You cannot argue with gamersgate - it's the biggets online game shop, with over 30k items they sell it's not that hard to get over 100 steam games. but without the sale deals when amazon added some steam versions of games (and i dont know if it wasnt just 1 time deal). GMG is still looking strong

Yeah I got the first RO and Dwarfs for free from the credit they hand out.
Great site.

I still have some credit left, but I prefered to just buy Dwarfs at that price, both because I loved what the devs did here and because I love GMG too with all their free stuff :) Actually, that was my first and only real purchase from them so far. But not the last, I guess.. :P

Its basically the digital equivalent to gamestop. Except your not pressured into buying a "subscription". I hope they gain traction as Im sure its profitable and hope steam would start accepting trading ins. If they do im sure it would be only for games bought direct from them.

I don't mean the trade-in feature on its own, that part makes sense. What I'm confused by is how much free credit they give out in terms of free games and other stuff. I think I've spent a combined total of $1.50 buying 3 games from them, and I have another $5 in credit waiting to be spent.

Well, taking a stab in the dark id say either they have tighter margins, or perfectly planning loss leaders. The free games themselves are really old. So you could say they are basically the same as coupons that retail stores do. The actual credit feature (none trade in value) though seems odd. Might be a set budget? No idea.

I like them too, but I couldn't get those free games, because I'm in a public network. Support did not even gave me a coupon. You lucker ;)

Yes that way I got Metro2033, Darksiders and Sniper Ghost Warrior for free.

GMG is awesome.
I bought a physical copy of Dragon's Dogma for the PS3 from them yesterday. The game came today in pristine condition with some free sweets (haribos). <3
I don't know if they ship anywhere else other than the UK since they're based in London.

they are good but their paypal verification system is pretty annoying

Question, can you buy a discounted game (Ex: Disciples II for $2 (instead of $20) and then wait a few weeks/months for it to be back up to $20 and then trade it in? Or can you only do that with free games?)

The trade in value changes with time, but it's never close to the full price of the game. I can currently make one cent by trading in my copy of Deus Ex for $2, which I got for $1.99 (normal price $7.99), but I can't imagine you'll be able to make any significant amount of money this way, and even this is probably rare. (The trade-in value when I bought it was $1.50.)

they have RO2 for $5. they giveaway free games all the time which you can then trade in for cash credit on the site. They also sometimes(if you nice when you file for a support) give you free credit if you have a problem. i bought metro 2033 a couple weeks back when it was cheap but the discount didnt work and it purchased anyway so they added the difference to my bank and added it also to my site credit. so with a few free games and free credit i got RO2 for 25 cents. 25 cents! thats amazing!
