What game you want a giveaway for? (Voting ends 24 hours from when thread went up)
Where are you seeing that Star Trek Bridge Crew and Raw Data are in the Intel Starter Pack? Also, are they Steam keys or direct download?
Just curious, because I'm very interested in picking those two up.

Nice! Thanks for the info, and that's the same game I'm looking at getting. :D
Comment has been collapsed.
so lets get this straight:
Buy a silver/gold game
get 4 games from intel pack (5 if sub to newsletter)
get a voucher for 1 game from GMG for silver/gold
deal so confusing :(
Comment has been collapsed.
It is kind of confusing, even more because you get a key you activate on intel's website and then when you choose the games you get a key for each game to use in GMG to actually get the games. But for the most part it's as you mentioned.
Comment has been collapsed.
so you get a total of 6 games or 7 games with newsletter for buying 1 game?
Comment has been collapsed.
Yeah. Some of the options in the Intel pack are DLC or currency (didn't pay too much attention) for online games, but there are 5 that are actually games to choose from.
Comment has been collapsed.
Been having issues activating the keys Intel gives you back on GMG - not sure why. Contacted support to see if they can help!
EDIT: All fixed. They had to do something to my account to make it work. So contact support if you have the same issue!

Oh, I thought the game from the newsletter was just another pick from the same 10 options, now I regret not signing up for the newsletter to get GRID Autosport
Mind if I add your summation? I might have to skip the links as I'm not sure if there's a limit to the links you can add to a main thread. I remember there being some issues with that in other threads.

Psst. Not all hope is lost!.
Thanks for the alert thread :)

For a second I was confused why it says Fanatical there, might want to change that :P

Pinball FX3 provides a Steam key directly in the starter pack

I think I might have missed it, when do they give you the option to subscribe to the newsletter?
Comment has been collapsed.
When you put the code in the Intel website, it first asks to accept some terms and then asks if you want to sign to the newsletter, it even has another popup, asking you if you're sure you don't want the bonus software, which I confirmed not wanting because I thought it would just be one more from the list of ten.
Comment has been collapsed.
Thanks, I was already falling asleep when I was signing up on their website and I didn't remember that.
Comment has been collapsed.
Ok, I agreed to newsletter, there was no info of an extra game.
I can only choose from "PICK 4 OUT OF 10 GAME TITLES"
Where I can find this one from newsletter ?
Am I blind or I just need a coffe ?
Comment has been collapsed.
Great deal if you were meaning to purchase something already. Been holding off purchasing The Outer Worlds until I know what their bonus free gift was and am happy enough to buy it. Always wanted Rage for a while now and happy to get it for free :)
Comment has been collapsed.
Yeh , agreed .
Works out nice if you were gonna get or were thinking of getting a particular game anyway.
This way , you get your game with a load of free ones on top.
Comment has been collapsed.
Thanks for the info - this is a great deal! Had my eye on Strange Brigade for a while and although it's slightly more expensive than Steam's sales price, all the extra free games made up for the little price difference :)
FYI, I signed up for the newsletter but I didn't get the extra game (yet). Maybe the email with the code takes a while before it reaches my inbox? :P
Comment has been collapsed.
Can't say for sure, I actually decided not to sign up for the newsletter, just saw the mention.

If you're using a Gmail e-mail, don't forget to check your Promotions folder. Ever since they added special folders, e-mails keep getting lost in them, even when they're from established sources that you've been getting e-mails from [of the same type, even] for years. -.-;
Comment has been collapsed.
Received the email around an hour ago. It's in my Primary inbox though.
A quick FYI - For those who subscribed to the newsletter, you may need to wait up to an hour before you receive an email from Intel.
This is what it looks like:

Is anyone else disappointed that "Raw Data" and "Star Trek: Bridge Crew" aren't, in fact, related in theme?
Comment has been collapsed.
Mm. The games at best match their previous Steam sales, and the majority seem to fail at that. The freebies seem to be about what you'd expect. Definitely seems to be more of an "I was going to get this game anyway, so let me get some free games with it" promotion than anything in line with the sale appeal that we'd expect from a bundle or similar promotion.
Well, their previous bundle status aside, the gold tier at least as a few high profile games like Arkham Asylum and Injustice, for those who missed them in previous bundles. Injustice doesn't seem to have gone out in any lower than 1.33 per-game bundle yet, either (which appears to be nearly twice the per-game bundle cost of the next most valuable [by that consideration] gold game).
Comment has been collapsed.
Yeah the sale on it's own is not that great. But if you have VR or are interested in getting one at some point both those games seem to have a good reception. Also apparently the Star Trek game can be played without VR.
Comment has been collapsed.
Humph, I refuse. I only accept a Bridge Crew which offers real, unfiltered, raw Data.
Comment has been collapsed.
Thanks for the heads up, but GMG is making it way to messy for me.
First I have to make an angry-old-fart-post here to be corrected on which tiers gives what reward (thanks Aethyna and drbeckett;
Then I have to look through the games in two different tiers to see which ones I'd consider buying;
Then I have to go throw all the rewards for both tiers and compare to Steam so I don't get games I already own;
Continued on the first step, the Intel-reward is now thoroughly explained to me so even I understand how it works;
Then I have to go back to my original angry-old-fart-post and edit it. Twice. Because I was corrected twice. Because I'm stupid ;-).
Due to the amount of effort they're making me go through to just buy a bundle, I'm not going to.
To me, this is the equivalent of a travelling salesperson coming to my driveway, beeping the car horn to get me to go out there to ask what he wants. It's just lazy, and I'm not in for such a ''ride''.
The idea might be good with lots of choices, but the way it's done is just horrendously messy.
Comment has been collapsed.
If you want to get the free games from Intel, you just need to check out the games in the Gold and Silver tiers.
Comment has been collapsed.
Well you can see the link to the Intel site here were it says "Got your Intel® starter pack key? Redeem" but it's definitely quite messy.
Also as a correction it's on greenmangaming not Fanatical. And only two of the lists (Gold and Silver) gives you the Intel key, which is more to add to the confusion.
Comment has been collapsed.
Yep ,needlessly convoluted.
Very ,very ,messy and opaque but is is possible to wade through it ,with some help from users here.
I'm sure many would just be turned off by it.
They don't seem bothered at GMG about making sales easily.
Or maybe they're trying to hide the fact that it's not a great deal unless you were wanting the main purchase anyway. :P
Trying to blind you with misdirection :)
Let's face it .most of the sites are at it.
If it's not "mystery loot-boxes", it's weird stuff like this.
Comment has been collapsed.
Too right.
I have jumped those hoops myself, many times, but this one was just one hoop too many ;-)

@drbeckett - Maybe you'd like to also mention in the OP that by buying any game from the Gold, Silver or Bronze tiers, you'll also get 1 giveaway entry per purchased game for GMG's Summer Sale Giveaway event. Each person/account can get up to 5 entries max

Why is it always steamgift users who have to come to the rescue and make things simple for us.
Comment has been collapsed.
That does it, I'm getting a Ryzen. Why the hell do they care where I come from when I'm redeeming something I paid for?
Comment has been collapsed.
Did you get someone to help you claim the games?
Edit: Khayta recommended using Opera's VPN and that seemed to work, so you might want to try that.
Edit 2: But the recent Ryzen do look good. I'm not updating any time soon but if they keep that up I might go with AMD next upgrade.
Comment has been collapsed.
Yeah, Khayta's tip worked nicely.
But that's not the problem, the problem is they think it's normal to block VPNs for people who already purchased stuff. Blocking VPNs before purchase is douchy already, but I can understand that due to license reasons they must enforce georestrictions, etc., so at least that's understandable. Blocking VPNs after purchase is like "eh, your IP was good enough to give us money, but it's not good enough for us to deliver the goods" :x
(and yes, Ryzens are pretty nice ATM anyway ^^)
Comment has been collapsed.
I have them already but yep ,some nice additions to your Steam library and don't cost the earth either.

Thanks for the heads up. Since I'll have a VR-capable PC soon, I'm tempted.

Comment has been collapsed.
As you can see, I revealed all keys on my Intel page. I'm aware what should be redeemable. I just started one by one, completely unaware I should choose what I wanted the most, but luckily got them all. As for newsletter, yeah, few hours later after revealing GRID Autosport, all other games are giving "We are temporarily out of codes and working to reload our system. Check back soon." info when try to reveal.
I bought my Gold tier game just few minutes after sale started, maybe there was a temporary bug.
EDIT: Yup, just found out on Reddit that I'm not the only one. There was a bug on Intel side during early stage of sale. It's a great deal anyway.
Comment has been collapsed.
Ah I see, I wasn't aware that you made your purchase a few minute right after the sale launched. Had no idea there was a bug either
Comment has been collapsed.
Yep, I bought a silver tier game and was able to grab all 10 items from the Intel Starter Pack as well.
I didn't realise the newsletter Master Key was separate thing so I wasn't able to check if we could get all 5 newsletter games though haha
Comment has been collapsed.
Can someone explain me the ""Free" gold game reward (choose 1 out of 15 games)"
So I got a "100% Free Gold Reward" key
What list can I choose from? and where do I enter this key?
Comment has been collapsed.

There are tabs "Gold/Silver/Bronze", choose Gold (should be default, tho).
"Buy" game and just use your code during checkout to make it $0.

100% Free Gold/Silver/Bronze Reward code. If you buy game with G in top left corner, you will get Gold code. S-Silver, B-Bronze.

Got Lethal VR (Bronze) and got Raining blobs for free. All in all I think I got a good deal on good VR games and decent non-vr games.
Comment has been collapsed.
I'm thinking about buying a bronze-tiered game 'cause I've got it wishlisted and it's a nice price, is there any "hidden gem" between the bronze free games I can claim?
Comment has been collapsed.
So if someone buys something cheap from bronze, sign up for a newsletter and get one out of those 5 free (Grid Autosport) or goes only for silver and gold?
Comment has been collapsed.
only silver e gold, bronze has its own list of free games, but only one gmg free game, not the whole interl thing
Comment has been collapsed.
But isn't it you get a free game with your purchase, and signing up for newsletter is another free thing?
It's confusing.

Above mentioned newsletter sign up is related to Intel. And you are only eligible for the Intel promo by purchasing a silver or gold product.

* Looks like GMG is temporarily out of stock of Intel Starter keys, they mention they'll send the keys later but you might not want to risk it.There might be more in stock now. Thanks for the info thekuriboBe sure to redeem your bronze, silver and gold rewards before 2nd August at 15:59 BST because it looks like they're removing them then. According to an email Uroboros received. On Twitter they mention 5th August, 4PM , but better safe than sorry.
I'm starting to feel like GMG mouthpiece considering that it's the second GMG thread I created in a little over a month but I thought it was a good deal to share and there's no thread yet.
If you buy a game from the Gold or Silver lists you get 4 games from the "Free Intel® Starter Pack" (5 if you sign for their newsletter) which include Star Trek: Bridge Crew and
