Figured I'd post this right quick, not sure if you all know, but looks like D2D is implementing a "Lowest Price Guarantee"

For more details, check out:

It's good through December, so it looks like this just applies to the Christmas deals.

It also only applies to Steam, Gamersgate, & Gamestop. (I wonder if Impulse is pissed that they weren't deemed worthy of pricematching).

They also only give you credit towards another D2D purchase, not cash back or an at point of sale discount.

Seems that D2D is pretty aggressive with their pricing these days. It doesn't matter much to me, since I only buy cheap old-ish DRM-free games from them.

*Authorized Internet Retailers are:
•Gamestop.com
•GamersGate.com
•Steampowered.com

Love that fine print ;-)

I shopped there once and they screwed me over, so I'll never shop there again.

A few years ago, they had a deal with my ISP where I could get a discount on certain games using my ISP credentials. I bought one game (my very first digital download purchase) and had no problems with it until the deal with my ISP ended. Suddenly my D2D account no longer existed and I could not download the game anymore. Of course I didn't discover this until after an OS rebuild when I went to re-download the game and install it. I contacted D2D and their attitude was like "too bad, so sad, have a nice day". Thank gawd it was only one game, but after that, I will never deal with them again.

D2D its a great place to buy, i own some games there, and somes are DRM FREE,
they have awesome offers everyweek at crazy prices like this week "Rockstar Games
Week", I tried to buy part of the collection of Rockstar because the prices are crazy,
but i figured the offer of this week is restricted to purchase only on USA, Canada
and UK :(

D2D, Gamersgate, Steam and GOG are differents, its all about the kind of games you
want to buy, casuals, news, modern, or Good Old Games, offcourse when its all
about Good Classics always come to my mind GOG.COM!!!

Thanks guys to bring us this cool service and this nice place to meet and
make friends :)
