Sweet deal. I'd recommend Civ V over Mafia II, unless you're unusually opposed to strategy games. Civ V is very easy to get in to and--once you're hooked--very hard to get out of. It's the ultimate, easily graspable "just one more turn..." game.

Mafia II is still one of my favorite games of its generation, though.

 

[Roland1979]

I love strategy games, part of why i'm focusing on PC gaming again. Civilization V seems to be a great game to receive. It was on my list, partly because of Angry Joe's review.

 

[Madn]

Thanks, got it!

 

[Ragnamith]

Got mine after waiting the 24 hours, thanks again

 

[diablos991]

Tried last night and voting was down...
Tried today and new user registration is down...

This sucks!

 

[intheinbetween]

shit, what a bummer. I chose CiV5 but I got a Mafia II code -_-

 

[DarkLegion]

Argh voting is down. Would love for a chance at Civ V

 

[Mulgrok]

oddly, I would have voted without the promise of a free game if it didn't require me to sign up at their site. I am too lazy to go through that for every site

 

[Barzul]

Voting down....voting down.

 

[Paskil]

Clicked the link in my email today and immediately got another email with the code. Thanks again, GAF.

 

[Ifrit]

Got my code thanks gaf

 

[Roto13]

Still saying I haven't voted. I guess my votes didn't go through. I'll have to vote again when they site goes back up. If it ever goes back up.

 

[Sentenza]

Still completely unable to vote.
Frankly I don't even care about the free game that much (I have Civ V plus expansion and Mafia II was already in at least a couple of bundles), I just wish I had a chance to browse what the candidates are.

 

[PandaPedinte]

Still completely unable to vote.

I'm still unable to submit my votes because the site goes up for some minutes but never enough to submit my votes.

 

[Sentenza]

Oh, great.
After many attempts and a lot of frustration I clicked on "Submit your vote" after selecting just two categories and now I'm apparently unable to browse all the other categories because it says I already voted.
To add insult to the injury, as I got the confirmation mail to "choose my game" and clicked on the confirmation link, it said I didn't vote yet and I'm not eligible for the game.

I swear this must be the most disastrous, convoluted and unreliable site I crossed for this kind of initiative.

 

[Doomshine]

According to CVG I have voted, according to GMG I haven't... hope they can still verify it.

 

[Metalic Sand]

Same thing happened to me. Keeps telling me i never voted :/

 

[Metrotab]

Having the same issue here. Maybe they need to update the voting database first or something?

*sigh*

Once again YOU HAVE TO WAIT 24 HOURS! Highlight, underline, italics, #swagalicioussnoop.gif here

The "you haven't voted" will not change for 24 hours. If you registered on CVG successfully and they said "thanks for voting!" you're fine!

 

[Chance Hale]

David Cage in tears. Looking forward to finally experiencing Mafia 2's glorious physx support, played it on the 360 back when it came out.

Edit: Nevermind as to the first joke. Forget these awards have a cut off date earlier in the year. That youtube category makes me sad :/

 

[Metrotab]

*sigh*

I really should have read the 3 page thread. Oh well, guess I'll get it tomorrow.

My customer support email is kinda useless now though.

 

[Metalic Sand]

*sigh*

Not everyone goes through the whole thread. Thanks though.

 

[jediyoshi]

Got through, here goes my votes

 

[CuthbertAllgoodz]

haha I have been dumb and accidentally spoiled the shit out of myself with the section about the moment of the year...

 

[squall23]

I keep getting an error message.

 

[leehom]

Finally voted, but it still stays says I haven't voted. I want Civ 5

 

[$h@d0w]

got my game thanks for head

 

[co1onel]

Finally voted, but it still stays says I haven't voted.

Same for me.

 

[Yasae]

Doesn't work atm:

 

[HarryDemeanor]

Finally voted, but it still stays says I haven't voted. I want Civ 5

Gotta wait 24 hours for it to process.

 

[DogMeat77]

Sweet. I just got my steam code and activated it.

Thanks for the heads up on this.

 

[Visualante2]

Moment of the year spoilers hugely irresponsible and against the spirit of awards in general. Fuck you GJ.

 

[poopninjamvc3mk]

Got my Civ 5 on the first try. Nice

 

[Loomba]

Just got mine and activated fine, thanks!

 

[Impeccable]

It's been almost 48 hours and still nothing for me, oh well. Good idea.

 

[belushy]

Sweet got CiV code a few minutes ago with this. Thanks for bringing to our attention OP.

 

[Chairmanchuck]

I already waited for like... one and a half day.

Didnt get any email after I voted and I still get this "matrix error" on GMG.

 

[MrCunningham]

Got my copy of Civ V right now. Cool.

 

[def sim]

Thanks for letting us know. This worked several hours after completion.

 

[Wizz-Art]

Wonderful, just received my Civ 5 key after voting 6 hours ago. Thanks GMG.

 

[TCRS]

voting is temporarily disabled :/

 

[fierrotlepou]

Looks like I haven't voted yet.

Lies, I tell ya. LIES!

The moment my votes will be registered will be the moment that the games ran out. I'm sure of it.

 

[M*A*S*H]

I was having the same problem. Fixed it by changing my gmg email to the one I used to sign up for cvg/gj as detailed here https://greenmangaming.zendesk.com/home#recent

 

[Setsuna]

free stuff you say? reminds me of lamar from gta5

When there's some shit to be won, Goddamit, I want it.

 

[Majukun]

got my code for civ V,yay!

It's been almost 48 hours and still nothing for me, oh well. Good idea.

did you confirm your account on cvg (if you were not already registered)?
you need to receive the confirmation code and put it in the confirmation screen to be able to partecipate to promotions

 

[deroli]

I really hope everything works as intended and I'll get my free game. Right now, GMG says I haven't voted yet.
It would be the first time I get something gaming related for free. I never made use of any exploits, did not stockpile free xbox live points or registered for the same offer with dozens of different e-mail adresses... SO I DESERVE MY FREE GAME GODDAMN!!
I chose Mafia 2 btw. The original one was great for its time and even though its sequel was not praised that much, I'm still curious to play it. And no way I have enough time for Civ lol

for the nyh time..did you waited at least 24 hours..that's how much tit takes for the system to register your vote..it says it too

i got mine slightly earlier (voted yesterday at 17,checked for the code at 13 today),but still you have to wait

 

[Chairmanchuck]

I was having the same problem. Fixed it by changing my gmg email to the one I used to sign up for cvg/gj as detailed here https://greenmangaming.zendesk.com/home#recent

Both are the same. Its my standard-email. Both also have the same passwords.

Edit: I just send an email to the GJ-Support.

 

[Impeccable]

got my code for civ V,yay!

Yeah I did, I'll just wait - I know I've done everything correctly. For whatever reason it's just taking really long for me I guess.

 

[Silex]

Doesn't work atm:

Check the email that you used.
In my experience this error happens if you try to use banned email services (Mailinator etc.) or some other problematic addresses, or if you tried too many times and you are on cooldown in the system.
