IAMANELDERGEEK for 5% off.

Thank you!

 

[C-Drive]

Anybody need a copy of the original Darksiders? GONE!

 

[didamangi]

What are today's Gamersgate's mistakes?

None. They seem to have fixed the pricing bug error that mostly occurs during daily deal rotation.

Borderlands 2 giveaway finished, I PMed the winner

 

[Liferebooted]

Amazon jacked up the prices as soon as the EA and THQ coupons started.

 

[matmanx1]

Dark Souls is $14.99 on Amazon.

Was waiting on a Daily Deal from Steam for this game but Amazon wins instead. Still got $20 sitting in my Steam wallet though. I wonder what I'm going to use it on now?

 

[drizzle]

I bought two packs of 1000 blue coins on Gamersgate to get Saint's Row 2. Obivoulsy I used the IAMANELDERGEEK and bought 2000 blue coins for $1.90.

What I forgot is that IAMANELDERGEEK also discounts BlueCoins, so it brought Saints Row 2 to a price where I only needed to buy one pack of 1000 Blue Coins.

Surplus of blue coins for me, I guess.

 

[PandaPandaPanda]

Amazon jacked up the prices as soon as the EA and THQ coupons started.

Many promotions are only for certain days so I wouldn't say they jacked them up, the promotions just ended. They had no obligation to give the publisher specific coupons (as it wasn't advertised at the beginning of the sale) and I thought it was a nice thing to have. Wish it was more broad(as there was some Warner Brother's stuff that I wanted) but oh well.

Is it worth it get Mass Effect 2 Digital for the digital artbook?

 

[Cynar]

Do you have a credit card? Add a US billing address to your account (Valve, Google or whatever) and use that for your order.

Thanks! That worked for me in Canada for scribblenauts.

 

[Omega]

Is it worth it get Mass Effect 2 Digital for the digital artbook?

probably not. the physical artbook isn't even worth owning.

 

[Yasir]

how is Max Payne 3 on PC?

i loved this game on PS3 but since it's not CoD the community was dead after a month.

Just bought it on steam. So not yet downloaded and tried. But, I can say only one thing ... 30GB O.O

 

[ksdixon]

really hoping for hitman absolution to go cheaper, anyone with me?

 

[PandaPandaPanda]

really hoping for hitman absolution to go cheaper, anyone with me?

Amazon is going to have it on December 30th for $20. Redeems on steam as well. I wouldn't expect anything cheaper than that since this game came out very recently

 

[O.DOGG]

It's perfect. Well optimized, and sooo beautiful. I won't mention the gameplay, you already know about that.

 

[Mr. Luchador]

Kinda want Max Payne 3+DLC, but I'm unsure. First real price I've thought 'that looks like a bargain'.

 

[zerokoolpsx]

Anyone know what this Stalker Ownership Check is?

 

[baconcow]

Anyone know what this Stalker Ownership Check is?

Something to do with a loyalty rebate for the other Call of Pypriat, I believe.

 

[Mr. Luchador]

Anyone know what this Stalker Ownership Check is?

'Loyalty' discount on other STALKER games (I think).

 

[Tizoc]

probably not. the physical artbook isn't even worth owning.

lol, alright then will get the normal ver. then look up the DLC~

 

[teruterubozu]

Any juicy deal on Civ5: Gods and Kings in sight?

Also asking again any impression on Spirits?

Try to hang in there. I got God & Kings for 75% off on the final days of the last sale. Don't fall for the 50% off.

It's my biggest peeve with Steam Sales - don't fool us with early "fake" discounts then drop the price even lower a few days later. It's total bullshit.

 

[baconcow]

Keep you eyes open for the Mac version of Gods & Kings at Amazon as it received a discount before when the Windows one didn't. Mac version is also Windows as the game features SteamPlay.

 

[SamVimes]

Can anyone gift me Dark Souls from Amazon.com? I can't do the change the billing address thing on my debit card and i would obviously pay you back.
If anyone is interested send me a pm.

Has Spec Ops: The Line or Binary Domain been on daily sale yet? Those are really the only 2 games I'm looking to get (and maybe Arkham City).

 

[Addnan]

Has Spec Ops: The Line or Binary Domain been on daily sale yet? Those are really the only 2 games I'm looking to get (and maybe Arkham City).

They have been flash sales

 

[vitaminwateryum]

Spec-Ops was on the last set of flash sales, but you can still get it, Bioshock, and Bioshock 2 on Amazon for $10 as a bundle. I don't think BD has been on sale yet.

Finally picked up all that DLC with Saints Row III for $2.50 with that Amazon coupon. It's a shame they never had a package just for it!

I'm ready for new Flash/Daily deals! I want some crazy Sam & Max deduction! Or some Dead Space ish!

Merry X-mas GAF, I heart you very much~!

Is Jet Set Radio the hd version ot just the dreamcast version emulated?

 

[zam]

Binary Domain was on sale for $7 and Spec ops was yesterday for $10

Dammit

Spec-Ops was on the last set of flash sales, but you can still get it, Bioshock, and Bioshock 2 on Amazon for $10 as a bundle. I don't think BD has been on sale yet.

Balls, only available in the US

 

[ZiZ]

I accidentally registered Dark Souls to the wrong GFWL account. is there any way to transfer it to my other account?

 

[drizzle]

Deppends on your definition of emulated.

However, you should buy the Sega ARcade PAck from Amazon instead. It comes with a steam redeemable code of it plus a couple of dreamcast games.

 

[DunderHassan]

Fear not, you can get a better deal for Spec Ops from amazon.com:

http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0091T6FQO/?tag=neogaf0e-20

Basically you'll get Bioshock 1 + 2 for free and a $5 promo credit to use in Janyary (Editor's Choice games).
Binary Domain surely will get on a daily soon enough too.

 

[bengraven]

So I got SR3 last week during the THQ sale, but...

I want to buy "the full package" on Steam to get all the DLC since it's cheaper, but it COMES with SR3.

Will I be able to gift Saint's Row 3?

 

[vitaminwateryum]

Dammit


Balls, only available in the US

I'm sure someone in the thread would be willing to buy it if you paypal them cash. Also, Spec-Ops is still available on Steam for $15.00, at 50% off.

i think the sr3 key is seperate from the other games in the thq bundle, so you should be able to gift it if you look at your humble bundle page.

 

[bengraven]

That's the problem, though: I already used my Humble key.

Now I'm trying to buy the full pack and it's telling me it's not sure if I will be able to gift it.

 

[AlexBasch]

Whilst my stuff gets downloaded, I started to clear stuff (even from the last Summer sale, holy shit) and it was the turn of Space Marine.

Fun stuff, though the sound stuttering is really annoying. Wanted to get a 100% on the Achievements but it requires multiplayer, egh.

Also, any effective guide to configure Binary Domain with a 360 controller? Default controls don't make any sense and most of them are unbinded, what the hell.

 

[bigace33]

Just used my 2K $5promotional credit to get NBA 2k13 for $9.99.

 

[Kud Dukan]

I'm tempted to get that Tomb Raider collection, since I've never seriously played any of them. How do the older ones hold up?

 

[baconcow]

[NeoMATH][Notice to All Non-USA GAF's Regarding Amazon Purchases]


Credit Card (yours) + USA Address (not yours, but real) + Non-USA GAF (this would be you) = Can Buy Digital Downloads

 

[Torraz]

By the way, why does Dawn of war 2 force the installation of Chaos Rising, but not Retribution?

 

[drizzle]

That's the problem, though: I already used my Humble key.

Now I'm trying to buy the full pack and it's telling me it's not sure if I will be able to gift it.

There's no need for doubts: You won't be able to gift it.

 

[Rainy Dog]

Origin is just a rebranded EA Download Manager, but EA didn't begin to push it as a DD platform until mid-2011... which has had obvious Steam-related consequences vis-a-vis EA games that weren't published via EA Partners.

Thanks, but the reason I asked was more to do with that I prefer to buy games that only require one platform/launcher to run. I'm not opposed to using Origin or Uplay at all, but I'm not especially keen when a Steam game needs both Steam and Origin/Uplay to run.

Which leads me to ask actually... Can SSIV:AE be played in single player/local multi without having to use GFWL?

GFWL will be running no matter what. You can play without logging in, however, some characters will be disabled. You need to login to make them all available. Yes, even for offline play.

Yes, your crazy pipedream of not running multiple clients is not possible. Doesn't really matter.
