This thread will attempt to provide a place to discuss past/present/future PC gaming deals. While mainly focusing on Steam games, any standout sales may also be presented. I will not be updating every Daily/Weekly/etc. sale. The tools to help individuals become a smarter shopper will be provided below.

I think it was back in Jan.? Talked to spoder about it cause he needed a new keyboard. Don't know if he return his because he didn't seem to like the feedback it gives off from the space bar.

 
Man, I'd love to get a new keyboard but I have no idea which mechanical keyboard to get. There's way too many brands and types out there. I'd probably prefer one with a wrist rest and one that's backlit (solid color).

the Corsair K70 and Strafe are great deals on refurb.

Go with Cooler Master or Corsair for a great keyboard (or duckyshine but they are overpriced as balls)

Titanfall 2 will host a free trial of the game's full multiplayer offering. The trial* will begin for EA Access and Origin Access members on November 30th, and become available for all players starting December 2nd on Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and Origin for PC. This will feature a full offering including all maps, modes, weapons and more including brand new content from Angel City’s Most Wanted DLC on December 3rd.

I have the full game so feel free to add me (same as CAG name) on Origin if you are playing this weekend.

 
DIngus Mcfakey? you wont make it through Jan.
That's not supportive.

But the upside is that with me not fakeying everything the second it hits $40 you cheapies might actually start seeing good deals again. You can take those extra savings and spend them on your favorite mom. Just remember to tell them DB sent you.

Amazon has a lot of high quality but cheap Chinese techs depending on how cheap you want to go.

Great game! One of the best FPS I've played in years, in terms of both SP and MP. Definitely a strong GOTY contender. Hopefully, between the trial and Respawn's no season pass/free DLC policy, it can get the support it deserves.

I thought you were playing consoles now? Shouldn't you be buying ten games to flip on craigslist so you get your copy for free? (Seriously, I'm amazed at the time and some of the people in the console threads toss at trying to save a tiny amount.)

I did just pre-order a ton of console games with that BB Visa Checkout deal, the shame of which is just starting to sink in and rattle me to my core. But yeah, despite the fact I will probably spend very little time actually playing them I can't fathom running around trying to flip them. I don't know where those peasants find the time and energy considering they ought to be plowing the corn grass from dawn till dusk.

Yeah console people haven't quite grown up and graduated into the mass farming and selling of virtual trading cards for pennies yet.

True. They're like simple peasants slaving in the fields for radishes whereas the PC people press a button and watch the factory farming do it all from the comfort of their couch.

Corsair K70.
Thanks for the suggestion.

I almost pulled the trigger on one of those. The MechanicalEagle Z-77 (Blue switches) which had a promotional code that lowered the price from $39.99 to $8-9 or something like that. Unfortunately they sold out before I could check out. It looked terrible with the rainbow backlit keys, but I was willing to pay that much to play around with it. The reviews were actually fairly decent too, go figure.

I am... :wall:

I think a lot of people are actually. The sales page eventually changed over to 'Sold Out' so I'm guessing they ran out of keys to distribute.
well, this is the last time Ubisuck offers a sale :whistle2: They need to make up for all the losses

Reminder:  Today is the last day for that claim for the Nvidia Lawsuit for the 970x...   Hopefully, if you register for it it goes better than it is for me.  I'm having no luck trying to figure out what I need to give the website and the post someone made about it last week doesn't show up in CAG's pointless and worthless search function.

Edit: Figured it out.  I think most people are going to want to chose "I DO NOT have a claim number but want to file online" as the email we got from newegg back in august has no claim number on it.

Edit 2: This could be helpful also.

I did.

You just need your invoice. I got mine from Newegg. And your Device ID which is available in Nvidia Control Panel.

I did mine without the invoice... My edits show the wrong path i went down. (I thought i had a claim number from newegg. Interesting how they never contracted me again after the first notice saying a settlement happened.)

 
Last night we tried to play Lifeless.  It was broken and you can't connect to any servers.  One would think that GMG might want to publish and distribute a game that works but, hey, what do I know?

Then we tried Savage Lands which I remembered as being decent enough.  It was buggy where most of us couldn't see things attacking us and was surprisingly tedious to gather rocks, flint, etc.  We wandered around for a while, I got mauled by a skeleton and respawned miles away and then, mercifully, my wife came home and needed to talk about some stuff so I bailed.

Thanks, forgot about this and just submitted it. It was also giving me issues in Chrome with the invoice upload (the site blocks it from being in a frame). Did it in IE since it gave me an option to open in a new window instead.

FTFY.

Also, you didn't miss much. We tried Dinosaur Hunt and it was even worse than Savage Lands.
 
I'm half disappointed I missed multiplayer Dinosaur Hunt.  That game is such a shitshow, I might have been momentarily amused.

I'm setting up the TV while she's away this weekend.  Once I have it up and running, she's sure to fall in love and agree that I made the right decision.

You sure it's just the weekend?

 
They are probably just selling the gog version since its freely available at various nefarious places since its drm free. Which also means you'll never get updates

Just not worth it

Any time something says 'we will send you a download link', just avoid it because its obviously not a legit copy. There is never a reason for someone to send you a link to download a legit game

Online use and multi-player is NOT available with this version The key code is for single-player only. Please do not purchase if you want to use the game online.
Yeah, no thanks :speaktothehand:

The GOG Galaxy Client is required to access online features for No Man's Sky according to GoG website

Might as well be a keygen generated key and a download link from Pirate bay

Thanks guys for the info. I usually just get my games from Steam or bundle keys.
Didn't know how it would work with something like this.

Glad I didn't bite!

I got one for $9 and it's great. There are several light settings and it looks pretty good. I'm not a mechanical keyboard expert but the keys are very clicks and the keyboard feels nice.

Really a steal at that price.
