Bwaah? How do you set that up? I’ve tried it in the past but I couldn’t get it working.

Scotch_Lufkin · 2013-08-30T08:08:23.000Z

Yeah, whoa, I’d love to know how to do that myself!

Greenman Gaming has a 25% off code that can be used with many new games, including Skull Girls, Guardians of Middle Earth, The Bureau, Lost Planet 3, EU4, Ace Patrol, and more!

Just reporting what the internets say. I personally don’t play PC games in local coop. That’s what consoles are for

You lot may already have them but we are doing “Freedom Friday” at Desura every week :)

Free games being featured. This weeks Battle for Wesnoth, Sloth Patrol, Festival & Vega Strike. Worth a look if they have missed your radar before now.

This reminds me to give Vega Strike a try.

Hm, I just noticed that GMG now sells X Rebirth. It might not be a “selected title” for the current voucher, but it’s probably worth checking for future vouchers.

Thought Wesnoth was always free.

Civ 5 Brave New World is half off, $15-

Thanks for the heads-up!

Today only on GameFly: Tomb Raider for 75% off plus coupon code GFDAUG20 = $9.99 (Steam required).

Is this even lower than the Steam Summer Sale?

I took it as “games which are always free are being featured.”

I believe so. I picked it up at Amazon with a coupon during the Steam Summer Sale for $10.62, which I think was the best deal.

Yup, lower than Summer Sale. You’d do yourself a disservice for not playing what is probably a GoTY for many here!

Ender · 2013-08-31T15:00:14.000Z

You may get mixed mileage out of this but…
The Fry’s in Fremont at Automall is selling Mists of Pandaria Collector’s Edition for 29.99 and the regular for 39.99. Other Fry’s may also have that on their shelves as it was a proper tag and everything. I was tempted to buy them all an resell, instead I bought one and decided to see what has gone on in WoW since WOTLK…

I’m tempted, but since I don’t have time to play it right now, I’m going to follow my new rule and wait to buy it until I actually have a chance to play it. Besides, it might come out on Xbox One or PS4 by then as a port. My PC is really dicey these days when it comes to graphically impressive games. Stupid video card.

habibi · 2013-08-31T18:00:00.000Z

I thought you have already played Tomb Raider, Rockman. In a few posts you shared how good the bow was. I guess you want a PC copy but why would you since there’s not enough time. Play a new game instead :)

I played a free rental. Sometimes Redbox sends out codes that are only good for that day. It happened to be the day Tomb Raider was coming out, so I checked it out for that day and the next day and returned it. Enough to give me a good feel for the excellent mechanics, but not really far enough to know too much more about the game. I only got past that one town with the stealth sequence where you’re getting past all those mercenary guards.

habibi · 2013-09-01T00:24:20.000Z

Yikes! What are you waiting for? Drop anything you are playing at the moment and go play Tomb Raider!!!

Xbox games for gold is now Magic 2013. Something I might actually play (although I didn’t buy it because of the dumb way they did pay-for-sealed slots thing)
