Its coming up near the end of year and as we know this is when Game dev's go crazy releasing their Game's. There's pretty much a must-have game coming out every month, sometimes 2 or 3 at a time.
I'm a student in my 2nd year of a Physics Masters. I've always loved PC gaming since but with various student fees (including a £3000 tuition fee...) its pretty hard to keep up with new release games.
A friend of mine recently twittered me a youtube video to help support my gaming hobbie, told me that he uses this same method to get Games from Steam. Using this method the games are actually bought for you (by marketing companies) and then gifted to you all through Steam.

Ok so after reading the provided guide i thought i'll test it out with something small - a $5 game like Civlization III. After an hour or using the site i made the request fot he game. The site takes time to process as there are others ordering games so assuming you get put into queue. But a couple of days later i received an email from Steam store saying that i had a gift awaiting me.
Now i would have taken a screenshot of this but at the time i didn't think it would work lol.
But since then i've used the site more and been gifted other games too.
Mass Effect 2

If you think this is photoshoped or something i'll include the Gift Link that you see in the picture and i'll paste it here:

It's used of course but it shows that it was valid.
Mafia 2

I've got both these games all in a month from casual use of this site (maybe 1 hour use a day). It's not instant free game, but with patience and casual use this is pretty effective way of gettin Free games... Pretty much only way unless you do something illegal.
Now this thread isn't intended for those who can easily go by spending $60 two or three times a month for a new release game. There are MANY people who have got their money prioritised for other things than games that they really want.
In my case i'm a student, so alot of my money goes towards tuition fees. Having this on the side is perfect for my Gaming needs, and it does work. Read up on the guide in the video, it answerered alot of questions that i had at the start.
Prize Rebel. We kinda had a few threads on this in GD a few months back.

Let me guess, you have to do a survey?
OP, are you an idiot?

But of course. I just use Fiverr and have multiple jobs I do. 50$ Every 2 weeks for posting on Craigslist plus other side jobs keeps my gaming needs filled.
US only, USA only, UK only. :wtc:
Oh yeah, Prizerebel, how great.

Better idea to just get a temp part time job over the holidays or in your spare time during the term and save up money. That way you'll have some cash if you see a game you really want on a good offer or something - I'm a student in the UK too and I'm rather well off for a student (always been in credit) but I still tend not to buy games at full price out of habit unless I know they are really going to be worth it. I pick up a lot in the Steam sales :)
