Yep, just picked this up :D
And don't forget to use GMG20-1FYLZ-EDG8R for an extra 20% off.
Also.
Since I have no interest in the game, but apparently need to play it for the story, I kind of want to wait for the 360 version to go cheap just so I can get some points out of it. I need to break this awful habit thought. Might break down and do this. EDIT: Holy shit! The code GMG20-1FYLZ-EDG8R gives you an extra 20% off which brings it down to $6!

Not seeing a buy button here... which is quite odd...
I'm in Denmark by the way..
Same here.
No luck in Finland, either. Too bad, just wait for the Steam sales I guess.

This isn't that crazy Russian steam loophole that can get your account banned, is it?
no perfectly legit! already bought (at least?) three games from them this year. good site, only problem is they may flag your card for suspicious activity as it's a european/UK site. found that out the bad way the first time i bought something and my card was locked at the ATM when withdrawing a large amount of cash, but a phone call solved it and i haven't had issues since.

Also this game is pretty good.
Didn't even consider that. Good call.

So far I've bought 2 games from them and I never got my card flagged. Might be the type of card.
$6 for a game that i wanted on the PC, but was going to get for $15 on Friday from Amazon for the 360....yea that works out fantastically.
Is this some weird US only offer? Or is GMG just being weird with us "outsiders"?
I've always been a bit dubious about this site, but I simply cannot pass up this deal.
Thanks for the tip.
their FAQ page says they are "out of keys for this game"
Sounds dodgy to me, but i'll keep trying. Hopefully not another russian import key distributor.
ah: http://blog.greenmangaming.com/2011/01/green-man-gaming-trading-introduction.html I wonder how exactly they pull this off.

I was just able to buy it for 4e, so if you're willing, you might want to give it another go.

Awesome now it works! Thanks for the heads up!
When I try to buy this game, the page refreshes and doesn't add anything to the basket... Anyone else get this? I guess they're out of keys again?
Edit: Seems to be a chrome issue, put it right in my basket in IE. Weird.

About GMG? They're definitely on the up and up. The site you may be thinking of is Direct2Play (though I've bought from the before as well and nothing bad has come from it).

Yeah, they were having a really good deal on Borderlands 2 before it was even released and I went for it. GMG is totally legit and pretty awesome. They've got a bunch of nice deals like that.
Totally buying this, thanks duder.
Anyone who buys from green man gaming, you should always check their blog beforehand because they almost always have an active 20% off code that stacks with all other discounts (like this one) and applies to anything in store, even brand new releases.
GMG20-1FYLZ-EDG8R
@kishinfoulux: No, I'm definitely thinking about GMG. I never did any research or anything, it's just that the prices I kept hearing sounded way too good to be true. Like $35 for Borderlands 2 before it was even released? Madness!
Spec Ops got got. Thanks for the heads up, dudes.
And anyone wondering about GMG as a reputable service: I've bought from them a number of times now and never had any trouble, even though the prices seem too-good-to-be-legit low sometimes.

They tend to have a lot of 20% off vouchers and stuff like that, which works even for newer titles. Sometimes exceptions, but mostly works for anything.
Damnit. I wish this was somewhere else; the last time I bought something from GMG I got my card flagged and had to get a new card.
This game is brilliant .... and so not GOTY. The story is great (not amazing, people need to calm down IMHO) but the actual game is good but kinda generic. It has a point to make and it executes well on it premise, and it's hard to not be impressed the first time you see Dubai buried in sand, but if this game is awarded GOTY because of it's story the medium of video games is going backwards.
EDIT: It's still worth buying FYI ... it was almost worth it at full price.
@pgn: The games you can trade in are few and far between. Essentially they have their own Steam-a-like client called Capsule that you access any non-Steam non-Origin tradable games from. Once you trade it you can no longer access it from Capsule.
You asked how they pull this off, Theo, I give you the DRM.
