Hi everyone,

Link

My name is Tony, I'm the Marketing Manager for the Amazon Game Downloads group.

NOTE - The deals I list here and in the title are already listed here, but I figured I needed to come with some sort of deal for you guys to talk about.

Link

First and foremost, just want to let you know that one of the head Mods invited me to come post here from Reddit, but I'm not looking to make waves anywhere, so if you, as a community aren't excited about me interacting and posting here then I'll bow out.

With that being said, I'll give you a little background about myself. I joined the Amazon Game Downloads team in August and have been working in the Video Game industry for about 3 years now.

I'm also a 26 year old avid gamer, I'm sure many of the posters here and I share a lot in common. I play League of Legends like it is my job and I still consider FFIV(II in the US) to be the pinnacle of all that is RPG.

I'm here to bring you killer deals on PC downloads, talk with you about video games, and help you with questions/issues that you might have.

Here's a line by line list of games we'll have on sale starting tonight at 12:30AM PST(or thereabouts):

The Witcher 2 - $14.99 (Deal of the Week is extending through 2/29)

Darkness II - $24.99 - Activates on Steam

Payday: The Heist - $4.99 Activates on Steam

Saint’s Row The Third - $24.99 Activates on Steam

Warhammer 40K Space Marine: $14.99 Activates on Steam

Red Faction Armageddon - $4.99 - Activates on Steam

Mirror’s Edge - $4.99

Sim City 4 Deluxe Edition - $4.99

Warhammer 40k: Dawn of War II Retribution Complete Pack - $19.99 Activates on Steam

Assassin’s Creed Brotherhood - $7.49

NBA 2K12 - $9.99 + $5 off MLB 2K12 Pre-Order

Trine - $1.24

Here's a link to the full sales page:

We will also have a TON of Space Marine and Retribution DLC on sale as well for 66% off.

Again, sorry for the repeat of deals, I wanted to make sure I didn't just post a "here I am!" post though :).

By the way, question for you, if we put Stronghold III on sale for $15 who would be excited about that deal?

Cheers,
Tony

Tony, any idea what I should expect from the Gold Box on tuesday? Got an email detailing it would be about video games all day long, never really heard of the gold box before though.

Last time they did one it was just a bunch of console games - mostly bundled with accessories.

So the Gold Box stuff is generally console related, as mentioned below. Sorry for the downer :(.

Ah, I think I've seen you on CAG through google. I was too lazy to actually sign up, still, can I ask this question here? I do know that some games you provide steam keys for and some games you don't because the companies don't cooperate or other behind the scenes things.

But what about The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim? That is a game that MUST be activated on Steam even if you own a physical copy, I'm "working" to get gift cards to buy it from you guys in DVD form but personally if I could save a few dollars and ignore shipping by getting it from Direct Download, I think that would be better. Any plans to bring it there in the future?

No immediate rush, it'll probably take me 3 to 5 months either way. I just wanted to know if there were any plans to do so.

You're correct in that the DRM (Steam key vs not) decision is completely up to the publisher. As for The Elder Scrolls, we're not currently distributing any Bethesda content, which is why you don't see that game as an option for Digital Download yet.

Cheers,
Tony

ah, alrighty, they should talk to you guys haha. Ah well, I'll probably be getting the DVD Rom one from you guys unless someone else puts it up cheaper there, I don't trust the sales of the "used" PC ones because that means they probably used the steam key -_-
