The $5 coupons expire when the next one is added to your account. If you care about using them, you’ll want to do it within a couple months of getting it.

Just one of the many ways Gamefly screws people. Blarg!

This is a bit convoluted, but you can get the Sims 3 for only $25 at Microcenter, so if you’re planning on getting the game anyway, and have a Microcenter nearby, you might want to get there and reserve a copy this weekend.

Here’s the email, which you might print out before going there. Basically, if you reserve the game this weekend (which will cost you $5), then you can pay an additional $20 when the game comes out.

Yeah, I tend to work on a six month cycle, since old coupons expire as new ones show up. I just use 'em both that day and get $10 off something.

As below i have a 50% off Demigod Voucher. Anyone want it please PM me, but ONLY if your going to buy the game.

Greetings Demigod user!

As you know, Demigod is a real-time action strategy game that incorporates tactical combat with role playing elements. When played on-line, it is best played with groups of people as opposed to 1 on 1 as seen in many other strategy games.

Since Demigod’s launch late last month, we have been working with developer Gas Powered Games to enhance the game. We have a lot of exciting updates in the works. One of the things we have been particularly concentrating on is improving the game’s multiplayer connectivity.

We have been gradually improving the Demigod network connectivity for those who enjoy playing on-line with other people. On Thursday, May 21st, we released an update that introduced our own network of servers to host the connection for those users who have had a hard time getting connected to other players online.

As a token of our appreciation to our customers who have waited patiently while we’ve addressed the on-line multiplayer difficulties, we present you with this 50% off coupon on purchasing a second copy of the digital version of Demigod for your friends or family. This will only be valid until early next week so this would be a good time to use it.

In addition, next week we will be sending out a second coupon that will give users 20% off of any game or application on Impulse. To help encourage an active Demigod community, we will be occasionally be sending out additional coupons to active players of Demigod (people who play more than a couple of hours a week).

  	We thank you for your business and hope you are able to enjoy these updates to Demigod.

  	[I]*Offer Expires: May 29,  			2009[/I]

I have one of the 50% coupons as well. How does it work? I see no way for me to give anyone a code or whatever. Do I have to buy the second copy of Demigod and gift it to the recipient?

Mine has a code in the email, on the right hand side.

Gave my code away, although im sure lots other have them on here as it was popular for a short while.

Thanks! I needed to actually open the email rather than just previewing it. Dur…

JonRowe · 2009-05-22T08:58:39.000Z

PM’d Cal!

Galadin · 2009-05-22T08:58:57.000Z

I also have a code available for anyone who will buy the game.

JonRowe · 2009-05-22T09:00:24.000Z

Doh!! I should read. I would take a code Galadin! Cal gave his away already.

Ninyu · 2009-05-22T09:01:34.000Z

I have an extra copy of Half Life 2 on Steam that I can give to someone. I bought The Orange Box finally but already had Half Life 2. If someone hasn’t played it yet (ha) and has a Steam ID let me know.

**** This has been claimed ******

Crater · 2009-05-22T09:08:43.000Z

I don’t know if there’s a separate begging thread for this, but I would happily take a Demigod coupon off of someone’s hands.

Jab · 2009-05-22T09:58:50.000Z

I have a half off coupon for Demigod as well, first one to PM me gets it.

edit: Coupon is sold.

JonRowe · 2009-05-22T10:20:25.000Z

Thanks Galadin. I will pick this up sunday, or maybe tonight, but I have a busy weekend.

On a separate note, I also have an extra copy of Half Life 2, and Half Life 2:Episode One if anyone wants it. Just send me a PM.

Pea green is certainly better than pee yellow.

Seems there is no real Steam Weekend Deal this week (besides free TF2 during the weekend) however “And Yet It Moves” is reduced in price only today.

$9.99 USD (8.99€ and 7.99£)

I got it after having some fun with the demo and for that price.
Check out the demo if you are on the fence.
