    Servers are closing next month.

    Apparently 2142 will remain playable on new servers.

    Anyone know if there's a chance Watch Dogs will be going cheap on Steam before launch? I've had a good few G2A offers for around €30 but it's always the Uplay version.

    It's currently €21 for the deluxe version on Origin on the Indian Origin webstore.

    As far as I know and from my experience with Ubisoft games even with Steam versions, when you hit play it will still just open uPlay and run it from there so not much of a difference.

    Ah really? Never knew that, I'd been kicking myself recently for buying physical copies of Splinter Cell, Far Cry and AssCreed because they register with Uplay instead of Steam. I might just accept the inevitable for Watch Dogs too then.

    Thanks but honestly, I'd rather have it on Uplay even than Origin.

    Not a clue. Also worth noting Asda are selling it at the same price while stocks last :)

    Battlefield 2142 Deluxe Edition is only €0.71 on amazon.com at the mo!

    Excellent game which iv put a good amount of hours into over the years and there as still servers running, maybe not as much but still some busy dedicated ones. Still definitely worth the price considering a 93% off discount!

    As it's a digital game I didn't think you would have to use fake details.

    I'm getting "Game Downloads are only available to US customers." when i got to checkout

    Just change your address to a US one and it will allow you to buy it then.

    Yeah that's there is the problem. Amazon 1-click while very handy was using my Irish address by default. Added an US address to the settings and everything is working now.

    Just make sure all of these games you're buying have an alternative method for online multiplayer now that Gamespy is closing down.

    Not strictly a bargain, but worth posting somewhere on this forum (might as well be here).

    Competition on GOG.com:

    Like this post to enter a competition. The prizes:
    In a week time, we'll randomly pick a hundred people who'll receive a pack of ten $9.99 gift-codes, and one person who'll be getting a batch of hundred (!) $9.99 gift-codes. Winners will be announced here, on our profile, and asked to contact us via FB private message for their prizes.

    That's a lot of packs. It'd be nice to see a few boards.ie winners. :)

    Just so people are aware. You can purchase The Witcher or The Witcher 2 anywhere physically or digitally anywhere other than GOG and you're entitled to a GOG version of each game free, yes free. In it's own right that's also bargain.

    Cheers for the extra money off code as I had been looking to pick up Batman Origins on the cheap. I had thought this was a different deal each day and I completely forgot bout it yesterday. Had a look today and managed to pick up for 5 euro using the code. Now that what I call cheap :D

    I'm actually not sure now. Didn't use any rewards just straight buy.

    I think it may be a conversion issue. Does the website automatically change into your local currency? I thought it was still in US$ but it may have actually been in NZ$. I still only got charged $11 in total (I also bought Just Cause 2 for $3).
    Batman was originally $9 on the sale but when I used to code it went down to 8 which is roughly 5 or 6 euro in either currency!
