Code still works folks, get a game while it's hot.
Holy shit infinite games
So I guess you can't activate the product keys on steam? Cause I tried them and it just said invalid product code
Oh god the store is so slow but the code works when using [url]http://store.origin.com/?ipr=ty[/url] Got Mirrors edge. Is it worth it to make a billion bogus accounts to get loads of games and store the user IDs on like a notepad?
I see this as an Origin store was replacing their windows, but broke them and said "fuck it" and left. So everyone is looting the place and taking everything.
I think they just fixed it, I just tried to buy another free game and it said invalid.
Got 2142, Sims 2 DD, BF2, and Spore. All these games I owned but lost the disc/cd key to. [editline]13th October 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=Jacam12SUX;38021637]I think they just fixed it, I just tried to buy another free game and it said invalid.[/QUOTE] Works for one account only.
Payment authorization failed, i get this no matter what, even gave login details to a friend who got games for himself...he got the same message... Could it be that EA is branding accounts :v: ...it's probably cause i got Burnout Paradise for free with similiar bug a year or so ago...
[QUOTE=Jacam12SUX;38021637]I think they just fixed it, I just tried to buy another free game and it said invalid.[/QUOTE] Yeah, made a new account, it says, 'Thanks your order has been whatever' and the game doesn't appear.

So does it only work with one item, or if I have multiple items in my cart and enter the code, will everything go to $0.00? And to get multiple games, do I need to create multiple accounts?
[QUOTE=SPESSMEHREN;38021692]So does it only work with one item, or if I have multiple items in my cart and enter the code, will everything go to $0.00?[/QUOTE] Must be one game only, unless the total applies to 19.99 it will only discount to a lower price.

Do i need to enter my details to buy anything? If not i could get someone to make an account for me i suppose, unless that wouldn't work for some reason.
This is the only reason I will ever use Origin besides Sim City and Sims 3. Thanks EA for the royal fuck up!
[QUOTE=nightlord;38021712]Do i need to enter my details to buy anything? If not i could get someone to make an account for me i suppose.[/QUOTE] For me in the US I didn't have to put in payment info, just address. I would fake an address each time. They could track alts through payment address.
[QUOTE=Rocko's;38021683]Make sure you get a game from the list on the previous page, and that it's 19.99 or less.[/QUOTE] Only games i tried were NFS HP and DA Origins... Tried [url]http://store.origin.com/?ipr=ty[/url], tor, hideipvpn, chrome proxy addon (i'm from EU) on different browsers, chrome, firefox, IE, also incognito modes, always the same...

I think the entire origin store shit itself. It won't load anything for me anymore. [editline]13th October 2012[/editline] As soon as I posted that it started working again.
Oh man, Kane's Wrath doesn't work.
[QUOTE=Mike42012;38021732]You can forge your details.[/QUOTE] I can't even get on the US site it seems.
Oh fuck I'm getting invalid promo codes on Com3: Tib wars.
Just got Battlefield 2 Complete. Is there a list anywhere that shows games from origin you can activate on steam?
[QUOTE=nightlord;38021759]I can't even get on the US site it seems.[/QUOTE] I'm on right now, it's very slow.
[QUOTE=Mike42012;38021774]I'm on right now, it's very slow.[/QUOTE] I'm in the UK, it just redirects me to the UK site and i can't see a way to change it. The arrow with the flag does nothing.

[editline]13th October 2012[/editline] Also remove command and conquer 3 from the list, it doesn't work sadly. Tried with two new accounts. Got RA3 though.
Got Mirror's Edge Pure Time Trials Map Pack. All I wanted.
Doesn't seem to reduce the price of Sims 3 Pets.
[QUOTE=Derpmonster;38021812]Doesn't seem to reduce the price of Sims 3 Pets.[/QUOTE] Not a valid game for this code, seems to work for game like Sims 3, Medal of Honor, and before them.
