You don't even need to play them - opening the game to the main menu, and alt-tabbing back to Windows is enough. Once Steam views the game as "running" you'll get any cards you're entitled to.

Hmm, I tried that with FTL but it didn't work for me.
I'll try another game and see.

Also edited while you were editing lol.

When did you try? There was a bug with games last week (or earlier this week) where cards weren't being dropped for a lot of folks who hadn't participated in the STC beta.

Got the "Something went wrong, this transaction was cancelles" error earlier buying Scribblenauts and bulletstorm. Still got the "Thanks for your purchase" email and nearly finished downloading them both now. Must see if my account was debited...

Which one are you looking to get? Regular counter strike at 4.99 or CS Go at 4.75? I'd be willing to try get it and gift it to you. You could get me System Shock 2 before the 22nd then as its a fiver. Now, I'll be on a visa debit, so I can't guarantee it'll work till I try it, but figured I'd post/ask before trying.

Was trying to get the bundle at 7.49 thanks for the offer anyways but if all fails I will just have to accept that I should be studying for the repeats instead of playing Counter Strike so maybe it will be a good thing that way haha... Thanks alot anyways

Pushtrak

Ok, cool. The offer stands though, if you change your mind in the limited window left.

I have been having the same Visa Debit problem when trying to purchase something, so I switched my payment method to PayPal (which is linked to my Visa Debit card) and it worked straight away. Maybe you could try giving that a go?

Asmodean

I have moneybookers linked and its being all pissy with that too. I just want to play scribblenauts goddamnit. I'm presuming that even though its in my basket now, when it goes off sale I'll be paying the usual price?

Dont have a paypal account set up with this card though?

Hmm, you could try and set it up now, doesn't take very long iirc. I know the card eventually has to be verified with PayPal, but maybe you could still purchase games with it while it waits to be verified? Not sure about it, but it might worth a shot?

It is currently 75% off in the Daily Deal, so once that ends I reckon it will revert back to a more moderate discount like 50% or 33% off.

WarZoneBrother

Tried with just a temporary paypal thing or something and still didn't work... Ohh well

You are in for a treat. You really have to check out all the Origin stories. You probably would have, but it's best to say it just in case.

Yeah man I played it a few years back on the ps3 and loved it but I haven't played any of the dlc yet so I'm really looking forward to getting stuck back into it, pity the downloads 25gb and my internet is sh1t slow should be ready to play around Tuesday or Wednesday at the speed its going :pac:

ShadowHearth

well, just going to wait and see the falsh deals and off to bed

Pushtrak

Not all the DLC is quality, but the expansion Awakening is something special. I think I'd go as far as to say the story is better than in the main game, and I really dug the main game.
