For this sale there will be two options for your DL purchase.

They managed to get steam redeemable keys and non steam versions. So now you have the option to get a steam version of a game or a drm free(or as close to no drm as possible depending on the game). When the sale goes there will be multiple links for some games since there will be options to go with steam or non steam. For example Max Payne 3 and Bioshock 1/2 aren't steamworks but you have the option of getting a steam key or going non steam.

[B]Also when setting up your US address use something like a hotel in Delaware and you wont get charged tax, there are other states but this is the one I use [/B][URL]http://doubletree3.hilton.com/en/about/locations/index.html[/URL]

I'm from the UK and have bought Borderlands GOTY so far and it activated fine on steam, just make sure you use a US address.

I used the one above and chose one of their hotels in Delaware

[Naofa]

i bought the xcom pack earlier

[Watevaman]

Probably gonna pick up MP3, Darkness 2, and Black Ops, but I was wondering if Black Ops has been cheaper than $20 in any sales? I don't know if I should wait out for a Steam sale to see if they put it cheaper.

[Take_Opal]

Bought Max Payne 3 and accidentally bought the Amazon download one. I'm getting it sorted out to have them hook me up with a steam one instead.

[Saza]

might pick up that bioshock thing

[LordMoldyButt]

Bought X-Com, Vice City (redeemable on Steam), San Andreas (redeemable on Steam), and LA Noire (redeemable on Steam)

[arvarkdb]

Thanks for the heads up. Been waiting for Max Payne to go on sale.

[Dr Bob]

There's something wrong with that Hilton link, would you mind fixing it?

[postmanX3]

Anyone know if the Bioshock pack really includes SecuROM? The Steam releases don't use SecuROM, so I'm hoping that's just a mistake or something...

Anyways I already bought the X-COM pack and Syndicate. Yay spending money.

[sir whoopsalot]

Shame I don't have any means of buying on Amazon, MP3's mighty tempting for that price.

[postmanX3]

agh holy shit, X-COM

i've been watching a bunch of let's plays of it lately and generally the first few missions have like 2 or 3 aliens, total. i start playing and my first mission has 8 fucking aliens. 8. i can't believe i managed that without losing anybody.

[Take_Opal]

I have an extra Max Payne 3 Amazon key if anyone wants to strike a trade.

Can i have it ?

[editline]1st July 2012[/editline]

Pretty please with icing on top!

[LordMoldyButt]

After buying LA Noire, my bank called for "suspicious" activity.

[bobsynergy]

Buy Spec Ops: The Line people, if you don't you hate games with an amazing story

I really want to, but is it certain that the PC Download key for it can be activated on Steam?

I remember last year around this time someone told me that for the Amazon Summer Sale then, The Saboteur ended up not redeeming itself on Steam, so I just want to be certain.

[editline]1st July 2012[/editline]

Oh, looks like it's a Steamworks title. Looks like a purchase to me.

Fixed hopefully :smile:

[total_noob]

Nice one, just got victoria 2 :D in the paradox bundles.

[E Quantifier]

Bioshock 1/2 for 7.50, I like it.

[Feuver]

[QUOTE=Take_Opal;36577138]if you have something to trade[/QUOTE]

I got nuclear Dawn and Bit.Trip.Runner :v:

[neosloth]

[QUOTE=Take_Opal;36577138]if you have something to trade[/QUOTE]
I have the first Red Orchestra

[Bentham]

Thinking about picking up Borderlands. Should I?

[editline]1st July 2012[/editline]

Also when is the Steam summer sale?

[postmanX3]

Anyone here play Syndicate? I need co-op buddies.

[Staneh]

At Max Payne 3 it says: "Currently, this item is available only to customers located in the United States and who have a U.S. billing address."

I'm in the Netherlands, can I still buy this?

Yes and nobody knows.

I bought CKII for the aSoIaF mod and it is incompatible with the latest patch.:suicide:

[neosloth]

Do we have to post this in every amazon.com sales thread?

[B]YOU CAN USE A FAKE US ADDRESS AND IT WORKS JUST FINE[/B]

I just use [url]http://www.fakenamegenerator.com/[/url]

[Meller Yeller]

Are there going to be different sales every day?

None of these are really what I'm looking for.

[paindoc]

I think the sale might be tomorrow. My specials and tabs keep glitching/lagging, and that also happens whenever a sale is going on. There have also been reports of stuff like [URL="http://i.imgur.com/ruOe9.png"]this[/URL] (look at the specials and stuff under $5). Not definite proof, but possible evidence nevertheless
