Multi Latest Steam & General Gaming Bargains: Read first post!

for some reason gamefly will not accept my card, which is f'ing annoying. (especially as I've got stuff off D2D before they merged)

 

if you cant get RAGE from gamefly you can reserve and collect it from your local pcworld for £4.97

tyepye is officially awesome. Thanks again!

 

Even better, go through quidco and get it even cheaper. http://www.quidco.com/tesco/ (4th one down). Think it works out about £2 making it £26 in total

 

How does this compare to the Rage - Anarchy Edition?

And if it compares favourably would someone in the UK do the same for me as for Aterius?

 

As far as I can tell those two DLC's are the ones that come with the anarchy edition, so it is identical.

And send me a PM if you want me to grab you a copy, as it turns out my card was being stupid, not the site.

 

does tbis register on steam? I would like a copy of rage and its a good price

 

Yes it does, downloading it via steam now myself (small warning, it is 21GB)

 

New budle from http://www.indieroyale.com/.

Unstoppable Gorg

Theme Hospital now at gog if you don't have it yet $6

Holy Smokes.....bought

 

New Humble Bundle, too. Rather underwhelming this time around.

 

Kiytan couldn't help out anyway on Rage (still many thanks for the effort! ).

If anyone else from the UK would be willing and able to get that Rage deal for me I'd be much obliged.

EDIT: While I'm waiting I couldn't help picking up The Witcher: Enhanced Edition for a measly $4.99 over at GOG. That's despite already owning in on STEAM and on phyical media (Platinum Edition).

 

Sins of a Solar Empire Rebellion can be had for $29.95 (instead of $39.95) if you go to:

http://www.sinsofasolarempire.com/store

and follow:

"Pre-order Discount: Owners of Sins of a Solar Empire: Trinity and Sins of a Solar Empire: Diplomacy can receive a $10 discount, just login to apply."

I logged in with my Stardock login (in my case this was different from my Iron clad on-line login) and then the discount was applied. I then went to order the game, which is still in dollars, but the star dock page converts it to pounds, where it displayed the price of £18.16. I chose to pay with paypal, which I didn't realise at the time pushed up the price slightly to £19.28.

Once the transaction was complete, it took me back to the stardock page and displayed a key for me to enter into steam, who incidentally are charging £24.99.

A little effort to save over 20% and current pre-orders get access to the beta (via steam!), which I am about to try out

I was a big fan of the original Sins and their light touch approach where DRM was concerned. A little sad to see this is a steam works game but at least it's multiplayer will likely benefit from the steam works feature set.

 

Dunno about that. Botanicula was released just today, looks very interesting!

EDIT: Bought it for $10, which is the price Botanicula was on its own at release yesterday. And for that you get 3 other games, the Botanicula OST (which is awesome) and a film. Damn good value imo.

And by gawwwd is Botanicula pretty! Deliberately playing it with over-saturated colours and my eyes are melting.

prett good deals on the Mount & Blade series, personally though, M&B: Warband is the better of the 3 and for £3.74 you can't complain

 

Are sites like this the real deal, always been tempted but never committed to any purchase

 

Alan Wake, on PC: £12.49 for normal, or £14.52 for the Collector's edition.

Activates on Steam and remains as a download from Amazon "forever". Seems to work so far.

 

^Question, if someone activates it on steam, what's stopping you giving the download version from amazon to someone else? I assume despite steam there's still some sort of account registration that needs to be done that ties into the game key?

Not that anyone will care about this one, Amazon have mafia II for £6.15.

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Take-2-Mafia-II-DVD/dp/B001W101NM/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1335049188&sr=8-1

 

Presumably so, either way it's nice to have a non-Steam option available.

I've not really heard much about AW either, has a good metacritic score, but past that I'm not sure.
