How much did you pay for PvZ: GW? I wouldn't mind double dipping for the PC version if the price is right...

9.50 using VPN to get it from the mexican origin site.

 

[corrosivefrost]

OOOH PvZ GW actually got cheaper today + i figured out how to do the vpn thing, i was missing a step good thing it didn't work for me yesterday. maybe DA will get cheaper too, if so I'll pick them up as well.

Ubisoft shop still has my order of DA:I as "order pending" or something like that. I wish they'd either cancel it or fulfill it already.

Still too much. WAY too much.

damn that sucks, hopefully its fulfilled, would suck if all the waiting was for nothing.

oh you mad. its even cheaper on the US origin as well. Seems they're doing it the way steam does it with deeper discounts for different games every day since the sabtour went up in price, odd tho since it doesn't show up on the front page.

Got a gift copy of bit.trip runner when I bought the bit.trip pack. I though only Valve games gave gift copies. Nice surprise.

I don't think this has been posted, yet. Gamestop has Rising for $7.50. Steam key by all of the looks of it.

[Locust]

yeah, not a fan of the honor system :/

I have trustable people to buy from anyway, but when you decide you want more than a couple of games it takes ages to get the transaction sorted. Add to that them randomly blocking russians from buying (I dont mean the 10 checkout limit) and its just a total clusterfuck.

How is this persuasive? This is like negative ass.

 

[General_Frags]

Ordered Temple of Osiris + South Park from that Ubi sale. South Park had a Steam key in the email, Osiris is saying it will install over Uplay. May send out a key after launch? Dunno.

Do those keys from the US Ubi store work here in the UK on steam? Or are they locked to US.

it called persuasive for a reason

As the old saying goes:
wait for the dailies!

It will probably go down to 75% or 80% in a couple of days.

A couple days without the nagant mosin, pratchet, or "freedom spear" is not worth the savings.

hmmmm

 

[Kifimbo]

Yeah, it's just like pre-ordering from any site like GMG. You'll be able to get your Steam key once the game is released, possibly a few days beforehand.

This is 100% confirmed ? I'm about to pull the trigger.

Looks like Black Friday here. Anyone who keeps tracking the prices of any given product for a few months waiting for it is greeted with a nice surprise when the prices are then doubled and sold with 50% OFF. lol

This is 100% confirmed ? I'm about to pull the trigger.

According to the Official Eidos FAQs

Q: Does the game use SteamWorks?

A: Yes, Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris uses SteamWorks for achievements, Steam Cloud save games, multiplayer match making, as well as leaderboards.

Newegg has the Final Fantasy Power Pack for $35.97. It includes III, IV, VII, VIII, and XIII.

It appears they are all Steam keys.

 

[wilflare]

is there no sale thread?

 

[AHA-Lambda]

I'd bet on Dreamfall Chapters being a daily at some point as Dreamfall: TLJ is only 20% off right now making it £11 for a 8 year old game that was £3 on gog days ago =/

 

[Turfster]

is there no sale thread?

There is, on gaming side.
When I looked in, it was the endless parade of repetitions of the same stupid question over and over again.
Had to get out of there before I had an aneurysm.

i'm considering cs go, total biscuit says it's fun for people that don't like counter strike

wow

The earlier price was a permanently discounted Early Access price which was to be raised when the game enters "Late Access" a few months before the final 1.0 release. We've reached that point now but decided we can make the transition smoother for people by taking part in the sales event. This way you know the final launch price but can still get it with the old price for a while.

What an absolute crock. I'm so ticked I'm actually posting on a steam forum. Maybe I should go for a walk. But I feel duped! Bamboozled!

I just noticed someone posting in sales thread that you get Gray Matter steam key from groupees (shiny loot bundle 9), it is not the case actually, there is no Gray Matter steam key from groupees or shiny loot, or am I missing something?

Gotta love when devs make these kind of decisions with no prior announcement or anything. BSing at its finest.

 

[jshackles]

Someone said DayZ did same thing.

Yep, about 4 hours ago they set up a "Pricing roadmap" whereas today the price increased from $29.99 to $34.99 (and then the game was put on sale for $29.74).

Kinda shady that Early Access developers are taking advantage of people like this.

Along with the updates, you can expect a new price point for DayZ which will be 34.99 USD. This is part of a gradual price change as we progress with the development, and reach the goals that we set for the project. We would like to avoid a sudden increase in price once we hit the final release version. The current price of 23.99 EUR/29.99 USD will still be available during the Steam Fall sale. If you want to start surviving in DayZ, then now is the best time to get involved.

As well as the roadmap, we are thrilled to announce that the first half of 2016 will see our final release version and release from Steam Early Access, with our final price point of 39.99 EUR / 49.99 USD.
