Going by Twitter the Bethesda deal was a pricing error.

But if you managed to get your order in they will honor the price.

I managed to get a Purchase order even though I never paid

I can't see anything on their twitter that says it's an error. Saying that, they are advertising a load of deals on their twitter and this isn't one so it may be an error. Someone on reddit said they seen New Years deal or something so it's possible it was released early.

I've just got through the paypal stage. Got the email confirming payment was taken too. Hopefully that's it sorted, because I can't get back onto the site

Just go on to reddit and tell them to stop for 5 minutes. You'll then buy 10,000 copies and sell them on at cost price. Getting the €260,000 will probably be the easy bit.

At least someone is having some joy I suppose.

Email from paypal or gamersgate. If it's paypal then you're sorted. If it's gamersgate then maybe not. Loads of people have received emails from them without entering paypal details.

Paypal thankfully.

Same as myself.

To be honest I only really want Dishonored. But all those other Games are just to good of bonuses to pass up.

I presume you can pick and choose what you want to download?

Yes. You buy the bundle and you get individual codes for each game so you can give some away if you want.

Can't get into gamers gate at all

You don't need to re-download them. You can copy/paste the game folder contents to the same directory on the other drive. Then 'delete local content' for the game in Steam and click the 'Install' button again. It will find the files in the new folder and be ready to play in 10 seconds.

Thanks but I had steam installed on my 128GB SSD previously (where space is at a premium) so I usually only DL one or two at a time.

You should get splinter cell chaos theory at 2.50 its too good to miss if your not able to run hi spec

Intel HD 4000 is not as slow as you think.

The likes of Skyrim can be played at medium settings around 30fps. The only games it really struggles on is Battlefield 3 and Assassin's Creed 3. Everything else should be playable on medium-low settings and at a decent resolution too.

Don't think it's been on a normal/flash sale yet.

Wow Sims 3 is on a flash sale for 66% off. Ive never even seen it on sale before. It still sells for like 30-40 quid in shops.

Because it sells exceptionally well. The expansion plus Showtime seems like a good deal.

Do stuff on "flash deals" normally end up going cheaper on "daily deals" later on in the sale?

Came across this great website that runs a diagnostic of your computer and checks it against the system requirements of games, if anyone is interested?

Might come in useful for anyone like me, who isn't sure what games will run on their machine.

ronkmonster

Just logged onto gamersgate and I've got the games but they have ran out some of the keys

Do you think it would run arma 2 CO?

Short answer, no.

Chances are most of the stuff on flash sales won't appear on daily deals anyway.

In the summer sale they were repeated as daily sales a lot(if not always)
