Does this not work with Mass Effect 3?

Only working for a single item for me and ME3 won't discount.

Kingdoms of Amalur not working either.

How long it took till they added the game into your account?

i'm actually still waiting, that was my question
but i guess that's normal? not sure, i also got the "you will get notified of the result" message
it's been around an hour i think

well i do prefer owning my digital games on steam... but free? sure...
haha

I was able to use the code to get one game, but when tried using it on the second it said invalid code, so it seems it still works how it was originally intended too, you just can't abuse it.

Got an email for Mirrors Edge and Sims 2 woo. In the UK btw, no idea really how it worked. Kept getting transaction failed with VPN then somehow managed to 'buy' some games without a vpn. BC2 not here though. damn.

Mass Effect is downloading, that one worked right away for some reason. Mirror's Edge and Mass Effect 2 both gave the message about waiting for an email.
 
If it worked here in the UK i'd get simcity 4, only other game i have on origin is battlefield 3. Could someone maybe make me an origin account and get it for me? Not sure if that would work.

Thanks for the code, I used it to buy (get for free) the first Mass Effect which was the only ME game I didn't have on PC.

Worked only once though.

I saw this last night and was like "free games! Oh, I have to install origin, nevermind." Same thing happened when ubisoft was giving away games for $1 to get people using uplay.

I got my email for my 3rd order like 4 hours later.
I also had a dream that everyone on the earth died due to lack of oxygen and we couldn't play our free Origin games D:

Wait...you can play these?

Origin IS totally different from Steam.

It did something similar for Need for Speed for me once, showing it was $0.00. It has something to do with having the code applied to your account and then browsing the games.

Picked up Need for Speed Shift with no problems, using the code in the OP. Spent a fair bit of time trying to decide between that, Burnout Paradise and Hot Pursuit, but ultimately I was looking for something more sim-like than arcadey.

I guess it only works once now? Got Mirror's Edge for free. Thanks OP.

(luckily, Mirror's Edge is the only thing I wanted/didn't have)
