Search your email for "1000728511" from 2014. You should have received all your notifications about the credit on the same day (mine came Jan 3rd). I have a stack of four of those emails on that day -- but you also have to keep track of how many you've already used yourself.
[edit] Also, it'll show you the total (with the $5 credit applied) before you confirm -- though I'm not sure what it does if you have 1-click ordering turned on in Amazon. [/edit]

It was still a good deal for Bioshock Infinite + Castlevania. BI is only slightly less and I don't think I've seen Castlevania for as low elsewhere.

Edit: I wouldn't be surprised if the price of Bioshock Infinite was raised again back to where it was before. Just speculation on my part, but I think this may have happened because the base price dropped from $40 to $30 (which is in line with the recent price drop on other stores), while the discount % stayed the same.

10 years ago
Permalink

Comment has been collapsed.

At the time they lowered the base price from $40 to $30 they also changed the discount % to reflect that change, so at first the price stayed at $13.20.. and it was changed back to 67% afterwards so I'm pretty sure it's not a mistake.

I wouldn't say that. It's a bit better but still pales in comparison to last year. Other than EA and a few games from 2K, the only other publishers on board with any significant number of offerings has mostly been 505 Games, Rockstar, and Square Enix. Still many other publishers out there who have not participated.

As an FYI, the current plan we're discussing is to not run EC again next year. This could, of course, change, but in all likelihood 2014 will not see a return of the sale.

So I saw the post says there's no way to check the credit amount you have through Amazon, but if you go here and then click on the "Enter your code" button, a little popup should appear that not only allows you to enter a code, but also shows your balances for all the promotional credit. There should be one for software/video games, that's probably where the EC credit is at. Just something I found a bit helpful for those who want to keep track how much credit is left.

10 years ago
Permalink

Comment has been collapsed.

It does not list or itemize what those credits actually are, it is only accurate if you know for a fact that the $5 EC credits are the only type of promotional credit that you have on your account. For example, it says I have $35 for software/video games but I know for a fact that I have only $10 worth (2) of EC credits left. The other $25 must be for some promotions that I'm not even sure what they are.

Comment has been collapsed.

Are you referring to XCOM Collection (the collection of the older games and Enemy Unknown) or The Bureau?
(If The Bureau, just wanted to note not to judge the other main XCOM games from that as they play much differently.)

Enemy Unknown is the only XCOM I've played to completion though, and for that one, the story's not particularly amazing, but it keeps the gameplay moving and the strategic turn-based gameplay is easily the highlight of the series.

10 years ago
Permalink

Comment has been collapsed.

Pretty much just referring to XCOM EU/EW and The Bureau. I see that EU/EW is more the turn based route and Bureau is kind of 3rd person. Just didn't know if I should spend my last 3 coupons on them or just wait to see if better games come to EC.

10 years ago
Permalink

Comment has been collapsed.

IMVHO, definitely pick up Enemy Unknown whenever you feel like it's a good deal -- I put about forty hours into it and enjoyed naming all my recruits after my friends and their usual nicknames. I haven't shelled out for The Bureau yet though -- mostly because the Metascore doesn't give me high enough confidence that I'll enjoy it despite it seemingly attempting to cash in on the XCOM name. I did pick up Enemy Within, but haven't played it yet.

Also, checking your most-played games, I see a lot of shooters. I was going to say definitely pick up Bioshock Infinite because of that, but it looks like you already own it! Play that game! It has an excellent story! (I skipped Bioshock 2 and went straight to Infinite and have no regrets.)

But back to XCOM... yeah, if you feel like you want a change of pace to something more strategic, Enemy Unknown was one of my favorite games and I would recommend it. Again, not so much because of story, but just because it's fun to play. (Checking... yep... there's a demo on Steam -- should give you hopefully a decent idea of if you think it's worth it.) For Bureau, I'm still waiting for a much better deal on that one.

10 years ago
Permalink

Comment has been collapsed.

Thanks for a long thorough reply! Yeah, i picked up Infinite while it was 13.20 and not 9.99 (As in right now lol) and am still playing through the first one. Loving it so far. I love how Infinite is steampunk looking. I have played a lot of shooters in my time but i use to just play rpgs mostly on consoles because I love getting pulled into the story and trying to get the most out of it. I will definitely have to check out the demo for XCOM and see if I like it. I like the setting in The Bureau, but yeah, I see what you mean with that metascore it has. Thanks a bunch!

I did played both previous installments (back when they were released), and of course MP3 did not made the same kind of speechless impression on me as those did, but it's still quite good (i'm 33% in, so don't know if it will turn so much worse as you say). Judging from the Splinter Cell Conviction, and Hitman Absolution, which were clearly a awful turnaround to the series, and games not deserving to be called as part of their series, MP3 seems quite legit to me. Yes i miss those cartoonish comics style scenes, and the voice is not quite the same, but to be frank i can not imagine a much better version of MP3, surely you don't expect same gameplay mechanics after 10 years of gaming evolution.
So yeah, when i complete it, then i'll rate it, but for so far on (bout 33% in) it is really worth the money i spent on it. (tip: look at Alan Wake, from Remedy, and think if they could have done a better Max Payne 3, i don't think so, i even have read an article where Remedy praises R* for their good work). Story-wise it's no wonder first Max Payne game is unbeatable.

Once again, i want everyone who thinks to buy MP3 or not, to be sure, that at this price, this game is superb deal. In no way it is as bad as Splinter Cell 5 or Hitman 5.

Compared to the first two games it is utter sh*t.
Not judging it based on its two predecessors it is barely average game where you spend most of the time watching cut-scenes, running in to the room, shooting couple of guys equipped with terrible AI, and this repeat through out whole game.

First of all, sorry for my english, not my main language.

Just wanted to give a heads up to the European people if buying Bioshock Infinite, I bought it today, they gave me an NA ( North America ) key, how do I know that? Well, when I activated it, it said "Bishock Infinite Retail (NA)" or something like that, I'm from Spain, when I activated it, it worked without problems ( I didn't use a VPN or any kind of software to fake my location ). I can play the game. But I'm not sure if I got lucky while activating it, or it's a bug, so yea, just wanted to give a heads up if you're buying it from Europe, you might have some problems activating the game afterwards.
