Yeah, if you had one and the game was eligible it'd show up right before you complete the purchase in the order summary


Iron brigade, shadow planet and especially mark of the ninja are ridiculous deals.

What time will the Microsoft deal activate on the 27th? I want to get one before you inevitably run out of keys.

I think these usually go up at 12 AM Pacific Time, but then take an hour or so to propagate.

I know it wasn't looking too good, but is there still a slim possibility of Guild Wars 2 going on sale before the end of the month?

There's one other deal that I haven't seen posted here yet:

Dark Souls: Prepare to Die Edition: $17.49 ($12.49 after coupon)

I think that's the lowest price yet (AC) on Dark Souls.

Are any of those games other than Mark Of The Ninja special? Planning on buying the pack, because $5 is a good price for Ninja, but I haven't really heard much about the other games.

Deadlight is supposedly not very good past the first 20 minutes, don't know much about it. I also haven't played Iron Brigade or Toy Soldiers but know that a lot of people do like them. Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet is pretty cool, though. It's a metroidvania and nothing super incredible in terms of pure gameplay but its art and atmosphere are very, very good. One of the big brains behind the game is an artist named Michel Gagné who has a pedigree in film animation.

By the way if you ever heard of a Doublefine game called Trenched, that's actually what Iron Brigade is. It had to have its name changed because of a copyright issue in Europe.

Any word on TERA? I know a while back you said you were working on that (since GW2 didn't happen).
I think a ton of people would be interested at $5 or even $10, just to lock in the founder's status when it goes F2P.

Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet is about 5 hours long (seriously, it would be very difficult to get 10 hours out of it) and has multiple major flaws, but is decent overall for what it tries to do. I actually thought the mostly unnoticed XBLA game Microbot did a much better job with the same concept.

The demo for Iron Brigade was fun as hell, but I've been waiting for a price drop on it.

Hey Tony, you probably don't have much control over this but will buying digital games ever be supported by the "mobile" version of Amazon? I realize that I can just run through the 'full' site on my mobile browser, but it's inconvenient :v:

Hey Tony, in case you guys were looking for more solid f2p games to market, Warframe seems like a good option. It's still in beta, but this space ninja meets Mass Effect 3 co-op is insanely fun. I just discovered the game yesterday and along with Path of Exile, the f2p market seems rock solid in terms of quality.

Didn't see it mentioned here but Max Payne 3 is on sale again and eligible for coupons so :10bux:. I'd passed on it every time but finally figured it won't get any cheaper for a long time and why let the EC credit go to waste.
