I grabbed the DA pack as well. Just the first one with Awakening and DLC is 22 dollars at Gamestop.

Also grabbed the Dragon Age pack but Origin is giving me an error every time I try to redeem the Ultimate Edition code. It asks me to select which product I'd like to redeem - even though only the one is an option and the other is a blank radio button - and then it loads a broken page. :/

Dragon Age 2 worked fine.

Edit: Got them to do it via chat.

Can someone give me a rundown on Darksiders 2 vs Dragon Age pack? I already sort of know what to expecto from DA pack though, one decent and one good RPG from Bioware, right?
For the record, I enjoyed Darksiders 1 but could have used a better endgame.

Hey guys,

Check this out:

Dawn of War Franchise Pack+Titan Quest Gold

NOTE: Everything except DoW Gold and DoW Dark Crusade activate on Steam

Amazing.

Anyone happen to know how Steam will handle it if I already have regular Titan Quest in my library and then I add the code for Titan Quest Gold? Will Gold show up as a separate title? Or will it just unlock Immortal Throne?

Yeah this is the exact problem I had with my code. It's an EA issue because well, EA.

EA chat seems to be friendly about solving it and Tony is aware and has pinged them about their incompetence.

Tony I know it's not your fault but I figured I'd let you know, I too have the exact same issue with the Dragon Age Origins Ultimate code. The DA2 and both DLC codes work fine, but the DAO one doesn't.

I'm with the Origin Live support right now, they're looking into it all or whatever. Just thought I'd let you know.

I'm playing through Lego Lord of the rings right now. I also picked up the Harry batman pack when you had that deal as well. I'm realizing just how much I love these lego games.

Thanks so much for running these deals. Really appreciate it. Hope you had a great holiday despite obviously working non stop on these deals.

It's the link to the first page where Dragon Age is listed, or at least it is on my end.

So you're saying anything in the OP qualifies for the $5 off coupon?

Why can't Amazon just actually tell me what my credits apply to? what the hell?

The Dragon Age Pack and Alice: Madness Returns will probably show up in the Editor's Choice page like the rest of the games as it expires in a few days.

Amazon Tony links upcoming deals in the OP that will appear on the page, he also tells you the price after the coupon if you're curious. For example:

AmazonTony posted:

1/11-1/13:

Dragon Age Pack - $12.99 ($7.99 after coupon) Contains:

1. Dragon Age Origins: Ultimate Edition
2. Dragon Age 2

Sorry about my earlier confusion with DA there.

Hey there,

look on the right hand side of the page for that advertisement that says "Looking to use your $5 credits?" That's the list of stuff you can use your credit on.

There really needs to be a joke game to buy at near $5 without the coupon on the last day so people can use all their remaining coupons. I'd say more Bad Rats but it's become so passé.

When SEO just isn't enough.
Bought the Dawn of War pack but it looks like the DoW Gold, DoW 2 Chaos Rising and DoW Dark Crusade don't come with any sort of key or anything?

Had a quick look and it said processing was taking longer than usual? Is keys not showing the result of that?

I'm sorry, I'm not really familiar with the DoW games. For all I know they're part of other keys or something.

e: Great pack by the way, Tony. I love when these sort of strategy games are real cheap because I'm too awful at them to justify spending much on them.

I have keys for a couple of those games, looks like it'll take some time for everything to go through.

Retribution question: isn't some of the DLC early equipment unlocks? If so I'd rather hold off on redeeming that stuff until I played the game a bit and saw what the ingame unlock requirements are, see if I want to get them legit.

So what exactly ARE the DoW 1 keys for? Just in-game validation?

I'm not really fussed about DoW 1 -- just curious.

Am I correct in thinking these DoW 2 add-ons are like separate titles then, given the separate Steam library listings?

Nope, all of the DLC stuff is unique to the DLC and cannot be unlocked through gameplay.

PoshAlligator posted:

AFAIK, those keys are only used for multiplayer. If you have the original DOW and/or Winter Assault installed and you install Dark Crusade or Soulstorm, you can input those keys to unlock the original races for multiplayer.

Chaos Rising and Retribution are both standalone expansions. You can install and play them completely independently from the original.
