Cheapskate Gaming Thread - Games

[IMG]http://puu.sh/4TRjS.png[/IMG] I think Facepunch is in dire need of some sort of thread for gaming offers and things, so I thought I'd create one. Hopefully I'll keep this list updated in due time. If you're looking for a cheap gaming kick then this might be useful for you. [B] Offer Aggregation Sites [/B][URL="http://www.hotukdeals.com/search?action=search&keywords=pc&category=19&type=1&date_range=7&sort_type=submitted&online_only=false"]HotUKDeals[/URL] - Community based deal website. Sometimes have some decent offers here. Sometimes not. [URL="http://savvygamer.co.uk/"]SavvyGamer.co.uk[/URL] - Website run by one guy, Lewie Procter. Has been going for quite a while now and very regularly has decent offers. [URL="http://isthereanydeal.com/"]IsThereAnyDeal?[/URL] - Quite a nice website. You can import your Steam wishlist or just add games and they'll email you when there's a sale on multiple websites. [URL="http://steamdb.info/sales/?displayOnly=Game&cc=uk"]SteamDB Sales Tracker[/URL] - Tracks sales automatically on Steam. [URL="http://www.steamgamesales.com/"]SteamGameSales[/URL] - Pretty similar to the SteamDB version. Has some other sites too though. Run by the same people that run the raffle SteamGifts.com site. [URL="http://www.allkeyshop.com/blog/"]AllKeyShop [/URL]- Aggregates deals from the various 'key sites'. [B]Use with caution[/B] [URL="http://www.dlcompare.com/"]DLCompare [/URL]- Same as AllKeyShop pretty much.[B]Use with caution.[/B] [URL="http://www.ozbargain.com.au/cat/gaming"]OZbargain [/URL]- Australian gaming deals site. Probably works for US/UK people too. [URL="http://slickdeals.net/deals/games/"]SlickDeals[/URL] - Deal community/aggregation site. American version of HUKD. [B]Key Sites [/B](These are a bit dodgy at times, but I've had good experiences with some. [B]Make sure to check reviews first and if it seems to good to be true, it probably isn't[/B]) [URL="http://www.kinguin.net/"]Kinguin[/URL] - I've used this multiple times and had good experiences. I once bought a nuff key for DNF but I got my money back due to their protection policy. They also have some kind of reward system. [B]Use with caution[/B] [URL="http://www.intkeys.com"]IntKeys[/URL] - I've heard good things about this site. Haven't used it myself. [B]Use with caution[/B]. [URL="http://www.g2play.net/store/"]G2Play.net[/URL] - Good reviews from a Facepunch user. [B]Use with caution. [/B][URL="http://www.gamingdragons.com/en"]GamingDragons[/URL] - Heard good reviews from a Facepunch user. [B]Use with caution.[/B] [URL="http://www.cjs-cdkeys.com/"]CJ's CD Keys[/URL] - I've heard mixed reviews about these guys, but they've been around for a while so it should be alright. [B]Use with caution[/B]. [URL="http://play-sc.com/home.php"]Play-SC[/URL] - Heard good things about this site. [B]Use with caution[/B]. [URL="http://www.direct2play.com/"]Direct2Play [/URL]- Heard good things about this site too. [B]Use with caution.[/B] [URL="http://www.shopto.net/product/search/platform/download"]ShopTo [/URL]- This is the download section from a legit retailer I've used multiple times with excellent service (First class free delivery). [URL="http://www.getgamesgo.com/"]GetGamesGo[/URL] - Used it once and had a good experience. I think it's a sister site to one of the big news sites. [URL="http://store.indiegala.com/index.php/"]GalaStore [/URL]- Ran by the Indie Gala team. Have used the bundles before with good experiences. [URL="http://www.greenmangaming.com/"]GreenManGaming[/URL] - Everyone should know about this site. They run their own Steam like service too. Nothing but good experiences. Check for coupons before buying first! [URL="http://calvein.github.io/humble-games/"]Humble Games[/URL] - Unofficial page for the Humble Bundle store. Shows all the games on sale (You can still buy games after the bundles) and all the bundles running. Pretty useful.[B] Bundles[/B] [URL="https://www.humblebundle.com/"]Humble Bundle[/URL] - The original 'indie bundle' site as far as I'm concerned. Nothing but awesome experiences. Money goes to charity too! (Don't forget the weekly bundle). [URL="http://www.indieroyale.com/"]IndieRoyale[/URL] - Similar to the HiB. Have a minimum 'average' price. Run by the guys behind [URL="http://www.desura.com/"]Desura[/URL]. [URL="http://www.indiegala.com/"]IndieGala [/URL]- HiB clone. Often have some obscure titles. They have a minimum and average price. Money goes to charity as well. [URL="http://www.bundlestars.com/"]BundleStars [/URL]- HiB Clone. Helps charity too. More bundles can be found using IsthereAnyDeal.

[QUOTE=Lolkork;42573829]Maybe this wont make peoples eyes bleed? [url]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/34721652/Drawings%20etc/cheapskatebanner.png[/url][/QUOTE] Heh. Thanks. I suck with the GIMP.

Lots of Simulator games on sale at GamersGate this week. Worth a look. [url]http://www.gamersgate.co.uk/games?prio=relevance&q=simulatorweek[/url]

intkeys have scammed people in the past(myself including) be wary of that.

[QUOTE=Crimor;42583728]intkeys have scammed people in the past(myself including) be wary of that.[/QUOTE] Maybe we should compile a list of untrustworthy sites not to use as well as good ones

[URL="http://www.bundlestars.com/"]Bundle Stars[/URL] has some good indie bundles from time to time. [editline]20th October 2013[/editline] [QUOTE=Crimor;42583728]intkeys have scammed people in the past(myself including) be wary of that.[/QUOTE] A friend and I ordered Borderlands 2 from Intkeys before without any problems. I guess it may be one of those sites where your mileage may vary. [URL="http://www.direct2play.com/"]Direct2Play[/URL] is another CD key site that I've heard good reports on, but as with Intkeys do some research before you order. [editline]20th October 2013[/editline] Oh my buddy and I also use [URL="http://slickdeals.net"]Slick Deals[/URL] a lot for both games and other things. It's just a site where people compile deals and coupons that they find so it's really useful if you're looking for something in particular.

Devil May Cry 4 for a Quid (About $1.60 for you Americans) on GMG (Activates on Steam). Use coupon: GMG20-IWGQX-41IS1 [url]http://www.greenmangaming.com/s/gb/en/pc/games/action/devil-may-cry-4/[/url]

[url]http://www.g2play.net/store/[/url] Been using it for years now, it has a reward system(buying stuff gets you points, can buy stuff later with those points alone). They have okay deals and I've always gotten my key in ~1 day after purchase.

[url]http://www.gamingdragons.com/en[/url] I use this and Intkeys for my key sites. Intkeys had gotten shittier, used to have quick delivery now its random. They also used to have a chat support if you needed help which was removed. I have purchased from them but there are much better sites

Thanks. Updated and updated :)
