Sorry, but no. That's not all.

Steam is also used as the download and patching mechanism. So you don't have to deal with uPlay bs when it comes to getting your game updated. :p

If you buy Child of Light through gamefly instead of steam, can you add the key to steam or do you have to add it to Uplay only? I know you need to have the Uplay client for both.

So what's the other DLC to buy for Borderlands 2 GOTY to have the full package?

The 5 Headhunter packs which are 5 Holiday Themed mini areas with boss fights and unique loot.

And the Vault Hunter Upgrade 2 which raises the level cap to a max of 72 for player characters and has enemies up to a max of 90.
 
Close but not on all.

Basketball one is more of a joke (read it somewhere on GAF).

Not sure if I should put a spoiler list of the games if someone wants to know before applying.

REPOST 45 minutes left


Yep. It's my birthday and I want to share some leftover games I had with you guys. It may not be much, but I hope some people still want to get some FEAR or Batman. :) Also I didn't include the Lurker restriction, because these threads move so fast during sale. Thank you for this great community. I also hid a steamgifts giveaway link in Email tags in this post. It's for 5 copies of Lara Croft & the Guardian of Light with required contribution of 30.01 on steamgifts (that's bundle games and at least one non bundle game given away). Good Luck :)

Lara Croft Link

What happened to this givaway?

Either there was a lot of unclaimed keys or ModBot didn't update the claimed winners yet?

Already spent 2x as much as I had wanted to, have a huge backlog and yet Age of Wonders 3 and MGS Rising are currently sitting in my cart. Damn you Gaben.

I think I will wait for winter on those 2.

An crazy bad crime has been committed. Someone killed the Bad Rats. Although annoying, no one deserves to die at the hands of a 'vigilante'. There are currently 3 suspects. You're the chief detective and it's up to you to pick who you think is suspect. Good luck.



3 different games. All hinted at by the title. I think all the games are pretty good. Good luck guys. I would have liked to do a big giveaway like some others in here but this is the best I have right now! If anything is messed up, let me know. Going to bed soon so I'll sort out any issues tomorrow evening (UK time).


the basketball one has to be marlow briggs....

edit: beaten like lebron

Guesses aren't too bad!

I'm heading off now so will be interesting to see who gets all 3. I'll try repost before it ends but not sure if I'll be awake.

If not, feel free to repost it on my behalf guys.

Thank you. There is way too much shit that doesn't come in the goty edition.
 
It seems very likely. The dev is trying to get it out this year but it might slip to the next.



What does 4x even mean? I know it's a genre but why is it called 4x?

4X is a genre of strategy-based video and board games in which players control an empire and "eXplore, eXpand, eXploit, and eXterminate". The term was first coined by Alan Emrich in his September 1993 preview of Master of Orion for Computer Gaming World. Since then, others have adopted the term to describe games of similar scope and design.

4X games are noted for their deep, complex gameplay. Emphasis is placed upon economic and technological development, as well as a range of non-military routes to supremacy. Games can take a long time to complete since the amount of micromanagement needed to sustain an empire scales as the empire grows. 4X games are sometimes criticized for becoming tedious for these reasons, and several games have attempted to address these concerns by limiting micromanagement with varying degrees of success.

If you buy Child of Light through gamefly instead of steam, can you add the key to steam or do you have to add it to Uplay only? I know you need to have the Uplay client for both.

What will tell you is the product page -- check for the DRM type -- if it says Steam, it's a steam key and will activate as such in the steam client (which will download/patch/manage your dlc for you) if it says uPlay, it activates directly on uPlay and steam is involved in no way.
