That's a damn nice collection of games. Enjoy them, MX.

On a side note. I bought Deus Ex cdkey off ebay today for $21. Is it ok to share the link here ? saw people post cdkey sites earlier (thanks Clovingsteam, got Dead island of that site for $27)and this is the cheapest I have seen it yet.

Was it an auction or a Buy it Now?

Gonna get myself an Arkham City steam key from ebay. I assume the code is not region locked? The promotion is avaible in my country, but since I'll be buying from someone who got a Nvidia card in the US, it'll be an US code? Or I can just redeem the steam key from the US section of the Nvidia page and it'll work on my EU steam account?

Don't think I've heard anything about region locking with this game and I might be overthinking it, but still would love to hear a conformation if anyone knows before I buy.

I believe its region free. Salsa and I bought one from eBay and it was fine, although we're both from the U.S.

so i'm just wondering, is there any way that Steam or Origin can dick you for buying/activating a key bought off one of those key sites?

http://intkeys.com/

http://buygamecdkeys.com/specials.html


like say for example i bought Warhammer Space Marine off there/ activated on Steam (or an EA Origin game for that matter like Crysis 2) ...could they come along in a months time, etc, and say, 'hey wait now ...that key isn't North American, we'll have to unfortunately deactivate it'. ??

could they give you the dick in that way? any thoughts on that?

Ruined Red Orchestra 2 for me. A lot of gaffers, after viewing his clan's youtube video, voted him as a cheater for he/his-clan wallhacks/cheats in a lot of VAC titles.

Fuck 'em! :p

I almost forgot this ugly side of PC gaming. They really did a number on FFXI with their claim bots and speed hacks.

They could. Only widespread known one was MW2, where the games got deactivated.

I once bought Crysis off cdkeys direct (EADM) that got de-activated. When they changed to Origin it suddenly worked again :)

I've bought about 20-25 games off these kind of sites and besides Crysis I've never had an issue. Even registered 2 Russian keys on my Steam account.

When I was growing up my best friend was half Uruguayan. She and her sister are hardcore soccer players thanks to their father who is obsessed with the sport.

I'm surprised it isn't. I'm looking into it and it seems like South America doesn't want Uruguay. America is happy to take pariahs.

Honestly, I had never heard of Urugay until I met Salsa and I'm still not even sure if it's a real place or if he's just making it all up just to fuck with us.

Great patch.
As you can see, I never got around to playing it and don't care.

Someone reffered to Salsa as being from Mexico the other day. As he was reffered to as a girl in the quote I replied to.

Absolutely no offense meant, just continuing on with the ribbing of Salsa.
