $34
Saints Row 3 for $26

Fucking love PC gaming.

Nice, I've got a similar haul from GMG:

Deus Ex HR $28 (this was at release day too)
Dead Island $34 (also release day)
LotR War in the North $38
Saints Row $34
 
You guys didn't take advantage of the referrals!

I got:

Deus Ex: $27
Dead island: $10
AvP: $3?
Red Orchestra 2: $10
Battlefield 3: $3.xx
Batman Arkham City: free
Sonic Generations: free
 
For those worried about when they'll get their SR3 key

Well we've done so for LOTR and Sonic :) We'll certainly be aiming to do the same for this too! /James
 
@Those asking about when keys are released - we aim to get keys sent out on the day of release :) While on our product pages it may state a UK/EU release date we do try to get keys out for the US if their release is earlier. We've managed to do this successfull for LOTR War in the North and Sonic Generations recently :) I don't see why we won't be able to for other releases. RE: Being sent out for a pre-load date, I'll have to check that.

Good news, everyone! In addition to having Saints Row 3 and LA Noire up, we've now got Space Marine available globally!

And the Red Tide price isn't a bug! It's to celebrate our launch in the Czech Republic! :D Feel free to welcome them either on the GMG facebook or twitter (Green Man Gaming CZ or @GMG_CZ if you want :p )

It's a good weekend :)

So, how the hell do the Referral system works?

Somebody has an account, sends a Referral to somebody else that DOESN'T have an accounts and both accounts get 2 dollars in-store, that's it?

Can I use it even if I already have an account, without creating another one?

The account holder who accepted the referral link needs to buy something for either one to receive their credits.

Unless they changed it recently, no, you can't accept referral links on an existing account.

you have to call your bank and tell them its you making the purchase, then they will set it so that doesn't happen anymore

Daaaaamn nice haul. So jealous right now, I'm going to have to get on that.

That SR3 price is too good to pass up, and I had $5 credit. <3 you GMG.

Agreed. It's especially enticing if you're an Australian Steam user where it's nearly three times the price on the Steam store.
 
So I've got $141 in credit and don't know what to do with them. Probably wait for a christmas sale and get sonic, saints row and space marine.

Get Batman AC
for me
 
they're giving away Men of War: Red Tide and i created an account, but when i received the e-mail telling me of my "purchase", there was no key (it has a "Activation keys:" section which is blank). is this a bug, or i don't get a key because the game is being given away? i wanted to activate it on steam

checking the keys section in my profile also shows no keys... fuuuuu.jpg.bmp.tiff.exe. well, i guess i'll install their client when they have a deal on a game i'm actually interested in. at least this gmg looks like it could be good, unlike origin.

It's not a steamworks game or at least on gmg it isn't. You need to download it via Capsule in order to play it.

Space Marine isn't on GMG. Believe me, I'd love to get it there and get a deal on it.

Some games are only available on co.uk, like BF3. Space Marine show up on both for me, but it redirects from com to .co.uk.

bleh. i should have waited on a sale before spending XD
 
What the hell is going on with the site. Tried preordering SR3, declines my CC. The same CC I've used for purchases 3 times on the site. Then I try paypal and it says it needs to be verified. *sigh*

Edit: I feel icky, just verified with Paypal, really stupid I had to do that for a purchase using the same CC I've used before on the site.

Edit2: Hrm release date showing the 18th instead of the 15th after purchase. That is just a mix up I hope for US purchases?

Edit3: So I called my bank today, ready to bitch them out about my card being declined. Come to find out, the issue was on GMG side of things, bank wasn't declining anything.
 
hum
Is it normal that I see Skyrim as availabe for pre-order?

Thanks.

P.S.
In the case that is true, is there a voucher code to get a discount on it?

P.P.S.
Being from Italy, I should choose the "(EU)" version right?
