Hi guys, can you tell me if the site Game Guide World is a good site to buy games? I want to buy some steam games there and they are selling really cheap.

Here's a link: gameguideworld.net

I can see that they're selling Russian Borderlands 2 keys (and not being very upfront about it) and telling you to activate it via VPN, while also claiming it's region free. I wouldn't trust these guys just because of that.

Google™ told me that they sell/sold RU keys as region free. => Wouldn't trust them.

If I remember correctly, they buy games cheap in Russia and sell them there.

They claim VPN is legal and safe. True? Seems fishy to me, could one get banned for that from Steam?

Nothing illegal about it, but Valve might very well pick up on it. It is not safe since Steam's records will clearly show you connecting from another address and registering a key, then disconnecting and connecting back from your usual IP.

To them, it is circumventation, which is not allowed according to the subscriber agreement.

You agree that you will not use IP proxying or other methods to disguise the place of your residence, whether to circumvent geographical restrictions on game content, to purchase at pricing not applicable to your geography, or for any other purpose. If you do this, we may terminate your access to your Account.

No problem there. The GMG version isn't a shady Russian key, which requires a VPN to activate...

Hey Guys,

I just bought borderlands 2 off www.gameguideworld.net and used the VPN activation method and it works perfect.
Took me 5mins to activate and I just downloaded the English version in steam. It comes up in steam in 2 different versions.
One is RUS and other is normal retail ENG version.
I'll be buying my games from these guys now, another thing was it was delivered Instant!

"Took me 5mins to activate and I just downloaded the English version in steam"

"Send forth the minions, with their glowing reviews"....

"Just downloaded" BL2? Has 41 hours logged. Seems credible...

LOL ok I didn't download it just then but over week ago but it works fine.
I've also played online with other people in Australia.
Heres what it looks like in steam: http://s15.postimage.org/m6wkodzgr/Capture.jpg

Yes I only just signed up to this because I saw it on gameguideworlds facebook page and found this on here.
I was just answering the guys question anyway.

Not so normal. If I'm not wrong you only can play online with people that bought it like you. And doesn't seem a good idea to post that you broke the steam agreement.

EDIT: Ninjaed, first activity on the site is this message, totaly legit!!!

Russian BL2 key for $49.99? It's a focking ripoff. Real price is around $16.
