Ok that's good to hear then, thanks! I'm surprised this is still working, it's been up for a few hours so far. I can only imagine the chaos that will be unleashed in EA's offices once somebody discovers what's going on.

I can't wait to hear about that chaos. Somebody's going to get fired XD
They must already know what's going on since they have fixed so that you can't get 15+ games at the same time and locked to only being able to use it about 2 times (if you don't do all that other stuff to bypass it).
Did my first in Firefox. Trying the second in Origin client. No dice. Will try IE.

Looks like they fixed doing it over 2 times. New accounts it is!
Wait, how did you get it to work?
It only works on the american origin shop?
Australian here as well and I'm asked to type in my address and all for the bill

cant get the code to work, put it in, the page reloads but the prices are still the same whether I do it through the client or on the web store
Sims 3. And then, if you can, some of the Stuff packs.
You must have an account with "USA" as the country, and then you use this link to access the American store:
http://store.origin.com/?ipr=ty
Hmm that one is showing up as 29.99, did the price go up?

I'm scared now, just put one order through with a Californian address (I'm in Australia). I guess the only thing I have to lose is BF3, and I'm pretty well done with that so it won't be a hard hit, it's just that feeling of getting caught doing something you know(believe) is wrong.
Ahh, pretty sure mine won't go through since my account has Australia as my country of residence. Funny how the order still completes.

Yeah but we still have to deal with the billing address to get through the transaction
Ah thats what you did lol

welp, ended up with Shift 2, Hot Pursuit and Bulletstorm.
considering I can't even honestly pretend I care about the other options (that I don't already own), I think I can chill.
can't argue with free, though I don't expect to play any of these anytime soon if ever.

So is there still any way to do this and get more than one game?

Does this not work on BF3 Premium (just premium, not premium edition).
I put the code in, hit apply, it refreshes and the total price is still $49.99?

I'm getting really tempted to just put in a random address
Why can't everything just happen online

Only for $19.99 games and less.
Not really a complication, as it is the original term of the deal.

It looks like EA has been working to fix things. It's getting harder and harder to get multiple games.

I'm using a new email address for every game. With a password manager (I use Lastpass) it becomes very easy as you can save the "profile" (the information such as state, country, ZIP code, date of birth, name, password etc.) and then just change the email every time (which can then be repeated on a site to create an email address).
Face it Tiger..

How do you get Bulletstorm working?
I could've sworn I saw a version of Sims 3 at a regular price of $19.99, but looking through the storefront once again I guess not? Using the Slick Deals link in the op brings Sims 3 to $12, though. That's not bad. I think Sims 3 + Pets is $20. If you really want Sims 3, I'd go with that and then use the coupon on some Stuff Packs or the premium towns.
Sims 2 Double Deluxe is good, too. No reason to not get it if you want it - unless you want something else more.
Yes! Thanks.

It's $20 for the console versions, $30 for PC.

Criterion, you technical wizards. Hot Pursuit runs pretty well (by my admittedly low standards). I only drove around a bit in free roam and did one race, but it seemed good to me. It makes me even more hyped for Most Wanted.
Okay thanks. Guess I have to make a new account. Went ahead and downloaded Societies first because it's the most recent. lol

I got 12.
Yep. I downloaded Littlest Pet Shop, My Sims, and Spore for my wife and daughter, but when I tried to actually pay for a physical disc set it wouldn't go through. I always got a transaction complete message, but the transaction was not complete. Maybe I'll be charged for and get five copies of The Sim City Box or nothing at all. We'll see...

Ok I already own Crysis 1 and Warhead, Dead Space 1 and 2, Mass Effect 1 and 2, Mirrors Edge, Alice, and Shift 2. Can anybody recommend a good non-racing single player game? Not Medal of Honor. Played that at a friends house and it was Tier 1 Trash.
I got 5. Yesterday I got 2 to go through using chrome and client, today I got 3 to go through using chrome, client, and IE.
I don't even know why I'm doing this. I'm not gonna play any of these games...

:O is this still working
Today yeah, the average is probably much higher due to people realizing what was going on and immediately testing the limits yesterday (turns out there were no limits).
