Is ACIII worth $7.50? I have an Amazon gift card and am contemplating it.

I liked it a lot. Though it has a lot of (not so great) filler that doesn't really add much. But the main game is pretty great! If you like Assassin's Creed and want more Assassin's Creed, you can't go wrong.

(Some will disagree.)

Bundle spares. I really need to delve deeper on my bundle accounts and check with keys are unused, it's really a mess sometimes to handle when you have ten sites and you have bought many bundles some of which share the same games.

Really hope Race The Sun and Contrast get sales before it's over too. Even though RTS is brand new, it still totally deserves the extra sales and attention.

I voted for Sacrifice before seeing that it was already discounted 75%. It's still a great game after all these years, though.


And what a merry thread this has become. So many generous GAFers!

What Valve needs to do is have the duplicate key error message have priority over "product already owned" as it'd remove the guesswork out of ascertaining whether or not a key has been used. There is a roundabout method available if you think you yourself may have used the key, though:

JaseC said:
Steam -> Change user -> Retrieve account info -> I don't know my account name -> I remember the product code I used

Unlike the product code activation form, however, this form doesn't validate the key (even typing in gibberish results in the "An e-mail has been sent ..." screen), so you'll need to check your inbox each and every time [you] input a code; if you don't get an e-mail, then it hasn't been activated.

Oh that 7,50 one is a steam key? Nice, I'll wait for Steam daily tho, I'm not comfortable with fake addresses on amazon (I'm in Europe), I did I twice and both times I was freaking out expecting the NSA to bust down my door :(

Quite a lot of us make online game code purchases off Amazon and we don't even live in the US. You're fine.

Yeah because the NSA would spend thousands of dollars to punish you for a $7.50 purchase.

I'm from Europe as well and I've made so many purchases on Amazon I've lost count, so you should be fine if you ever want to purchase from there again, nothing should really happen to you, but I can understand why you would not do it anymore.

Yeah, you can't do anything when you buy a suspicious number of gifts in short succession. I appreciate that it's for your protection, but it doesn't suck any less when you lock yourself out.

You submitted a ticket? Just wait it out, maybe half an hour or so? It's never lasted too long when I got locked out.
Click to expand...

Oh I was under the impression it'd be way longer than that. Looks like I'm not locked out any more....
...but now I'm scared to buy any more copies of Super Hexagon for my friends :(

You missed the 75% off deal on the Humble Store?

If it can happen on the Humble Store, it might happen on Steam as well. There's still more than a week of sales left.

How was it not obvious I was joking, I even used the NSA instead of just saying cops or something

Hey, Hey. Lets all just calm down and remember the holiday spirit!

Game actually comes via GAFFER gngf123; I'm just creating the giveaway. We're pretty sure the key is unused, but if not, apologies.

And then the LORD David Bowie saith to his Son, Jonny Depp: 'Go, and spread my image amongst the cosmos. For every living thing is in anguish and only the LIGHT shall give them reprieve.'
Question about DayZ...is it the kind of game that would be possible to map to xpadder for a 360 controller, or is the interface way too fiddly for that? I play MMOs with a 360 controller if that matters...

Nice, so far I've picked up Gemini Rue, System Shock 2, and Teleglitch.

I typically only buy games on sale I want, so it's been worthwhile :)

"As a first step in troubleshooting, please retry entering the product key, which you can find in Your Games & Software Library" My problem is that I was given one key instead of four Amazon, not that I can't figure out the complex process of redeeming it, fucking hell. Their support is truly awful.

Sounds like an inept person reading off a support script. Its like when you call your internet provider and they make you reset your modem. Now wait three seconds and plug it back in, etc. etc.
