Not afaik. Some of us are waiting here for some UK help with doing that.
Is that really a deal breaker? I would rather take 4 games for $2 more, and not have them on steam, then have one game only because its on Steam.

Rearmed has been as cheap as 2.69 during last year's Winter sale.

I don't think so. Not without a UK VPN at least. Not sure if they accept american CCs either.
Oh man. How did I miss that.
I guess I'll wait then.I'm only casually interested in Crysis 2, so I wouldn't go out of my way to buy it if I can't have it on Steam.

listen to the mad man
Mark of the Ninja is supposedly a much, much better game with great feel and stealth. Personally I haven't played it, but I've seen lots of people who weren't fans of Shank and love MotN
According to Amazon users it's only Crysis 2 Origin redeemable, everything else has to be downloaded from Amazon...

I would say the same thing. I was just letting people know though.
Yup. Shank stank. Mark of the Ninja is phenomenal.

If you use code "Download" or "NOV20OFF" you can buy it for $5.99
So much talk of Hotline Miami. Game was a price mistake at 75 percent at the beginning.
Which is why you always buy non-dailies if they're 75 (or higher) and you want them.
Not saying everyone saw it. But that's the power of the wishlist. To spot any potential price mistakes you want to pounce on.

If I'm not mistaken, Amazon also provides keys for the other Crysis games, but they need to be added to your account manually by an EA CSR.
You think Steam'll have it below that?

Best stealth game out. Nothing like Shank at all.
I bought Crysis 2 on an Amazon sale last year and downloaded it from there without ever needing to mess with Origin. I think the DRM in that case is basically the same as if you bought it on a disc (this game came out before EA started requiring Origin for their games). That said, you also have the choice of redeeming literally any EA CD key from the last few years on Origin.

I didn't mean to imply that direct downloads aren't available, but rather just that key redemption is also an option.
Edit: I see, I forgot the "also".

Little chances to see it below its actual price, but I can be wrong!

Does the game play well with Keyboard if that's my prefered method of play?
They were done by another company.

I think that's naive wishful thinking on your part. The exact reason that Valve allows Steamworks titles sold through other channels, that they see 0% of the sale , is exactly why other companies would see it in their best interest not to carry Steamworks titles. Valve only does it because it helps them grow their customer base. Every game sold on STeam is a potential sale for Amazon. That's just business. You really think that AmazonTony is working together with publishers just to help you and Valve? Come on man. At this point they are at the stage where they are trying to grow their customer base of PC DD to Steam levels. When they feel they've done that enough they will make their move.

Nothing for me today then.

What time is it?
Giantbomb's QuickLook sold me but I'm still going to wait for a better sale. I'll probably bite once it hits 50% off.
Is there a sale on these I'm not aware of?

So any thoughts on Dawnguard for $10 or Hearthfire for $2.50?
When I bought it last year it didn't. Don't know about Maximum Edition.

No.
EA games sold on Steam work on Steam. EA games sold outside of Steam (NFS, KoA, Crysis, Dragon Age, Mass Effect) are Origin-only.

yup
Thank you for the info. 10 for the Skyrim is very nice deal.
Both could be cheaper closer to Christmas, but if you plan on playing them now it's a pretty good deal. Dawnguard is a pretty decent length and Hearthfire is like $5 not on sale so if it gets cheaper it will only be by $.75 or so.
$22.50 from GMG with the -25% code or, if a UK GAFer can assist, ~$18.
Edit: Said code is GMG25-G4VDR-0ZL4Q.
I know that's the case for Battlefield 3 and Mass Effect 3 - EA games that came out within the last couple years, but did they retroactively require Origin for previous games too? Pretty sure I own a non-Steam copy of Dragon Age II that I don't have to boot through Origin.

Do you have to use a fake UK billing address for orders outside of the UK on Gamefly?
Awesome, thanks!
No. Origin was built upon the rather primitive EADM, so the only games that actually require the client are those released after Origin launched (Edit: Excluding select EA Partners titles, of course). Older games (~pre-2009) don't automatically activate on Origin for this very reason.
