Well, I got 3 games but now I've tried DA:Origins, Dead Space, BulletStorm and Crysis and it keeps asking for CC info so I guess that's as far as I go.

 

[MormaPope]

Their shareholders won't care because this is incredibly insignificant.

Thousands of dollars of merchandise given away isn't that insignificant.

 

[TheContact]

I've maxed out at 3 games

me too

 

[TheVoidDragon]

Code no longer works. Managed to get Dead Space and Simcity 4 though.

 

[Canis lupus]

Well it was fun. Got BF2 and Dragon Age. Can anyone confirm if making another account will work?

 

[Jarmel]

Capped out at 6. Not a bad run.

 

[MormaPope]

Capped out at 6. Not a bad run.

I got to 10 by the beginning of this morning and gave up.

 

[Crayons]

Wish I was up that late last night to see this, I could've got way more than 5.

Yes I'm greedy.

 

[cyborg009]

I did this 5 times and got 8 games pretty nice..

now if my PC can run them....

 

[Codeblue]

I wound up with 10 games and some Mirror's Edge DLC. I'm half expecting to come back and find this working again in six hours.

 

[MasterShotgun]

I don't quite know if it's dead. I just got Red Alert 3, but I received the "Your order is being processed message" for the first time. I'm not sure if that's good or bad, but I'm officially out. I'd say I got a pretty rockin' haul.

(Too bad my D key is screwed up. I can't actually play most properly of them right now.)

 

[Psychoward]

I'm stuck at the activation screen for Dead Space 2. I can't get to the main menu, even though it accepts my code, whenever i click play it just brings me back to activate it again. I tried restarting Origin and the same thing happened.

 

[Mavromatis]

Just got the mail for Mass Effect. I added it when this thread was on page 2.

 

[OldJadedGamer]

Thousands of dollars of merchandise given away isn't that insignificant.

When it isn't a physical good, nothing is lost besides bandwidth.

 

[Metalmurphy]

Managed to get BF2 Complete and C&C4

Now I'm getting invalid code. But I don't get it if I don't login first, but after I login I get redirected to the main page.

 

[Codeblue]

Well it was fun. Got BF2 and Dragon Age. Can anyone confirm if making another account will work?

Pretty sure it would work. If you add games without being logged in the code still drops the price down to $0, so it's still working in some capacity.

 

[Pikma]

I got this thanks to Codeblue:

NFS Shift is the only one I managed to get by myself, I wanted to get Alice too, that's the only one I missed.

 

[Slayer-33]

hahaha just got Bulletstorm and Shift 2.

 

[Fitz]

Literally just now got a second game.

 

[Crayons]

Got another email, this time with Darkspore.

There is still hope.

 

[NoLootBoxDev]

thanks the link worked.

 

[HardRojo]

Are some of you being asked for CC info and then proceed? I stopped when I started being asked for my CC info and that was after I got a third game, there's no way I'm giving EA that info, it could backfire.

If it asks for CC info that means that the price adjusted back to normal after you logged in.

 

[Kingven]

I just got burnout paradise and shift 1... after getting the first one i deleted all cache history.. and tried again... The code still working.... massive origin bans on monday?

 

[Slayer-33]

Invalid promo code fuck lol

 

[DTKT]

I got to 10 by the beginning of this morning and gave up.

At the same time, if you assume that everyone who took a game is 1 sale, that's a lot of potential lost profits.

It's probably not true but I can see a manager taking that position.

Is there a way to avoid it?

 

[ScepticMatt]

whenever i enter the promo code the site hangs a while and then the promo code is removed. What to do? (Firefox/Linux)

Are you logged in? If so, log out.

They probably will.

 

[vidcons]

Seems to still work.

Just got Shank and Mirror's Edge.

Try deleting the cookies and logging back in.

Also now I got the mail for Bulletstorm. The confirmations are coming, I assume others are on their way.

If I get all the games I "ordered" I won't have enough hdd space to download them all. Buying a new hdd might be the cost of this venture.

 

[TheVoidDragon]

The code doesn't work for me, it just refreshes the page and puts it back to full price.

 

[Salsa]

well I feel pretty stupid having missed this.. :/

then again, Origin

EA can't afford to ban half their Origin userbase.

 

[Codeblue]

Try clearing cookies, using a mobile device, using the client, proxys, or incognito windows. YMMV.

 

[Psychoward]

I just realized, you might be able to do it with BioWare points as well, so you can buy all their dlcs.

[Jarmel]

LOLOLOLOL worked for me again.

Just got Mass Effect.

 

[VibratingDonkey]

Let's see if FIFA 12 pops up anywhere I guess. Already own or can't be arsed for anything else on there.

What the hell is a federated state of Micronesia?

 

[TheVoidDragon]

LOLOLOLOL worked for me again.

How did you get it working again?

 

[Kingbrave]

Got 7 games

Fifa 12
Burnout Paradise
Crysis
Crysis Warhead
Mirror's Edge
The Sabotuer
Mirror's Edge

and got 1 Burnout for my kid so we can play together...

 

[Jarmel]

How did you get it working again?

I used incognito window but I think it might not work actually as I got to the order completed page and hit submit and it said "Payment Authorization Failed".

 

[ColonelColon]

So, this code could only be used 3 times per account, right? And only once per transaction?

 

[jmizzal]

I only got 3 Mechs 2, Mirrors Edge and The Sabutor

I was here lastnite I wouldve got more if my laptop was better and could run those new games, ugh I couldve had like 20 lol

 

[Sajjaja]

Think they crashed or finally fixing the problem. 503 Unavailable for me.

EDIT: Nvm.

 

[Crayons]

ymmv, i got to use it 6 times.

New page

 

[AdawgDaFAB]

Last night I got a bunch and I used http://store.origin.com/?ipr=ty + incognito to get DAO Awakening just now.
I tried again to get the Mirror's Edge DLC but it brings up the CC info stuff when I go to check out, and if I click cart it shows the price back at $5. Same for when I tried to get the Mass Effect Pinnacle Station DLC and both Shanks.

 

[TheVoidDragon]

I used incognito window but I think it might not work actually as I got to the order completed page and hit submit and it said "Payment Authorization Failed".

Doesn't work for me. When i log in it puts the price back up to $19.99 and then says invalid code.
