Hmm, Two Worlds II is $5 ($4 after 20%). Caution: iirc, three activations, period, non-revocable. But for $4.... I don't think this is a glitch, GMG had TWII for $8 before, Steam had it for $7.50.

But it's not all velvety and cheap like the one that as on sale a couple months back. Plus, it smells bad.

What exactly is the DRM?

What kind of DRM does it have exactly now?

Two Worlds 2 has its very own homebrew-made DRM.

Basically, you have to activate it once per PC.
Change major PC parts - prepare for another activation to be used.

If you run out of activations, contact support...and just roll the dice.

Well that sucks. I've been pretty interested in this game for a while.

If you're Anti-DRM, avoid the game. To give it context, the game asks for your phone and address.

Just wait for Amazon to put it on sale. They've already done so for the first game.

Good point. I believe I'd seen GG slightly articulate their "unlimited activations" policy as: we'll help you reset activations. That said, I've never seen reports of anyone (try to) use those policies for GG or Amazon. The way GG gave prior purchasers of Sacred 2 Gold the DRM-FREE version does give me hope. However, more saliently, would you rather deal with customer service at GG or Amazon?

Seeing as I am dealing with GG support right now, which consists of throwing tickets into a pit and waiting weeks upon weeks for the slightest reply, I'd probably say Amazon.

=p That was supposed to be a rhetorical question. While Amazon support isn't always smooth at least they operate at normal speed. And we got Big Tony to set them straight.

Do you ever check on the Daily Deal update just to say to yourself, "I alt-tabbed for this?!?"

i'm actually excited to see codemasters added. GG seems to have more aggressive sales than Steam so I'm hoping for a 75% off Jericho.

You are all fully expected to buy Hospital Tycoon for $3.34 (if you don't already own it).

8-bit graphics or GTFO ^_~

Nod! I was noticing Dirt 2 was on sale for $10 (it evaded the steam autumn/winter sales). Dirt 2 and GRID are still the best two racers of recent years (though TDU2 is a strong runner-up).

Hmm, Dirt 2 just dropped, 55% off atm, $6.71 (It hit $5 on the steam summer sale)

I am curious if the F1 games are good Sim racers. The MSRPs are lower on GG so even with only a 33% discount (and 20% Xmas discount), they are lower than the best sales on Steam as far as I can remember. I saw F1 2012 will no longer have any patches so that is a definite con. These games are still so pricey though considering their age.

I haven't played F1 2012/11/12. They really haven't gotten the sort of sales that Codemasters' racers used to get, haven't dropped under $25 that I can recall. IIRC, reviewers liked 2010, thought 2011 was a refinement, and 2012 was clearly the annual update in a sports game franchise. They change a little match the rules of the respective F1 season. Oh good, F1 2012 has a demo on Steam, finally.

I really hope to see a great sale on F1 2012. I enjoyed 2011 when I played it for a while but recently I've been feeling like playing some racing games.

If anyone has Dishonored from the Bethesda pack, I would greatly appreciate a PM.
