Yeah, my activation of Bulletstorm PC gave me the Limited Edition.

I just bought Bulletstorm last night from Amazon. Entered the key (XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX) I received into Origin via 'Redeem Product Code' and it registered the game almost instantly.

Origin did ask me to pick which version to register between various language options:

1 - Japanese, English
2 - English, French, Italian, German, Spanish, Polish, Russian
3 - German, English

I ended up choosing #2 and everything works fine. The only annoying thing was having to restart the game several times so Windows Live could register and update.

Ok need advice.

I have enough points on Xbox (xbox game sale this week) to buy 1 game.

Should I buy Bioshock on 360 or purchase the Bioshock/Bioshock2/Spec Ops Bundle from Amazon for 16$ after the coupon and use the 1 free game for something liek Dirt 2 or Grid

(Can Bioshock be played with an xbox controller on PC? AND can you change resolution of SPec Ops on PC because the demo didnt have 1920x1080)

Bought Bulletstorm. Origin activation was easy and painless as all said. Thanks!!

BTW, thanks tony! My wallet hates you!

I'd be more enticed if I didn't get MW2 for $5 last year.

Anyone reccomend this http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...ew_asin_detail I already have the Just Cause games so any insight on the other games would be appreciated.

Thanks for the replies. I'll probably buy the standard game and pass on the digital upgrade for now.

I got MW2 (PC download) for $5 last year from Amazon DVG;
and MW3 (Retail) from TRU during the PC games blowout for $10.

Well, hell...had a goofball moment, activated wrong version (version #1).
Contacted EA support; they removed my key tied to Origin; gave me new key; activated me all up w/ right version.

Good show, EA!

Even with the 25% off it's not even close to be a good deal. Especially if you have the Just Cause games (and if you didn't JC2 is basically $2-3ish as it's been in so many commercial bundles).

Where'd you get MW2 for 5?

Amazon DVG had Modern Warfare 2 for $5 on Valentine's Day 2012.

I wasn't able to use the cagrocks code because there wasn't a single game that I wanted.

Lost Planet 2 from Capcom
Make it happen.

Dead Space 1 & 2 from Amazon do not require Origin.

a couple of multiplayer character and weapon skins

This might be a dumb question, but if I were to buy the Mechromancer for BL2 would the Mac version also work on the PC version? Reason I am asking is because the Mac version is less than 5 bucks while the PC version is 7.49

Why doesn't CAGROCKS work on Bioshock Infinite season pass now?

So just to confirm, the Dead Space Bundle does NOT activate on STEAM?

http://www.amazon.com/Electronic-Art...d+space+bundle

I see the DRM is listed as "mixed." So that means it's Origin only, right?

From the OP

Originally Posted by Amazon DVG Deals Hi CAGs, FYI. EA Games sold by Amazon will not activate on Steam.

In general newer EA games from the last few years will activate to Origin. For older ones EA has a list of which ones will activate to Origin here: (Note: Dead Space and Dead Space 2 are listed)

https://help.ea.com/article/origin-code-redemption-faq

If you have a game not on the list and you try activating it and doesn't work you can try this link:

https://activate.ea.com/gameactivation.do

If that still doesn't work you can contact EA support and request that they manually add it to your Origin account if you provide proof of purchase but that's very YMMV and you may need to talk to several reps before you find one willing to do it.

I was told because release was post when the coupon expires, though not sure if that is really the reason.
