It's totally surprising, but it looks like G2A is trying to go more legit. They were able to get few publishers and create bundle a'la Humble Monthly.

February G2A Deal will have Superhot, Lords of the Fallen and Dirt3 and something more.

"February G2A Deal’s subscription price is only €1.50 for five wonderful games. And if you don’t want to subscribe just yet, you will always be able to test the waters with a one-time purchase for €2.50. And it goes live this Friday"
"
"Each Deal is created in close cooperation with game developers and publishers to make sure every gamer is satisfied with every pack, every month. All the keys are Steam-activated and acquired directly from developers to remove any unnecessary steps between you and your games."

Dirt 3 smells fishy (as it was removed from Steam, but maybe it was just Codemasters not wanting old game to take the spotlight from new titles?), but still, when tommorow there will be massive wave of Dirt-y Lords of the Superhot Fallen, you'll know who to blame.

Edit: Last two games are Syberia and Syberia 2.
"And when the time is right (between 12:00 – 20:00 CET (UTC+1) | 7 PM – 3AM PST (UTC+8)), we will be the first ones to give you a direct link, right here in this post. You will be just ONE CLICK AWAY FROM G2A DEAL"

Edit2: I think they screwed up times, why would they write "Deal will happen around afternoon in Europe which will be Night for America"?
Unless I missed the info Earth rotates in opposite way, so sun "travels" from west to east...

Edit3: "UPDATE

Due to technical problems we were unable to start the service at announced time. We are still working to deliver G2A Deal as fast as possible. We regret the inconvenience. Stay tuned."
So it begins...

Edit4: ALIVE
Worthy note: "You have to receive and activate those keys before 10th of April 2017. After this date, the keys will be deactivated. "

Edit 6: Deal #2 to start on March 30th., games will be announced in next few days. Thanks Jaru93s. I plan to start new thread when full list of games will be announced (which shound happen before 29th, but who knows...), unless someone will decide to do it before me, no need to duplicate threads.

I don't like subscribe part, g2a and subscribe doesn't sound like a good couple. Anyway I got mostly positive experience with it (only CSGO items tho) and I'm happy to another good bundle.

Either the limit on amount of bundles will be pretty low, or this sounds too good to be true, especially with G2A's less than stellar reputation. Unless developers chime in, I'm not sure I really trust this. On the other hand though, Dirt 3 is pretty low value because of issues in the past, and Lords of the Fallen has been languishing for a while; it was never a great seller, and it hasn't helped that it's fallen into obscurity. Superhot is what makes me anxious, but... we'll see.

That said, I waste so much money on junk bundles anyway this probably isn't any worse, assuming (which is a big assumption) that it's legit.

Very fishy. I'm sending the Superhot team a link and a query to ask them if they've actually agreed to this, because it really doesn't seem to make very much sense that they would given their market position.

Even if they somehow have been cajoled into participating, I'm still loathe to going anywhere near some sort of "subscription" deal with G2A. I'd much rather just pay the devs of Superhot a fair price for a game I'm interested in and would like to support. The potential for future headaches really isn't worth the several dollars one might save chasing rainbows that lead directly into a pile of shit.

Too good to be true. Superhot in particular seems popular and it has been maybe 50% off at best so far. There is no reason for the devs of that to devalue their game and sell themselves short by dumping it into a bundle with a price such as that.

I will need to see if that is true or not. If it is true, I will have to add some devs to my blacklist for cooperating with scammers and have 0 sensibility towards their fellow developers that are daily losing money because of that Chinese company.

"Comments are closed." says it all.

Also G2A are fucking crook, never pay with your own credit card or they will steal your information and lock you into a monthly feed you've never agreed too. And of course support will lie to you no matter how you try to explain to them that it's illegal.

Maybe if there's a class action...

It's a €1.50 bundle from a hugely controversial company supposedly featuring a popular indie game that has so far avoided significant discounts and a racing game that apparently can't be sold due to a dispute with Toyota over the use of their cars. What could go wrong?

I've stocked up on popcorn already...

In Nuuvem usually is at R14 = US$4,49 the GOTY version. I don't see a lock to Brazil or South America, so could be ROW (except RU/CIS and KR). https://steamdb.info/app/265300/subs/ And you'll a brazilian trader.

If there is no limit (in terms of number) or no "blind factor" like the monthly, I guess it will be treated like a regular sale

It depends, if a few traders are selling a limited number of cheap keys for a game that won't get stuff on the bundle list (although it may be a sign that there is a glitch or exploit somewhere that will eventually lead to the game getting retroactively bundled).

But I'm pretty sure stuff has been added to the bundle list before when large numbers of cheap keys have been available on G2A and heavily exploited. As described so far this bundle would certainly count.

G2A certainly isn't ignored and I don't imagine for one moment that people simply not liking G2A will keep games off the bundle list if they are cheap enough and in large quantities.

Well G2A is problematic as it's generally a marketplace like eBay (but shadier) rather than an online store like Steam. If a rogue trader is selling GTA V keys bought with stolen credit card details on G2A for a $1 then does that get a game on the bundled list or become the new lowest price on 'isthereanydeal'? Obviously not.

If it's going to work with developers to sell games as if it was a legitimate authorised seller or bundling site then that is obviously going to get treated differently. But personally I'm still waiting to see what is actually going to happen given that G2As previous attempts to 'closely co-operate with developers and publishers' have led to claims of blackmail and extortion and it's hard to see how at least one of the games in this bundle can legitimately be sold due to licensing issues.

Grammar. Like I'll be at your place between 2 and 8 (spending 6 hours) OR I'll be arriving (!) at your space between 2-8, but not saying how long I'll stay. They said that the bundle will be up from 12 until 20 (and then disappear), not that the bundle will *start in that time range, which they probably meant to. They mixed up a word by accident and made it confusing :)

I doesn't matter how you interpret as you can not argue with grammar, you can not go the "I interpreted differently" way. Things mean what they mean. You can not misinterpret it then try invalidate someone pointing out that you're wrong. Facts are not matter of interpretation, they are matter of understanding or not understanding.
Being alive means beaing alive, not starting. A bundle being up between two dates doesn't mean it will start there. You being alive since your birth to this day doesn't meant you're being born sometimes inbetween.
Don't know though why you thought you should go personal. The non-english speaking person on G2A made an accidental little mistake, and everyone who didn't took it literally understand what he MEANT to say. I pointed out that literally-speaking he said something else, but I understand what he meant, as it was proven by the bundle not starting yet. He said it wrong, end of the story.

Seriously? BECAUSE I MISUNDERSTOOD IT THEN LAUGHED AT MYSELF FOR STICKING WITH THE LITERAL YET ILLOGICAL INTERPRETATION. Then someone didn't understand my comment at all and asked about it. So now which one is a problem. Me laughing at myself, or answering a question? At least read the bloody comments next time before you go all "yeeesh, they just interpret facts differently" shit.
