Anybody know if I can buy, for example, the THQ Medley, install the games I want then keep the rest to gift/sell when the Steam Market comes out of beta?
Registering a key always goes to your inventory. If you want to gift something via trading/etc you probably need to buy it as a gift from steam and put it in your inventory, as far I know.

For those looking at The Secret World, the 'buy in December' perks (account-wide access to a few nice newbie items, plus the Issue 5 mission pack, which will eventually be a paid item) are still there, but it's probably best if you claim them sooner rather than later, so long in ASAP and tag them.

You need to make it to the first quest area "Kingsmouth" then the item store will unlock, and there is an area for claimable items.
Wow, who thought that was a good idea. So I actually can't just buy the game, register an account with the key and be good until I get around to it?

Still tempting at the price with the coupon though. (seems like a bit of a chore to save what, 5 dollars is the Issue #5 pack?)

That fix was basically all the PC patch contained, there's still heaps of bugs in the game.
The beta patch, numbered 1.3 or something? I could never get that to install properly. The main menu would keep saying 1.0 when I launched the game.

Well that kind of sucks because I decided to use the CAGROCKS code on the preorder and now it's gone. :shrug:

Doesn't work for me even if I used it. Well, I didn't "use" CAGROCKS, more that it seemed to auto apply to my next purchase.

Also definitely :canada: here abusing .com's DD service, so yeah. Dunno if that makes a difference.

Is it known how long Dark Souls is going to be on sale for? I'm still teetering on it due to money being a little tight at the moment, but if it pretty much ends tomorrow it might force my hand.
Weeklong. Amazon's promo up on that top right corner says 28th to 3rd.

I got an Industrial Revolution code and attempted to create an account at their site (rather than using Facebook), but I'm not receiving the validation email. And no it's not in my spam folder. I tried asking for a password reset as well.

*shrug*

Is there some in-game content for Infinite associated with playing the webgame? Not sure how much I should worry about it at this point.
There are some reskinned/buffed weapons and some bonus cash and stuff you get somewhere early down the line, but I pre-ordered and either never redeemed it or bothered to look for it and just went about my merry way.

Just got an alert that Assassin's Creed IV Black Flag Gold Edition for Steam and Uplay dropped to $60 is you were waiting for a deal to come up.
Of course there is no way to actually upgrade to the Gold Edition anywhere, huh Ubisoft?

So was AC4: Gold Edition dropping from 80$ to 60$ just some one time thing that Tony didn't have much to do with? Otherwise I wouldn't really mind biting at 35$ for the regular edition.
