Hi Tony, do you know if Amazon has ever put the Burnout Paradise Bonus Vehicle Pack [Online Game Code] on sale before? I ask because this is the only way to get the DLC for Burnout Paradise because the in game DLC store is no more. If not, could you find a way to put a sale on it? Thanks, if you can or can't. :)

I can tell you that it was half off in late June/early July.

We'll have the base game + the DLC pack for $7.49 on Thursday but not an individual discount on the DLC by itself. Hope this answers your question :).

Hey Tony,
I asked this a long time ago but never got an answer. I see that you guys are selling Bioware Points now, will those ever go on sale or is it one of the Immutable Laws of the Universe that there will never ever be a deal on Bioware DLC?

I'm pretty sure that's a developer call not amazon's.

I'd bet you can just use Spotflux and get it to register on steam.

Can that not get my account banned, though? I know you can use a VPN to unlock a game early without reproach, but registering a key?

Edit: gently caress it, any US person want to buy the key for $40?

I've registered 4 keys through VPN in the past half year because they were NA specific or blocked in Germany and haven't heard anything.

Just got an email with $5 credit toward Dark Souls 2 from buying Dark Souls like a year ago. It works for about six months after the expected release date, so there's a good chance you can use it with a sale. Nice!

Is it just me trying to look at "Steam titles" under the sale hub, and when you go past page 1 it breaks? Because something is loading, I can see the page for half a second, then another element pops up and the entire page goes white and useless.

Hi Tony, any plan to run the FFXIV special again? It says unavailable when I go on the website with the provided link in the FFIXV thread :)

Noticed square enix pulled the plugged... so I guess my question would be when do you think it will be available again? :)

You can't use multiple, but you can buy an amazon gift card with one of those, apply the balance to your account and use whatever payment you want for the rest of it. I'm not sure if you can use gift balances on digital stuff, though. I might be remembering wrong cuz it's early, though...

Weird, I'm sorry about that. The sale ended on 9/1 so if we're still displaying that pricepoint somewhere it is erroneous.

Also, Sorry I was gone all weekend :(. Pax ate my life.

Tony -- think there's any chance you'll have the Borderlands 2 Season Pass on sale in the near future? I figure we're seeing the base game go on sale everywhere because the ultimate edition (or whatever it's called) is out this fall. But do you think you'll have a corresponding discount on the Season Pass at some point?
