It was a bonus if you pre-ordered on Origin. I have (non-steam) Alice:MR on Origin didn't get Mcgee's Alice in my install. This is why it was interesting when Tony mentioned a week or so back about that Alice pack.

Oh I'll walk right back through that open door .

Why didn't you buy it when it was ~$37 (we price matched that sale, and it was in January so you could have used a coupon to get it for $32).

Edit: How do I make the little clapping man?

Cheers,

because a glitch is the same as previous legit sales? You're not making any sense while he is. These prices are the same as before in some cases only we are using up a coupon to get it. Thats legit feedback.

I registered a non-Steam GamersGate key of Alice: Madness Returns on Origin a while ago, but it didn't download Alice 1, just Alice 2. It DID download all of the DLC dresses, which are included in all the versions of the game, just hidden (I think you can access them by changing a few lines in one of the config files).

For example, Amazon had Syndicate for $5 before, you think that they should sell it for $5 again and allow a coupon to work with it to make it free? Unless they are price matching steam why would they do that?

clapping guy is ":-applause:" without dash

Your right! I waited and missed the sale; although I didn't use the coupon as I thought that might be "coupon abuse"; price rolled over on Jan 1st.

Though, I'll probably grab MP3 when it comes back at the end of the sale.
Thanks Tony

Put "applause" between 2 ":" or just click on the gif smily

/agreed it is legit feedback, my feedback to the feedback is,

"Sorry the deal might not be for you this time because it is a repeat. Here are some examples of people in this very community that don't think it is a disappointing deal":

Word ALSO, in response to FC3, it'll be $39.99 pre-coupon on 1/22 only.

Originally Posted by Amazon DVG Deals As my previously reply pointed out, simply stating "These are bad deals" or "I am disappointed" invites response, usually not positive, from those who have specifically asked for a specific deal. If you want to provide feedback that is actionable like "I would have bought this at $XX.XX" for example: Edit: added this: "Syndicate was $4.00 from Gamefly in December. DA pack has been cheaper from Amazon in the past w/o coupon. EA sports pack has been 3.99 prior from Amazon as well w/o coupon. Alice was 4.99 from Steam, not the complete version though." awesome, I can use that. "These are bad deals"/"I am disappointed" only serves to invite argument and thread derailment.

Sorry, I wasn't trying to say these deals were bad, don't think I've ever said I was disappointed, when I said I wasn't interested in anything else. I just noticed that DS2 was on the list, along with the previous DS Franchise deal and your mention of possibly bringing it back when saying you wouldn't PM Steam's deal, thought I would express my appreciation if the deal were to come back and on the list. Hope it wasn't taken the wrong way, and keep doing what you're doing!

So what is the reward for the coupon? if you're going to use it as a incentive to buy other things why make the game cost the exact amount it did without the coupon?

sold!!!

I don't think it has anything to do with hoping it's free. I was hoping Syndicate would be around $2.50 after credit. It was $5 very recently on Amazon without any promo credit, which is why the deal isn't all that great for this promotion. I expect prices to be cheaper with promo credit, not the same price as it was a week or two ago when no credit promotions were running for it.

Not at all, I was using you as an example of the people who likely don't think the deals, one of which you specifically requested...suck.

See above.

yea...makes you think..
When I was buying games in Dec I kept thinking that each one gets me $5 off something else, but whats the point if the sale price of that item is +$5 than is previous lowest? hehe sure some have been good but I think I got a few too many of em that I wont use.

yea I know its a good deal since I bought it at that price the first time with THQ(?) coupon

Makes sense. Alice and Alice Complete were marketed differently and Complete was often not even available at certain times for purchase.

Is there any chance of Sleeping Dogs getting a good discount and being apart of the EC 2012 sale? I tried searching the thread but got a lot of results on people posting their "hauls" so sorry if this has been asked already.

Hitman was, so maybe. What price are you hoping for? From a US retailer I think Steam had it lowest at $16.99 if I'm not mistaken.

How do I check how many of the EC coupons I have?
