thanks for the fable info!


still no windows 8 for me ^_^
i was thinking of win 7 at some point soonish

win 8 looks like some junk that would work on a 'zune-iphone'
maybe its just how they showcase it on the commercials or something

I need advice regarding Paradox sales on amazon.

Is Crusader Kings II good? Better than Europa Universalis III?
Is A game of Dwarves good?

I don't know if I should buy only Crusader Kings pack or Paradox 2012 Ultimate Pack. It's only 5 us dollars, but Starvoid and War of the roses are multiplayer only (please correct me if i'm wrong) and I'm not particularly interested in these games.

Today's GG Dailys:
If someone still does not have'em:
Darksiders $5, Steam
http://www.gamersgate.com/DD-DARKSIDERS/darksiders?caff=1869351
?caff=1869351

Darksiders 2 $14, -75%, Steam
http://www.gamersgate.com/DD-DARKSIDERS2/darksiders-ii?caff=1869351
Darksiders 2 Season Pass $6.80 -66%
http://www.gamersgate.com/DLC-D2SP/darksiders-ii-season-pass-dlc?caff=1869351
and most of the DLC is also on sale for -50%

on the (much) more interesting side
Frozen Synapse - RED. $3.38 -66%,, DRM Free
http://www.gamersgate.com/DD-FZR/frozen-synapse-red-dlc
I think someone on the Mode7 forums also said this works with the Steam Version but I am not sure

Frozen Synapse Soundtrack $2.04
http://www.gamersgate.com/DD-FZOST/frozen-synapse-soundtrack?caff=1869351

or if you don't have any of it
Frozen Synapse Complete $11.90, DRM Free
http://www.gamersgate.com/DDB-FSCP/frozen-synapse-complete-pack-bundle?caff=1869351

and on special notice
Crysis $5, Securom (US only)
http://www.gamersgate.com/DD-CRYSIS/crysis?caff=1869351

Crysis Max. Ed., $7.49, -75%, SecuRom (US only)
http://www.gamersgate.com/DDB-CRYME/crysis-maximum-edition-bundle?caff=1869351

Crysis2 Max. Ed. $10, -75% SecuRom, redeemable on Origin (US only)
http://www.gamersgate.com/DDB-CRYME/crysis-maximum-edition-bundle?caff=1869351

note that the Crysis Complete Editions (US only) is also still on sale. for $14
http://www.gamersgate.com/DDB-CRYSISCP/crysis-collection-bundle?caff=1869351

So, like I bought the 2012 pack and when I went to access my Steam key....all the keys on in my Amazon library vanished leaving only downloads?

CK2 has better user score than EU3 on metacritic.
So, the first Crusader Kings doesn't come with Steam key?

Thanks, pal. I was worried I was going to miss out on this one.

Yeah, it's stand alone.

And GMG has the Risen 2 DLCs on 66% sale.

Crusader King Complete is drm free

Hey guys,

For those of you having problems viewing keys, it is just a function of the system getting hammered a bit (lay off the sauce system!), it should resolve itself within an hour or so. Also, and I'll put this in the OP. We are definitely going to run out of keys for the Paradox pack today (1/31) pretty quickly. I just spoke with my Paradox contact (he's in Iceland, I guess it is later in the day there ), they are going to try and get us keys by Friday at the latest and have agreed to keep the promotion up until the end of the day on Saturday. The Editor's Choice coupon will be extended FOR THIS PRODUCT ONLY until the end of the day on Saturday, assuming we get the keys.

So, hopefully we'll get more keys between now and the end of the day on Friday.

Cheers,
Tony

NOTE FOR JANUARY: We will continue to add games and titles to the EC list throughout the month of January. I am continually in conversation with our publishers about including and promoting their titles during January. Many people in the retail industry work insane hours prior to and during the holidays. As such, many of us are on vacation in early January. This should be referenced before asking "Will XYZ Game Be on the EC List for $XXX.XX""

CK1 is DRM free, but you still need a key to register the game at PDX forums for that shiny badge.

CAG thread seems to indicate people can purchase the bundles, but confirmation of orders is somewhat delayed. Also keys (even existing ones) are not showing even with refresh (probably due to the load on servers :/).

But the Lego LOTR is already gone :(

Your ultimate pack link goes to the pint sized pack.
