Does Saint's Row The Third have any issue with AMD hardware?
Ahahaha
I read somewhere that it's optimized for AMD hardware bro!

Edit: When you launch the game a in game promo for "Gaming Evolve AMD" appears, so no there's no issue with AMD
Bahahahahaha
Cool, thanks again bro :p
Yeah, I'd be wary about that. Single GPU might be okay (only okay, nowhere near nVidia performance) but >1 GPU, you will wish death upon Volition, just as I do.
There are forum posts from A YEAR AGO that talk about them "looking into it" and "working with AMD", yet there has not been a genuine performance fix since it came out.
I hate that game with a fucking passion.
No, Saints Row: The Third and Binary Domain are the only two games I've played that don't run acceptably well on my AMD hardware. Out of the two, SR3 runs worse.
Binary Domain can be run somewhat acceptably with some tweaking SR3 can NEVER be run. I don't even think I've had it run at 60fps flat even on low detail. Somehow, Sleeping Dogs runs like a fucking dream on my rig.

Fucking Volition.

Hey, can anyone tell me what the difference might be in those five Genesis packs and the pack I have, the "Sega Mega Drive Classics Collection"? I think I paid about the same, but I can't help but think they've added more games since I bought my one.

Thanks for posting all the deals. Very helpful.

All together, the five Genesis packs add up to 50 games. If this is what you've got, then you already have all the Genesis pack games (plus more) if you got every volume. At a glance, the Genesis collection has nothing you'd be missing.

List updated. <-- Full list of ongoing Amazon sale games which give Steam keys.

According to this thread the following two should be Steamworks titles, so added but still need confirmation:


This Amazon BF sale bundle has three Steam activated titles. You might be interested in adding it, xelios.

  • Viva Big Bundle of Games: $8.99
    • Airline Tycoon Deluxe
    • Alter Ego
    • Angel Code
    • Cargo - The Quest for Gravity
    • Crazy Machines: New From The Lab
    • Grand Ages Rome
    • Helldorado
    • Mata Hari
    • STORM Frontline Nation
    • Shadow Harvest: Phantom Ops

Just a heads up to anyone interested/keeping track: I picked up Blades of Time Special Edition and it DOES activate on Steam, even though the page doesn't mention it. Guessing the regular version does, too.

I think I'll finall bite on Binary Domain.

One more question, has anyone tried to buy a online code for PSN cards by buying outside the US? I know it works with PC Games since I have been doing it since last year, but I wonder if it's any different for PSN cards. Can anyone help me out?

Works fine (I've picked up 3 $50 in the last two months and I live in Ireland), throw one in your basket, go to the checkout, at the last step it will say you need a US address, at the bottom right of the screen theres an option to change billing address, click on that, throw in a US address (pick a state that doesnt charge tax on Amazon e.g. Ohio or Illinois), checkout. You get the key (and its added to your Amazon game library). You can then change back to your old/proper billing address. So just like buying a game really.

You want the ones that say online code in the title, i.e. the $20 - http://www.amazon.com/dp/B004RMK4BC/?tag=neogaf0e-20 and $50 - http://www.amazon.com/dp/B004RMK4P8/?tag=neogaf0e-20

Gods and Kings is saying $7.49 for the Mac download but $29.99 for the PC download. Does anyone know what's up with that? Can I download the "Mac" version since I assume it's just a Steam code that works cross-platform?

It seems like a review of the Mac download indicates that I should be fine but I wanted to see if anyone in the thread has done it. Thanks!

Already been confirmed earlier in this thread, and I can confirm it worked for me too.

Great, thanks! I figured that was the case but wanted to get a GAF confirmation -- hadn't checked the thread and saw it on the charts on Amazon and got super excited. Glad I waited!

Oh, it says this item is currently unavailable. =(
 
This is why I hate the Red Sox, because curt shillings company goes bankrupt and now I am forced to buy koa on origin. :(

I actually hate them because of jimmy Fallon and Fever Pitch

Stated by Amazon representative but still unconfirmed/no link given:

Amazon Rep said:
Also Black Friday will include this bundle for $7.49:
  • Victoria Franchise
  • Hearts of Iron III Collection
  • King Arthur Collection
  • King Arthur II
  • Achtung Panzer 1943
  • Gettysburg Armored Warfare
We'll have Steam keys for the games that have Steam counterparts (I think). Need to check with Paradox.

THQ Medley is out and Saint's Row related sales seem to be over, or at least reduced to only 50% off.
