For those who don't know how to buy from gamestop US when outside US.
https://app.gyft.com/me/cards/purchase/
type gamestop.
Gift card in an instant after payment. Don't panic when you're copy pasting the card code, it's gonna miss 3 numbers (because of spaces) and check it again.
Proof:
gamestop order confirmation w/ steam keys
gyft game stop card code and pin

Is it possible to buy it outside the US with this?
Comment has been collapsed.
this is the way how non-US people can buy it. You still need to input a random US address to it (doesn't matter since u have a gift card, gamestop will just only sell if you have a US address)

Does anyone else have the following message looping and can't buy a gift card :
Oops, There Has Been A Problem!
There has been an unexpected error.

Damn- i accidently bought a $15 instead of $20 Gamestop Code from Gyft (sucessfully using paypal after text verification). Now I can't buy $5 so need to buy $10, but not working anymore (verification failed - try another payment method)... so I'm a but stuck. In the uK

Anyone got a spare $3 on their giftcard? I make payment via paypal instantly. I have $15 only giftcard and need $3 to purchase
Comment has been collapsed.
You, Sir, are a legend of a man. Everything worked without any hiccups (although Gyft was hard to convince that I indeed DO exist). Thank you very much! I tip my hat to you
Comment has been collapsed.
Bah. This gyft.com shop is horrible. At first they wanted me to verify a phone number so I could buy with Paypal,
when I did, they want to to connect a social network account. I have no social network account and I'm not gonna
get one jst to buy a gift card and I'm not gonna use up my last bitcoins either. So I guess I'll just pass.

they detected your IP as sketchy. They also hate private profiles.
Comment has been collapsed.
The IP thing, maybe so. It's a standard German IP, no VPN or anything. But what does the purchase of the gift card have to do with my Steam Profile?
Comment has been collapsed.
not sure what went wrong there. i just entered my name and email for the account, confirmed the account, then chose to pay with paypal - and i got the gift card key like 1 second later. no problems at all.
Comment has been collapsed.
Lucky you. They want to have my mobile number for SMS verification :(
Comment has been collapsed.
Funny enough I gave them my mobile number for SMS verification and they they're not satisfied still
and want a social media account. I just tried agin, this time they didn't want social media anymore,
but instead they sent me an email that they were unable to complete my purchase.
Comment has been collapsed.
sigh
I gave them my mobile number, i linked my facebook, and in the end I got this message:
"Sorry, we were unable to verify your order. Please try a different payment method."

For the better probably ... seems like gamestop just noticed their pricing error.
Imagine you'd be sitting on a $20 giftcard now with the game back at $60.
Comment has been collapsed.
Ah well.... I might have regretted this purchase anyways as soon as they put it in a bundle.
Comment has been collapsed.
Guess we'll have to wait at least until summer next year or so. It took them a very long
time with the 2013 Tomb Rider to go below $20.
On the other hand, I'm pretty sure my GPU can't handle that game anyway. For $18
I would have been willing to give it a try, though ;-)
Comment has been collapsed.
Haha, yeah, $18 was just low enough to tickle my impatient nature ;)
I saw an offer at Gamingdragins for $25 (or was it Euros?) and found it too expensive. Not sure about you (as your profile is private) but at least I have more than enough games to play till next summer anways ;)
Comment has been collapsed.
Also: just send them a support request to delete my account. I don't want any customer
relationship with a company that forces people to pass a Zuckerberg validation just
to buy a gift card. If my paypal's not good enough then I'll take me business elsewhere.
Comment has been collapsed.
Alt method I've seen suggested: Buy a Gamestop e-giftcard @ Amazon (can do custom value but min $25) and use that instead.
Has worked for some people but unfortunately for me my card's fraud detection got flagged and now I'm stuck T__T
Comment has been collapsed.
Amazon used to have PP checkout but it got ditched quite some time ago
Comment has been collapsed.
I think they still have Paypal. Amazon.de does have it for sure. They probably just don't offer it for digital goods such as gift cards, probably because someone could buy and spend the gift card and then chargeback on paypal.
Comment has been collapsed.
ah interesting, for me Amazon US hasn't had PP for a few years and I've only been buying physical goods.
Comment has been collapsed.
Interesting. They seem to accept all types of credit cards.
As we all know there's no such thing as credit card fraud, hehe.
Anyway, the price error seems to be fixed by now ... so it's probably
better that I wasn't even able to buy that gift card.
Comment has been collapsed.
I would have made it in time if my card didn't trip up, oh well it all works out.
On one hand I was REALLY looking forward to RotTR, on the other hand this would have broken my $20 rule & I still have plenty to play in the mean time
Maybe not soon, but a sweeter price is inevitable and maybe we'll grab it then (=

Before I try this, can anyone confirm you get a ROW-key or is it a region locked US-only Steam key?

Seems that they added all the Final fantasy franchise with all time low price....
Comment has been collapsed.
yeah gamestop has some crazy prices from time to time but its US only, afaik. There are (were?) workarounds though but its too complicated for most people, plus im not even sure if it works anymore anyways :/
edit: nvm just read MDuh post, and looks like gift cards is still the way to go :)
Comment has been collapsed.
This is an awesome price and the game is absolutely worth it. I'm happy with my full price purchase but over 60% off so soon is an absolute bargain. I'd be tempted to buy another key to give away at this price if I was in the USA but the workaround sounds a little bit too confusing for me.

Can't get a purchase to go through at Gyft so it looks like I'll have to sit this one out.

too slow sucker, you're still at work and it already fixed/ended.
Comment has been collapsed.
Nice price, had to pick it up, although I'm thinking it has to be a price glitch since the cheapest I've seen these going were 35, and for 7 dollars less you get the game and the season pass.
Thankfully it's Gamestop they are pretty good about not revoking price errors.. Still rocking my Preorder 5 dollar Gat out of hell..

I'm still upset that I missed that preorder if that counts for something

There are nvidia codes that are cheaper than that. :P
Comment has been collapsed.

not for the season pass.

most coupons are more expensive, actually. last time i checked people wanted like 14 keys for the game (i admit, last time i checked was before release ^^). even 10 would be more. you would have to show me a guy who sells it for 8 keys or less. :)
Comment has been collapsed.
I recently saw a trade for 7 keys. And, if they haven't changed that, nvidia codes have an expiration date. The closer to the expiration date, the cheaper the code is. :P And what do you think that the season pass will have? Challenges and guns or something like that. xD
Comment has been collapsed.
They don't expire until end of April.

I can gladly wait till the end of April. And I don't see anything interesting, at least for me, in the season pass.

It makes pirates unable to play games easily.
That's why it's so hated and zero problems for legit users.
Comment has been collapsed.
I have a legit copy and still think DENUVO sucks and that they should get rid of. Witcher 3 didn't use it, in fact it was avaiable on GOG DRM-Free which makes it easy to pirate, yet it sold way more than games protected with DENUVO. DRM won't make people stop pirating games, doing good games that worth the price, will.
EDIT: Yeah, I don't like steamworks either, I like their community stuff but not as DRM.
EDIT2: I know DENUVO is "not a DRM" (if you believe them).
Comment has been collapsed.
yeah, windows is too. That's why you didn't bought that too right? but you're still using it.
Comment has been collapsed.
when you have a DENUVO game , this install a program in your hard drive taking information of all your activities (and acting like drm for your game) and this program can move in your hard drive (you dont have control of this) and when you uninstall the game, this program DONT uninstall, the program is still in your system taking information.
Comment has been collapsed.
and does it send the information to a server? because if it doesn't, it's no spyware... (if you think it does, please provide a source).
if it uses hardware information for encryption, for example, that's totally fine.
Comment has been collapsed.
Maybe you shouldn't believe everything on the internet.
Denuvo doesn't install anything, it's entirely in-game.
It even works entirely offline, if you need to.
It does leave license file tho (located in steam userdata folder), so you don't need to reactivate it after reinstall.

I dont believe in the internet , READ THE EULA OF DENUVO , they say this no me.

yeah, and now please read it yourself very carefully. ^^
it says DRM-Software and Denuvo. those are 2 different things. there is DRM-Software, and there is Denuvo. 2 different things.
(IV) says, the DRM-Software may need to connect to the internet for first-time activation. not Denuvo. also the only reason mentioned it first-time activation of the product, not transmission of personal data.
(V) says, Denuvo may leave something behind on your computer after deinstallation. and according to the FAQ on the Denuvo website this is only a single file, and it doesn't do anything.

if you go down and keep reading , is the part who talks about transmition of DATA ,(READ YOU RAM ALL THE TIME)

where should i read? you still didn't post a link. "Point 3 in STEAM" doesn't tell me where to look. which game? Tomb Raider? i looked at the Tomb Raider EULA. it doesn't look like what you posted.
-
of course a copy protection like this has to read the RAM. it prevents manipulation of the process memory of the game, so it obviously has to read it. that alone is not a bad thing, it's a necessity for this to work.
-
the problem is, that you assume things. you read "it reads the RAM", so you assume it reads personal information and sends it to a server. what i asked was, if you have any source that proves what you said, then please show it to me.
you said " taking information of all your activities". show me any proof of that. i can find none, not in the EULA's and not elsewhere.
you said "this program can move in your hard drive (you dont have control of this)". i don't think that's true. what do you even mean by that? ^^ if you mean the program puts a file or two in the windows directory, for example - that's completely normal. many programs do that. this happens because some files are shared between programs (like drivers, libraries, runtimes...), and some windows directories are standard search paths, so every program can find those libraries etc. there. absolutely normal, and even good for you.
you said "when you uninstall the game, this program DONT uninstall, the program is still in your system taking information.". that is not true! the program uninstalls, but there may be a single file (depending on how the game does the deinstallation) which will stay behind. and that file does nothing. if you have a source for anything you said, please show it. so far you have shown nothing at all, sorry.
Comment has been collapsed.
Also pretty much every program does leave files behind, because that how Windows works, libraries could be used to other programs too (DirectX, Visual C++).
Comment has been collapsed.
I mean, technically yes and no. DRM utilizing virtualized instruction sets (nothing new) are slow by nature of how they work (taking native code, turning it into non-native code that needs to be ran through its interpreter before execution, causing what would take 1 instruction to execute into many), which is why when implementing it you have to be careful about what you wrap it around. In effect, not really.

Did they cancel your order and give you a gift card in its place? Just curious.

No, I bought a gamestop gift card from gyft so I could buy Rise of the Tomb Raider from Europe (Paypal and CC were rejected) but it took them 6 hours to send me the card and the deal was over by then lol. So I've bought the FF games on sale with the card
