    It's kinda like buying your game from a tray between the chicken legs and bull testicles on the market.

    I don't think the issue is about them working when bought.

    I think the issue is when Steam flags them as stolen and deactivates 'em. (Potentially)

    If you wanna buy from shady keyresellers that's your prerogative but don't come bitching when the keys get deactivated and removed from your steam account in a week.

    Which yes, will actually happen.

    Just use isthereanydeal plus enhanced steam. That should get you the best prices. If for some reason you hate amazing browser plugins then Nuuvem usually has good prices and they're legit.

    I can also give you a quote for steam gifts that won't be revoked as well, if you're interested. I've helped some DLPers buy some games and I'm willing to help others if you ask.

    DA:O is supposedly free on origins. https://www.origin.com/en-us/store/free-games/on-the-house

    I just get an error when I try.

    I'll try again in a few hours, if I remember.

    It worked for me yesterday.

    Hmm... I just had a play around with the page, and I got the same error, but only when I wasn't logged in. So, try that. Log in.

    I was already logged in, but I did attempt once more and it's worked now.

    I tried it once after I downloaded it from an alternate source. Graphics are nice. Sadly this is only PC port in name. Everything is the same as the console game, even the cntrolls too soo play it only with gamepad.

    I'd say that it's worth it if you are a fan of the franchise. Played it through twice now and there are definitely some great moments in the game that are fleshed out more than the manga did. The fighting in it is simple but flashy and the game looks good. You are definitely going to want the japanese voices though as the English dub voice is.... well its exactly what you would expect.

    I will say that the ending to it is definitely better than the way the manga has gone.

    If anyone is in Australia, there's currently a price error going on for Dark Souls: PTDE. Only $.20 AUD.

    Edit: Fixed, deal is dead D: That was fast

    Currently the Saints Row Ultimate Franchise Pack is on sale from £50 to £13. You get Saints Row 2, 3 and 4 (even though four is quite shit) as well as all the DLC. There is only 3 hours left of the deal so if you want it you should be quick but I think it is a great deal.

    It's $13 in the US but keep in mind that you won't get any extra copies if you own any other games. It's a nice pack though and if anyone needs a copy from the US store, feel free to drop me a pm.

    Edit: Grabbed a spare copy from the sale, if anyone would like it for ~$12, pm me.
