You can get a lot of good games for FREE by using Prime trial on Amazon. OF COURSE you need to be a US citizen.

That's really not at all what "free" means. That $10 for trying audible has existed for a while now, and yes, it's a good deal, but it's a $10 credit, that can be used for anything, any time (not to mention you won't get the credit today, it takes a couple days). A list of games under $10 today (while useful on it's own) has nothing to do with that deal. And if you've done that deal already, you can't get any of them free in any other way.

Oh it's ten bucks credit. That's not really a loophole guys, it's their promotion. They know you can get it and cancel.

Not sure if I should get Prototype 2 or use it on something practical.

In a way you are right because there will be people who will forget to cancel Prime or Audible so Amazon will get some money from them. Also some of them will stay members.

I got my credit immediately too. Placed an order and then cancelled the subscription right after.

Exactly. It's like saying the free month on Netflix is a loophole. They're counting on more people not canceling than doing it. Though I did get my credit in a minute.

Oh, and don't forget to use the free credit from the audible signup. That lasts even if you cancel your subscription, but it'll go away if you cancel and don't use it.

I get on no good deals ever, sigh

Incomplete for now.
Mediocre translation quality.
No voice patch.
Two versions of character sprites, both crappy, no option for superior PS3 artwork.
Was available for 'free' for the last few years.

I'm not sure what exactly you were expecting. 100k sales?

so you are saying.I shouldn't have bought it and it's not one of the best VNs ever, right?

jeez not you too! I'm really sick of this attitude around these parts

Yeah, she's lovely, and it's not a "mai waifu xd" thing, she's just a really well done character, alongside Phi and Tenmyouji. Her ending was what stroke me the most in the entire series, it really fleshes out her character and it's one of the most impacting scenes in video games.

I've somehow avoided owning Spelunky over the years. Guess I'll change that. Seems like a pretty neat and varied bundle.

Spelunky is a stroke of genius the way it is designed. I'm really not a 2D connoisseur but Spelunky managed to grab me very good and became my 4th most-played game. It's that good.

I still think it's one of the very few almost perfectly designed games and one of the best games ever period... everybody should give it a try who hasn't
