What if they start handing out... TF2 hats and DOTA 2 skins with preorders?

What then? HOW CAN ORIGIN COUNTER?!

 

[erpg]

20$ off from the Greenman Gaming is enough to make me feel good about missing 8 TF2 items, right?

Depends on how much you play TF2. As someone who plays TF2 for an hour or so every night, I'm glad I didn't do GMG this morning like I was debating.

 

[Flunkie]

Hey, Red Orchestra hats worked with the GMG preorder, maybe we can hope..

I guess we'll see soon. The keys should be out any day now.

 

[hamchan]

Goddamn it 8 items is nuts. Still feel good about GMG purchase though.

 

[Data West]

Glad I got paid today

DoW 1 Gold + Crusade
DoW 2 Retribution
Pre-order Deus Ex
Pre-order Space Marine

I can't remember the last retail game that I bought.

 

[Zerokku]

I can't remember the last retail game that I bought.

For PC? Mine was WoW: Cataclysm.

What a waste of money. Didn't even hit 85 before I got bored of that game again.

 

[Belfast]

Just pre-ordered, feels good.

I know, right? Well, I was going to play Deus Ex anyway.

Some of the weapons do have mods, too. They aren't just cosmetic.

 

[hamchan]

Mine was also Cataclysm. Only retail games I buy now are Blizzard games and Steamworks titles.

 

[Stallion Free]

Swag swag.

 

[StuBurns]

SC2 is the only thing in recent years I've bought a box of. And the only thing I have outside of Steam actually.

I barely played it, but I'll get back to it in time.

GOD FUCKING DAMMIT

fucking pre-ordered elsewhere FUCKFUCKFUJCUUCK[/QUOTE]

Too little too late Valve, everybody bought the game from GMG for 28bucks.

 

[Semblance]

I canceled my Amazon order for Deus Ex and purchased it off Steam instead. All for some TF2 items. I give no fucks.

(Gone.)

 

[Salsa]

Just pre-ordered, feels good.

die die die

 

[inky]

wow, people really love them hats. Guess I needs to start playing TF2 soon...

 

[Data West]

die die die

what a shame

 

[Stallion Free]

die die die

Well I am the one with the new weapons...

 

[jim-jam bongs]

Hey Salsa, I don't even play TF2 any more but I preordered just for the goodies. Just a heads up.

Does anyone want the first Deus Ex? I have a giftable copy.

Me, please.

 

[Semblance]

Me, please.

Shit, sorry. Someone just PM'd me right before.

So the GMG keys will be out in soon? Or did you mean when the game releases?

 

[Andiie]

It was $5 yesterday dude. It goes on sale pretty often, I'd wait.

wtf? was it not on sale in Aus?
damn, I check everyday for sales and didn't see it

 

[RoaringHawk]

Already craftable!

Got a Machina #390!

 

[The_Player]

The items are also available separately in the Mann Co. Store and through items drops and crafting.

Oh, don't want to buy this crap anymore. Now, onto idle!

 

[Dog Problems]

Sexy Spy helmet.

 

[TouchMyBox]

I thought TF2 item guidelines called for staying within the 1950s atheistic.

 

[Flunkie]

GMG keys are supposed to be out before it's released.

NO >_<;

 

[The Broken Ska Record]

Oh cool. I hadn't bought, or pre-ordered, anything from GMG before so I didn't know how it worked. I'm glad that I can pre-load for Tuesday.

 

[coopolon]

This is actually going to be the first game I ever preload on Steam assuming GMG really releases the codes early. Pretty excited about that.

 

[mrgone]

GOD FUCKING DAMMIT

I'm not too sure why they're putting this preorder stuff up just a few days before the game releases. It'll all be craftable/findable, but getting anything you want in TF2 is like

 

[Weenerz]

Not afraid to admit I bought the game specifically for the TF2 items. Fuck yes.

 

[Foliorum Viridum]

I wish I was into TF2. They give so much away in pre-orders and I get to benefit from none of it :

 

[Ionic]

Hey, since you aren't in to TF2 you can just trade away all the preorder items for actual money or Steam games.

 

[The Broken Ska Record]

Ditto. Then again, you could always trade the stuff that's tied to your account.

 

[jim-jam bongs]

Not afraid to admit I bought the game specifically for the TF2 items. Fuck yes.

I was going to import it to save a bit of money but it did push me over the edge into getting it directly from Steam.

Hats are free games now mang

 

[Data West]

How exactly do you do that, anyhow?

 

[Foliorum Viridum]

That's true, I don't have much of value, I don't think though:

If I am sitting on a gold mine, I'll happily take all of your games from you. >_>

 

[Exuro]

I'll trade you a copy of Sanctum for some stuff.

 

[Barack Lesnar]

No regrets here!
$28 >> $45 + TF2 items

 

[plc268]

Same. I like TF2, and I do like hats, but not enough to pay $17 more for it.

 

[hylian_pirate]

Preordered from GMG. Getting the code on the 23rd and the game launches on the 26th in my region. I'll get the TF2 items right?

 

[jaundicejuice]

I pre-ordered Space Marine ages ago, downloading the demo, I'll post my impressions once I've played it.

 

[Sutton Dagger]

So if I used a wired 360 controller for a multiplayer game, would I also be able to use the wired headset as well for communication?

 

[Symphonic]

And then I owned Deus Ex.

I believe that depends on GFW support. Not entirely sure though

 

[Flunkie]

Well, the items in-store are $19.99 in the bundle package in the Mann Co. Store.

 

[jaundicejuice]

Are those Deus Ex items simply re-skins or do the have an actual increasingly stupid affect on gameplay?
