If you're a physical collector like me, this is a pretty badass deal. All are physical PC releases.

Each one comes with:

An exclusive SteelBook case
Full-color instruction manual
DRM-free game disc
Soundtrack CD
Mini art print with Steam key

But just a chance to own Axiom Verge in this form for $9.99 is more than worth it.

Games for $9.99:

Nuclear Throne
Rogue Legacy
Axiom Verge
Guacamelee! Super Turbo Championship Edition
Punch Club
Jotun: Valhalla Edition
Awesomenauts
Chariot
Stories: The Path of Destinies
Thomas Was Alone

These are apparently very limited run so might be worth something some day. *shrug*

I got Axiom Verge and Rogue Legacy. Love steelbooks.

 

[The Broken Ska Record]

I'm still salty that I've exchanged Axiom Verge three times from GameStop and it said the codes were used every time.

 

[Gestault]

Just to clarify for others, these are physical PC releases. I wasn't familiar with Gametrust.

 

[Amir0x]

Yup I'll put that in OP

 

[SinCityAssassin]

I do like looking at those cases, too bad ori and the blind forest isn't also discounted

 

[TangoAlphaLima]

I'm still salty that I've exchanged Axiom Verge three times from GameStop and it said the codes were used every time.

Wait, what? The Steam codes that came in this sealed package were already redeemed in three separate packaged you opened? WTF? How does that happen?

 

[sixteen-bit]

Nuclear Throne rocks, y'all

 

[FaintDeftone]

I'd be in for Axiom Verge if it was the PS4 version. Love the packaging though.

I dunno, Keygens?

 

[Thebeardofknowledge]

wait

these are empty with a steam code ?

Thomas Was Alone is interesting, if anyone is interested give it a chance

although it won't be a Steelbook, Axiom Verge will be released as a physical copy on PS4 later this year.

 

[The Broken Ska Record]

Yup. They were sealed all three times. I gave up on the last one. I still have it on my shelf in my room.

 

[Living Proof]

Same thing here.

I wasn't really drawn to any of these steelbooks (the art itself is fine but most just look like the standard art pieces seen everywhere), but since I love a few of these games and enjoyed most of them I was happy to buy a few.

The codes didn't work for two of them (and I didn't/couldn't test all of them since I owned most already on multiple platforms), and though GS was nice enough exchanging them the first time, I got accused of stealing them the second time around. Not a big loss, of course, but what kind of moron would steal codes for games that regularly go on sale for spare change?

 

[chubigans]

It's that easy for people to generate Steam keys?

Actually I can guess what happened...when you request keys from Steam, you specify the seller your using or use a default listing like Retail Distribution. So let's say I request 10k keys for Retail Dist.

Now if I want to do another run of 10k, I should request it the same way right? But that actually gives me 10k keys that are duplicates of the last 10k I asked for...what I need to do is ask for 20k and delete the first 10k, or request it from a different listing altogether.

It confused the heck out of me the first time I did key distribution. Really strange method and very easy to distribute dupe keys if you're not careful.

Axiom Verge is just the best. How it was made by one man is beyond me. I want Axiom Verge 2 so bad

 

[Valtýr]

Picked up Axiom Verge. Pretty cool.

 

[TangoAlphaLima]

Yup. They were sealed all three times. I gave up on the last one. I still have it on my shelf in my room.

I was planning to stop and pick up Axiom Verge, but now I'm not sure. I definitely want it in my Steam library if I get it on PC. I'll just end up losing the game disc some day if I don't.

 

[Thebeardofknowledge]

since reading the OP is hard:

I was on mobile and must scrolled past it but thanks for being a dick about it

An exclusive SteelBook case
Full-color instruction manual
DRM-free game disc
Soundtrack CD
Mini art print with Steam key

thanks

i appreciate it

 

[Triforce141]

I want to get a physical copy of Axiom Verge, but Gamestop shipping prices making the total cost be almost double of what the game currently is right now, I don't think so?

Use code SAVER on an order of $25 or more for free shipping.

 

[Lemstar]

remember when the developer of Axiom Verge didn't want to do a deal with LRG because they wouldn't make the print run big enough

remember when he didn't want to put his game on sale as to not devalue it

prices at GameStop that end in $.97 are clearance prices

I'm sadly happy that I'm not the only one who had that issue.

It goes on sale on Steam fairly regularly, and from what I hear it's a fantastic game.

It's so good. The soundtrack is timeless.

One guy made it all including the soundtrack, still boggles my mind.

 

[Stormhammer]

our gamestop has them, and i want axiom verge but the boxes are always dented ;~;

 

[PAULINK]

Kinda want rogue legacy, a $10 steelbook is hard to ignore.

Wasn't the first Guilty Gear made by one person? Or am I remembering it wrong.

 

[Amir0x]

First Guilty Gear is definitely made by more than one person. Hideyuki Anbe, Daisuke Ishiwatari, Takuya Moritou, Takahiro Uematsu, etc.

 

[v0rtikal]

I'm definitely picking up the physical PS4 copy of Axiom Verge when it comes out, just like I did with Shovel Knight... these current old school games are the best.

 

[neonglow]

I'm still salty that I've exchanged Axiom Verge three times from GameStop and it said the codes were used every time.

Copies of Axiom Verge, Nuclear Throne and Rogue Legacy will have invalid or blank codes. There's production issues with them where the supplied codes meant for promotional purposes were mixed into the retail batch.

 

[Luke_Wal]

I know it's been clarified countless times that these come with a physical disk, but I'm confused by the fact that it also comes with a Steam key. If my PC doesn't have a drive, can I use just the Steam key?
Sorry, this is my first time buying a physical PC game - just got my computer this week.

I believe the disc will just install it directly. The steam code will add it to your library and then you can download it.

Yeah, just plug it into Steam.

I figure there was an issue like that, but there hasn't been any fixes to it has there? I'd still really like to play Axiom Verge at some point.

 

[Lijik]

hope these are still available when i get paid at the end of the weekend, i keep meaning to pick up axiom verge and jotun.

 

[hikarutilmitt]

If I'm near one of the Gamestops this weekend that has Axiom Verge I'll nab it. I have the game on PS4 already but having a Steam copy (maybe!) and the soundtrack with a steelbook are pretty nice for $10.

Also I'll open it right then and there and redeem the code to see if it works. If it doesn't, ehhhhhhhhhhh I'll probably still just keep it since the game isn't the most important part for me. Sucks people have gotten duped codes already though.

 

[MaDKaT]

Wow, that is awesome. Very tempting but none of my PC's have a disc drive.


Already have the games on Steam. Just love steelbooks.

 

[Luke_Wal]

I just placed an in store pickup order for Axiom (they called me immediately to ask when I would pick it up, which was weird). What is the course of action if I get a duplicate code? Is it worth checking it in store?

 

[SmokedMeat]

Yup. They were sealed all three times. I gave up on the last one. I still have it on my shelf in my room.

Did it appear factory sealed or were they some shrink wrap job?

Edit: Axiom Verge is very tempting since that's the same price as a Steam sale. Would be neat to have.

 

[Velikost]

lmao what? 3 of the best titles have invalid Steam codes?

I bought Axiom Verge a couple days ago, but if there's no way to get a valid Steam code that shit might be going back

 

[The Broken Ska Record]

Did it appear factory sealed or were they some shrink wrap job?

I mean, it wasn't high quality sealing, but it wasn't a backroom wrap job.

 

[rackham]

PS4 or PC only?

 

[SinCityAssassin]

PS4 or PC only?

Gametrust does PC physical releases.

 

[Thebeardofknowledge]

Fuck it

Ordered all 10

 

[Sparrowhawk]

Wait, these come with Steam keys? Pretty good deal on a lot of these, if so.

How will you redeem it in the store? Don't you need the Steam desktop client to do that?
