Yeah, it is overloaded. I tried to get The Walking Dead. No dice.

Shogun 2 is mine if that price translates well to £.

I haven’t bought a TW game since Rome. Too samey.

Thanks for the screenshots.

@3 Np. It was easier honestly, and less chance of a typo :D :D

Very heavy traffic, can’t do anything. Still have 23hours though :P so hopefully the mad rush will settle down and everyone will purchase in an orderly fashion

God dammit! I can’t do anything, huge traffic, I forsee. I want Crusader Kings II now! Hope Witcher II gets voted for the next bundle, would like to have it on Steam :D . I predict I’ll run out of my monthly savings in 20 minutes.

That’s basically tradition by now though. It always takes 20 minutes to buy something unless you wait a few hours for things to calm down :P

Hehe :P . It’s loading pretty slowly, isn’t it? I just hope Arkham City or Witcher 2 to be the next deal. Can’t wait for them to embrace my quite slim collection :D .

If I buy NFS Shift 2, will I have to go thru Origin to play it?

The THQ pack is great.. but I own half the games.. and I despise them stealing my extra copies that should rightuflly be mine. Nothing to buy yet then..

Silk, can’t you just keep the extras and trade them to another user for extra copies of games they have laying around?

@13 No, that’s my point exactly. If you buy a bundle and already own any of the games in it, you do not get giftable copies. You get nothing.

I think it’s disgraceful, it penalizes people who are frequent game purchasers.

If I got giftable copies of darksiders, SR3, homefront, metro, stalker, then I would buy the THQ bundle. As it is now, the reason I don’t get the giftable copies is the sole reason I won’t buy the bundle. Same logic applies to every bundle in every sale, I always own a fair portion of the games, and I refuse to get ripped off.
