[QUOTE=Pridit;38481527]I managed to get several problems ranging from poor framerate to bad controls. Not sure why we've had a completely different experience, what are your system specs?[/QUOTE]
Runs flawless for me.
Now the question is, AC3 Steam download from Amazon USA, or this for £8.50 extra (non-steam) :v:

Would anyone mind getting this deal and getting prototype 2 for me? longshot but i spent my spare 10$ on the other deal and could give you metro 2033 for it, if that seems remotely worth it at all
So if I already have a game in an amazon bundle on steam, and I buy the bundle, does it give me an extra copy? I don't know how amazon works.

You get steam keys. You don't get an extra copy in your giftable inventory, but you could give the key away to someone.

Is it like, one key activates several games, or is it one key per game?

I got three seperate keys for the prototype pack, so I am sure that you get seperate keys for each game with the other packs.
Great, you have to enter a credit card to prove you live in the US now. Anybody know a way around that?

Some people said try using an american address for like the billing address or something. Maybe try that?

[QUOTE=Cushie;38487245][B]You can get this from the UK, read on:[/B]
1. Go to [url]http://www.realusaaddress.com/[/url] and generate a US address, add it to your profile on Amazon then use that as your billing address.
2. Order as normal.
I just did this from the UK and it worked fine. Apparently they only care if your address is set to a US one.[/QUOTE]
I just bought it earlier using my UK debit card, with a US billing address.

No, I mean when you try to buy it, a window pops up asking for a credit or debit card number, with no other forms of payment available. This sucks because I only have those gift cards at my disposal.

I live in the US, I just don't have a credit card.

Pretty sure if you have a visa gift card it will work.

I am pretty sure 7-11s have em.
Huh, it seems it just uses the credit card as an authenticator, so I was able to use an empty visa gift card from months ago for that. Odd that you can't just outright use retail amazon gift cards, but whatever works, I guess.
Is it possible to pay this with a paypal?
Think this will work for AC3 then? :v:
When do GAME start shipping out pre-orders? I don't want to buy this, then find out I've got another AC3 coming. Or, I don't want to find I buy this, cancel my GAME one, Amazon cancels my digital one and there's no more Join or Die editions, madness /:v:\
A spare Prototype 2 key would be hella dope! I dont even need the DLC, only the game! :>
Bah, Amazon keeps nitpicking even with US address.
Oh well.
Some kind German on the Steam forums took a loss and gifted me AC3 Standard Edition for £32. 50p more than what I could have got from Amazon USA, but at least it's guaranteed in my library (in case Amazon reject my payment).

My order went through some extra checking thing to prevent misuse, after 30mins I got the game. I set my billing address to some Shopping mall in Fairbanks Alaska (I'm finnish).
It seems that they can't prevent country restriction exploiting.
I'm on the very edge of buying that THQ mega pack. I already played the hell of stalker and red faction Guerrilla on consolle, and from the Square-Enix megapack I bought one month ago I just played Deus ex+ dlc of all the games that were in.
But I really want to check out that WH40'000 Space Marine.. uuh
