Bah, it seems that Supreme Commander deal is not available to Europeans :/

Motoki,

It really isn't such a big deal. I was starting to poke around for it anyways. With Dawnguard, I launched a new character.. thus NO guards speak of it until you're level 10. I was 9 :-) No biggie though, it's just one of those things. But yes, it becomes absurd the amount of times they repeat it if you DON'T just go.

It's like sheesh.

I can't say for sure, but I don't think the actual codes themselves are region locked. I don't see any info indicating the game is region locked.

Since everyone who gets in on this deal gets two keys, you might be able to buy or trade one off of someone.

The codes are region free i believe. And yes, good idea, i will try to trade with someone here. Thanks

I would be if I already didn't own the PS3 Collector's Edition. I'll probably just buy the DLC on PSN. I wouldn't mind buying it again on PC, but I heard it's a bad port. Plus it really annoys me (as a hardcore fan of the series), that they released a patch that not only nerfed a lot of things, but made the game a whole lot easier.

Ninja Blade was 75% off the whole duration of the summer sale. I was going to buy it, but I already went way over my spending limit

Don't forget to mention that Dark Souls is using that awesome GFWL service.

I might double dip on it and grab it for the pc, if the port is decent. I don't like GFWL mind you but I've never had any trouble with it so I could put up with it. As long as the port was decent and ran as good as the console version. I would probably be a buyer at around $20.

I've heard so many great things about Dark Souls, but have seen limited game play. I was pretty excited when they said they were going to release it for the PC, but was a bit skeptical on the GFWL. I would bite on a cheap price, but I think I'd go expensive it didn't include that feature (and obviously if it was better ported).

And I gave up on the 360 when my first one died. :/
It lasted a pretty good ~5 years though.
And my brother ended up fixing it, but the colors are all ed up.

I agree. Two nice-looking adventure games coming out in such short order is just a dick move.

I agree. I was really excited for it but then GFWL + Japanese man from From saying 'ohai port sucks*' = HOPES DELETED = way less I am willing to pay.

It went from a must buy day 1 to a wait and see. Unless the general consensus is that it's really amazing, I probably won't buy right away. If the opinions are mixed I'll wait for a decent sale and if the (non-rabid fanboi/girl) opinions are mostly bad I will just pass.

I've seen too many FAIL launches lately to go in blind like the Battle vs Chess or the Final Fantasy VII one.

I smell & sense A LOT of sarcasm there...

10 years ago I would have been all over this. Now, I just have no motivation to get wrecked all day by people with far more spare time than me.

The art looks nice, reminds me of when limbo meets braid.

Well I won Draekon's Dark Souls giveaway so I will let you know how it is.

Not sure about pages. But, post wise it starts freaking out around 13,000 or so.

Damn ninjd!

But yeah, too many games, not enough spreadsheets (NEVER!) I know.

Ah yes, I can hardly wait.

Today's deal:

Fallout Collection is tempting but still waiting for 75% off. It has to happen eventually....

What if Steam does a 75% off or better sale, sometime way down the line...?

Unless I can get an incredible deal on a game upon release (think 50% or better) and the game likely will stuff lots of content upon release, I usually wait to buy the game LATER.

If there lots of DLC planned or game is from a company known to release LOTS of DLC, it's another sign that I should wait for major price-drops on base game or wait for some sort of Complete Pack.

I'd be on the hit web-show "Game Hoarder" - since I have a lot I haven't touched from both Retail and ESPECIALLY Digital...

Thankfully, I don't have nearly as many retail ones as I do digital.

I got crazy amounts of games, from both.
I tried getting a list going long ago, but I gave up.
I buy too much too often, to even keep up w/ it all...

I'm hyped, regardless of port quality or gfwl downsides. I've yet to play the game at all, putting it off for the hopes of a pc release. Have it pre-ordered at GMG for $32. I plan on using a 360 controller most likely, so as long as I can force AA and it doesn't crash, I'll be fine.
