preferably games and not coupons, but I'll still consider just giving them away[/QUOTE]

Have Sanctum and Nimbus, let those codes come to me!

Don't quite see how it's a rip-off. Two $5 coupons for a game that has been on sale for as cheap as $3 or so dollars (Renegade Ops) and Dirt 3 was given for free through graphics cards and whatnots. He's actually being quite reasonable IMO.

Its all how you look at it. I don't consider the codes to be worth all that much being that you could have purchased magicka dlc for .24 cents and got codes. That's what I did so I probably don't have the typical view of the value of the coupons. Plus I ended up with like 15 codes and used them all. Thanks magicka dlc!!!!

Renegade Ops was on sale on Steam for 3.74 during the holidays, and a lot of people got it for free as a gift too, Dirt 3 was given for free through graphics cards. Don't see how it's a rip-off.

I doubt most people thought that far ahead, they probably didn't think of purchasing magicka DLC for codes. Some of us thought the codes would be useless. I think asking for a $3 game is perfectly reasonable, but I personally wouldn't value the coupon codes as much as a $5 game would be. I wish I'd thought of purchasing magicka DLC, but TBH there wasn't much else I was interested in other than maybe Need For Speed Hot Pursuit.. but that'll probably be on Steam for a similar price in the future.

TwoThrones · Jan 31, 2012

I have an extra code that I won't be using. If anyone is interested, please PM me with a reasonable offer (Steam or not, I don't really care).

CheapLikeAFox · Jan 31, 2012

Personally, I don't see the logic of trading anything of value for the codes. I guess if you got a game for free or for about a dollar then you still get the $4 discount using the code. Trading a 3.74 game for a $5 code would just net a 1.26 discount so it just doesn't make too much sense unless someone just has the extra game lying around and wants to get their money back through the coupon.

Either way, I have steam keys for Eets and Max and the Magic Marker I am willing to trade for codes.

rjejr · Jan 31, 2012

Considered buying Spore yesterday for $12.49 on Amazon so I guess I will get it today. Was going to re-install it yesterday but I couldn't find my RLD code. $7.99 may not cleanse my soul for piracy but the game really wasn't all that good. My 7 yr. old wants it re-installed b/c he likes making monsters, he doesn't actually play it. Any chance this will play nice w/ my Steam account? I don't have the time to read 231 pages of comments, sorry.

Thanks Fox. Steam didn't find it but I added it manually. What I was hoping for was for Steam to do any updates - I'm running it on Win 7 now so I figured it needed to be patched. Runs ok so I guess we don't need anything. As I said my kid just liked making monsters so I didn't want to bother with setting up an EA account and having him doing anything online. I'm probably naive but I trust Steam/Valve more than EA.

The first post will answer your question quite easily.

If you're question is does it activate on steam, the answer is no. If your question is can you add it to steam as an outside game that shows up on your list, the answer is yes. Will it play nice? I guess it depends on the monster's moods that day.

Your coupon logic doesn't make sense

They're useless tomorrow so pretty much anyone who wants to save 5 bucks should trade anything they feel is 5 dollars or under to get one, the idea of "well it's only 1.26" doesn't matter, it's still a dollar twenty six.

It makes complete sense. The appeal of these coupons is to get games at $5 or close to $5 off a sale price. The closer you get to paying $5 for a coupon, the less of a discount you get on a game. So would I rather keep my $4 game and pay a buck extra on a game, or trade my $4 game and and save $1 on a game. That's really what it comes down to and that's why trading anything that wasn't free or dirt cheap for a coupon doesn't make sense.

Yes, the coupons are useless tomorrow. Further reason people expecting something someone paid 3-4 bucks for a coupon is a bit unrealistic.

my gosh guys, really ? we do have a dedicated trading section for all that coupon begging / trading.

Luchalma · Jan 31, 2012

Anybody want to trade anything for my code? No?
I don't really want anything from that list (the only thing I wanted from the bestsellers list was The Witcher and it never went on sale darn it). PM me and I'll give it to you.

Edit: Code gone.

Jiseru · Jan 31, 2012

heh, glad this happened. I was sitting on one code and was checking the sales on and off to see if anything would lower, so it finally became useful.

wilflare · Jan 31, 2012

hmm how do we activate the DA DLC codes?

headpiece747 · Jan 31, 2012

T-Money you did it again made me buy a game when my backlog is huge. Got Alice: Madness Returns that I have been wanting to try out. Thanks for the sale. Thank you to T1BillionX for the coupon.

EliotAndrews · Jan 31, 2012

I may not have gotten Dead Space 2 for free, but I can certainly live with "less than $5."

I am quite pleased with the end result.

Drabelincoln · Jan 31, 2012

If anyone had any extra codes I will buy them for a dollar each. PayPal gift.

Pros/cons of registering DA on Origin?

Amazon DVG Deals · Jan 31, 2012

[quote name='shinryuu']Pros/cons of registering DA on Origin?[/QUOTE]

Pros:

You get to register your game in a client that lives forever, essentially giving you 2 libraries for your game, 1 on Amazon and 1 on Origin.

I personally really enjoy the way Origin serves content too, in terms of the look and feel it is really clean, and download speeds are pretty quick.

Cons:

I'm not sure, some people aren't a fan of having another client on their computer for some reason...I can tell you that I have it running on my work laptop...which is a Lenovo with a 1 gig processor and 512 RAM and I notice 0 slowdown in performance.

Hope that answers your question.

Wait for the hamsters to catch up. Also, we're at, and have been at $4.99 on the base game for almost a week now (the Mac version activates on PC). This sale will end today at 11:59PM PST so if you want to grab it from us do so today

Heh, I was just asking about the DLC because I already have the base game. I guess I'm one of the few crazy people who enjoyed the Duke Nukem campaign so I was kind of waiting for the dlc to go on sale.

We should make t-shirts and start a fan club because I enjoyed the game as well. You and I will likely be right behind each other in making purchases on the DLC when the pricing flips...HAIL TO THE CHIEF BABY!

Hi T-Money,

Do you know if you are planning on matching or beating steam's price on the DLC?

stoned99 · Jan 31, 2012

Thanks. I was thinking of registering it on my brother's Origin account so it's easier to share across than Amazon. I don't know how the DRM works but I think it should work.

Any one willing to trade the 2 DNF DLCs for Orcs Must Die+DNF Base game Steam keys ?

Blade · Jan 31, 2012

So I only had $2.52 applied to DNF when I went to checkout. My order total is $2.48. I thought it was free with coupon?

Diad · Jan 31, 2012

Go Amazon for showin the love to CAGers! Picked up Civ V (was debating on IV or V but they say V is more beginner friendly). Also threw in my $5 promo code to make the deal even better!

JawnMan · Jan 31, 2012

If this has been answered before, I apologize, but question:

Since Civilization V is a Steamplay title, will the amazon PC download work on both a MAC and PC or is it solely PC. I know Amazon has a MAC download as well, but I figured since it's activating on STEAM , the cd-key could unlock both versions.

Thanks.

You must have had credit left over from a previous purchase. If you want to know specifics about what orders your promo credit was applied to I'd start a chat conversation with support and they can pull up your order history.

Also, you should be able to override the unused credit if you have a full promo code by just inputting the promo code at the check out screen. That's how I do it.

Oddly enough on my last purchase it applied .01 from one promo code and 4.99 from another.
