I may pick up Warhammer: Space Marine and The Darkness II

Edit. This sale is just for the US, apparently. :(

I bought DAO Ultimate for $30 just a couple of weeks ago... God damnit.

@Jack268: I got it for free because apparently some people were having trouble downloading Mass Effect 3 through Amazon so they gave everybody a free EA game that bought it. Teehee.

Wow, dragon age is really cheap and L.A. Noire, I'll think about it. thanks for the info duder. indie royale is up too.

lol

I would buy the dragon age pack if it could be activated on steam.

Origin is the devil

Anyone that doesn't have the Dragon Age pack and doesn't pick it up FOR TEN FUCKING DOLLARS because it uses Origin is a child.

I bought DA 1 Ultimate for $12 on Origin back in December but haven't fired it up yet. I have yet to play anything on Origin, so what's with all the hate?

Got all excited about it but heh, no love for Canadians.

Don't worry. I love Canadians.

Doesn't work in Canada, so I wait patiently for the summer Steam sale.

Amazon doesn't even have a downloadable games platform in the UK :<

That's a good price for Crusader Kings 2, one of the best games of the year so far. Darkness 2 is a great (if slightly short) FPS.

How come Big Rig: Europe isn't in your highlights for $5!?

@MikkaQ: You are thinking too small, sir. Easter is just a few days away, why not have a spring sale? That's where Steam is headed, big sales every quarter.

Why is the only one I don't own (and actually want) the only one that's not cheap? :(

Guess so, but man that summer sale they always go full throttle with weird ARGs and stuff.

But yeah spring sale... that's gotta happen soon.

Interesting though think I'll just wait (as much as I use Amazon for other things) for the summer/spring sale thing at Steam instead. Plus if any of the games have DLC, it's just easier to go through steam to get that as well as other things that are on the wishlist.

To all people who are upset about this being US only: Find a random US address and add it to your amazon account, then use that to buy the downloadable games.

I live in Australia and I just bought the Darkness 2 from there!

Super tempted to snag The Darkness II for $12 and some change, but I have a massive backlog that only keeps getting bigger, so think I'm going to hold off for now.

I love Amazon, but I don't want yet another system I have to go through for fucking digital rights bullshit - no matter how cheap. So I have to ask, what is the DRM system that they implement? Do they have a downloader/interface like every other fucker on earth forces on you? (Impulse, Steam, Origin, D2D, etc)?

They have their own simple downloader, but that is the only software they make you use. Plus, if the game activates on steam you can just put the code into there and download it through steam.

My question: Why are you always so angry? My answer: Most of the games can be redeemed on Steam/Origin. And no, they don't make you download a separate installer.

What makes you think I'm always angry you son of a bitch? :P

Also, sweet. If I can redeem on Steam (or if a purchase simply has no dependent DRM), I'm all over that.

AAAAAAAAHhhh! Space Marine is 10 bux. I wish I wasn't really broke right now. Yes, I'm that broke that $10 matters.

Will the Amazon Dragon Age bundle give me a serial key that i can redeem trough steam?

I would much prefer being able to keep all my games in one place

Does anybody know how Shift 2 compares to the first game? I've played some of the first and it was pretty decent and I could go for a sim style racer about now.

L.A. Noire? Fuh-fuh-five dollars? Fuck it, man! This is to make up for the swag I didn't buy at PAX!

edit: Aaand you can't register on steam. Balls.

Many of the games on Amazon have user reviews where people give information as to whether the title is Steamworks or not.

I'll probably pick up Crusader Kings II, that's good price. I'll probably buy Saboteur again (for the third time, I buy it beat it, sell it, wait a few years, buy it again, so on and so forth), I wonder how well they ported it?

Do they activate on steam?

Thank you for sharing sir, I ended up buying GTA4 so now I have it on PC as well. :)

Awesome, Bus Driver is on sale for 3.99. That's a steal.

You can activate the Dragon Age bundle on Origin, but not Steam. I guess it's better than nothing.
