I briefly entertained the notion of using my 2K coupon (the ones that we got towards the end of the year) on Mafia 1. If I had, would I have even gotten a key? If so, would I now be looking at the possibility of that key being revoked?

Yes you definitely would have gotten a key and no we're not revoking keys.

Cheers,

Thanks for the updates Tony!

Thanks for the reply. While I didn't actually buy, I'm sure this comes as welcome news to those who did.

Can you provide any insight as to why the game is unavailable for purchase?

Phew again

I actually am unsure. I can ask but I'm not sure I'll get anything I can share.

Cheers,

It won't work because the searchid won't be the same, it's randomly generated each time you search something.

This will work:

Talk about your all-time backfires.

Compatibility tips for for those who have Mafia (or the 3-CD edition)
http://pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Mafia:_...of_Lost_Heaven
The page doesn't mention however that controller support would be DirectInput (supported by the Logitech F310 or F710).

Thanks for the info, luckily I have the F710 controller

Good news on FC3! [STEAM Key and $30 for non-Deluxe after coupon]

Since you managed to get Steam keys to UPlay game, it would be great to try the same with Rayman Origins. It comes DRM free, but it's also published by Ubi. So far steamable copies are distributed only through Steam. Just giving the idea, because I'm still waiting for a decent deal on it. I would rather buy it from Amazon and pretty sure I'm not alone with this.

You definitely aren't

Yeah it would've been nice if Amazon had Steamkeys for Rayman Origins back during the Ubisoft credit promo.

Did they give you more info, was it a licensing issue? I am always bummed when a game gets pulled, especially considering that with digital copies there aren't the practical limitations of still manufacturing a game, keeping it on shelves, etc. I was really bummed recently when Steam pulled all of the 007 games that I was waiting for a sale on. They may not have been the best games but I still wanted to play them. I did pick up a physical copy of Blood Stone from amazon since it was pulled from Steam.

I know that for this game it was too late, but it isn't a bad idea to work with publishers to let you know if a game is going to get removed and then have some sort of clearance sale. Might as well push a lot of sales at the end rather than just silently removing it from the store.

I just heard Deadlight might be 3.74, I'd buy it for sure.

Rayman Origins is drm optional on Amazon and was during the sale for that matter. A few of us got it after one person got it and found nothing (I was the second person to get it and checked too). Steam version is drm free, doesn't even use steam. Amazon doesn't install tages by default. Pretty sure it's a glitch in the installer, but it's better this way. That's another you'll ruin what's there, unless Tony can officially make the swap.

Tony,

Any idea on the Max Payne 3 timing? It's been like 4 days since I bought something from amazon.
