Has anyone made a list of the games that will be free/super cheap due to this deal? I'm guessing Amazon PM against Steam will make these coupons pretty good (assuming Steam puts some of this stuff on sale on the 25th)

Side note: Amazon is kicking ass, I bought a .99 SR3 DLC and got a $5 coupon to use in January and $5 off THQ product. That's pretty damn amazing. And actually when I saw how many promo codes popped up in my inbox I realized DAMN I bought a lot of games on Amazon this year.

Well, that sucks, I just bought the DSII pack, and would have used the credit on it had I known this was happening. I own damn near everything else that publisher credit can be applied to. Wasn't there talk about people getting pissed off when something was discounted even cheaper right after it went on sale? And, Tony said he was looking into maybe crediting people in a certain window (I remember he said he thought a month was fair) Well, what about when it happens in the same week?!? I mean seriously. I've learned to wait until the last day to buy something at Amazon, but to throw it back up on sale after the deal expired, inside of the same week it was on sale, and give a credit to be used against it also, combined with absolutely no warning or hint that this might happen. Tony.......you can do better. One of the reasons I own so many games and don't have much the credit can be applied to is because I've been a regular customer, and rabid follower of yours and this thread. I'm not alone as someone else already mentioned that they owned all the publishers catalog as well. This doesn't much feel like being rewarded for continued business. More like being trolled. Sorry, usually a fan, but this comes across as a dick move Tony.

If only the KoA bundle was still on sale tomorrow! Aside from that, I'm not aware of any EA games/bundles that I'm interested in.

I bought DNF and Bulletstorm in January, and haven't yet received coupons for either... but we're only a few hours in to the day, and Tony said he thinks it'll take most of the days to get all the coupons out.

Not a single coupon, yet, does this work retroactively or just for people purchasing after it was announced???

Originally Posted by baconcow Did anyone receive their 2K coupons, yet? I only received my THQ coupon for buying Metro 2033. I bought these games, just wondering if anyone received coupons for any of them: Bioshock & Bioshock 2 [2K] Borderlands 2 Season Pass [2K] Sid Meier's Civilization V: Gods and Kings [2K] Spec Ops: The Line [2K]

Originally Posted by yangwenli I got a few of those and haven't gotten any 2K coupons.

Tony mentioned we won't get any e-mails about 2K coupons until 12/25.
I'm also waiting for my 2K $5 credit/coupon and put to good use next 26th

I bought Metro 2033 a long time ago, so it seems that if you purchased it in 2012, you're okay.

But it was listed in the second post of this thread!

retroactively and after it was announced, until tonight at 23.59

Well, whaddya know? I did buy THQ games: SR3 in July, Space Marine in April, RF:A in April.

EA games: Crysis 2 in January, Shift 2 in April, Syndicate in July, KoA in August, ME3 in August, Dead Space 1&2 in October, NFS: The Run in October, EA Niche gamer bundle in December

2K games: Darkness 2 in October, XCOM:EU in November

So, still missing a few emails.

Side note: good lord. I bought way more that i thought in 2012. And that doesn't include Paradox, Sega, Activision, etc...

I vote we start a charity for the hurt, angry children that don't know how to keep their mouths shut about good deals. Maybe that will shut them up and not hold back additional discounts for others...

Scribblenauts is finally at a price where I want to buy it, and I can't because I live in Canada.

;_;

Didnt received the 2k credits either.

Nothing about these credits is listed in the 2nd post as of right now (or the first). If you are referring to the DSII deal, yes that was listed, which is why I bought it. You didn't actually read the post.

I'm not going to say your complaint isn't valid; I'm having the same problem and it's definitely worth addressing. I just hate it when people bring up how much they buy from amazon or follow Tony's thread when complaining.

You do that because Tony's doing an awesome job here, which makes you spending time in this thread worth it. Considering how easy it is to be a repeat customer, buying a lot of really great deals doesn't make your complaints any more important than anyone else's.

I didn't bring it up to infer my complaint was more important. I brought it up to counter some smart ass saying "Well, just buy something else from that publisher".

Is there any way to check what vouchers I have if I deleted the emails ?

It seems a public forum is not the best place to make your petition. Did you consider a PM to Tony prior to complaining here or even a call to Amazons customer service? This thread is about announcing upcoming deals and providing feedback for future deals. Do we really need to state that a game should not go on sale cheaper for an arbitrary amount of time after a sale to make sure we don't hurt peoples feelings?

Eh, people have mentioned that before in the thread and Tony has addressed it. Don't see why it's a problem. The Hitman sale being a recent example.

Hmmm ffxi 4.99 I'm feeling a bit nostalgic. I haven't played it in 4 years, but iv been getting an itch to start again. Anyone know if its worth it or should I let this sleeping dog lie?

Just use US address. And buy it.

That seems rather sketchy to me, won't my shit just get revoked since it doesn't match my CC adress?
