Serious Sam 3 is $12 here: http://www.getgamesgo.com/product/serious-sam-3-bfe
Bought it, but then it said my steam key was invalid. Apparently this means my credit card was rejected, so I ordered it again with paypal and now it's working. Hope I don't get charged twice.

Either way, great deal.

I bought SS3 and my purchase went through fine, then I bought another game and my card was rejected and I had to use Paypal. #firstworldproblems

if you activate a game on steam can you add it to your gifting library?  What happens if you activate a game you already own?

I should try this with an indie bundle game.

You can't add games to your inventory with a code. If you already own it and try to activate it, nothing will happen, it'll just say you already own it.

Looks like I was too slow on JC2. Not like I'm going to have time to play anything, soon. I'm guessing this was the download version, anyway.

off the top of my head:  resident evil 3ds, vita stuff, max payne 3, and mass effect 3.  those are stuff I'm getting around release, at least.  I know of Kingdoms of Amalur and Syndicate, but those can wait until steam/origin sale 2012.

also GTA5 if rockstar releases it around the same time as they did LA Noire and RDR.

Ubisoft should release a patch that replaces all the content in the game with rabbids and motion-based minigames and issue an official apology for accidentally releasing the incorrent version of the game.

Alice Madness Returns is $7.50 on Amazon.  If you have one of those $5 off codies from buying a digital game around the holiday season (things like Dead Island, Dungeon Siege 3 or Renegade Ops), it drops down to $2.50.  Registers on Origin but it's not required.

www.amazon.com/Electronic-Arts-40696ess-Returns1-Alice/dp/B0053YQ8E0/

Everyday is another EA deal the code will work with.  Just subtract $5 from the prices here

16:  Dragon Age 1 ultimate + 2 = $12
17:  Medal of Honor = $7
18:  Battlefield Bad company 2 = $7
19:  Dead Space 2 = $7*
20:  Bullestorm = $7
21:  Crysis 2 = $10

*Dead Space 1 and 2 were $5 to match the steam sale, and free if you used a code.  The digital stock of cd-keys seems to be gone for Dead Space 2.


I got Alice and might get Medal of Honor.

Dead Space 2
Bullestorm
Crysis 2

Are all really good.


And Dragon Age Origins is great and while 2 is lame that's at least a good deal for it.

I don't replay games though and unfortunately have beaten all those.

Alice doesn't interest me.

It's not really the price that's the issue its more the investment of time. Whether its $5 or 99 cents its probably all the same. It's more about whether you want to use the time on it or something better and good lord there is a lot better. If you have the free time and literally nothing to play then yeah its worth it at that price even though it has tons of issues. If you have anything remotely decent to play at the current time then no. Play those games. It's a really annoying game to play but its not the worst thing in the world.

Sign up for Bing Rewards, every 125 points you get you can redeem for 100 points.

I have almost 1600 points (plus the couple thousand from even prior) just from bing rewards. I do my daily searches every morning at work.

You should get like a couple hundred just for registering, normally, plus the introductory searches.
