Green Man Gaming Currently Offering 25% All Games for Labor Day

Edit: 25% OFF summbitch.

Site: Green Man Gaming.

Just use the code on the front page to get your games for cheaper.

For those that don't know, many of the games they sell are actually Steam Activation Codes, so buying it from GMG still gets you the game on Steam. I just picked up Sleeping Dogs for $37.50 and it activated perfectly. (This is not guaranteed for all games, check it out before you buy. If it says "Steam Third-Party DRM," though you should be good).

Location: I have no idea if this is U.S. residents only, sorry.

I just did the same, $33.75... can't beat that price.

Unless you wait a year after release and then get it during one of Steam's Big Sales. That's what I have done for 50-75% of my steam library.

That's just me though as I have bought multiple games before at full price just for them to sit forgotten for months because I didn't have time for them. I think I'll go play Amnesia now since the sequel is coming out soon...

November 2013 is a long way away.

You'll hear the spoilers, the leaderboards will be as trumped as possible, you'll be pressed to find as many people to discuss the awesome moments of the game with. Most importantly the money you fund a game with via preorder funds quality future titles.

Borderlands 2 for 37.5 USD

Hm. HMMMMMM... what say you, r/games?

rhapsodicink•

I say I have that and Hitman preordered form there now.

TehFence•

I say that's bullshit, because it's 37,50€ as well.

As a word of warning, GMG's Capsule client has extremely strict DRM that locks you out of games if you don't authenticate them online every 3 days. However, they have tionnes of Steam keys and other games that activate on other clients (or on their own, like Guild Wars 2) and pretty much always have at least 20% off vouchers going on.

Decoyrobot•

Yup for those that way inclined, same applies for EA games, they all activate on Origin.

Would it be safe to assume that Dishonoured/Borderlands 2 would be steam activate-able?

It should say so on the game's page but yeah, I know Borderlands is and I am 99.99% sure Dishonoured is too.

It says right on the page for the game on GMG: "Steam account required"

Yep they'll be Steam keys

GMG does not region lock their offers anyway.

1
linearcoreOP•

GMG may not, but how does that work if you get a Steam code? Are those actually region-coded or no?

1
Podgietaru•

No, I've bought russian copies of games for cheap that had steam keys. I've heard that if you do this a lot steam will recognise it and lock your account, but I think that's just for retail copies.

Damn, wish I had some cash for this.

God, I've been playing Darksiders 2 and Guild Wars 2, on top of Dota 2 on the side. Why does Sleeping Dogs have to taunt me like so.

GMG is really awesome.

I have only bought steam-activating games on there so I get the best of both worlds. Great prices and customer service from GMG and the ability to run my games on steam like I want without having to pay full price or deal with Steam's terrible customer service.

"Steam's terrible customer service" - What? I've only ever had great experiences with them.

And I've only had terrible experiences with them.

Does Witcher 2 come with a steam key?
