Hey, i think games from amazon are not region locked. Most region locked games are the ones bought from russia or eastern europe countries stores (maybe south america too, but i don't know). I've bought a lot of keys from amazon and had no problem activating from Spain :)

Since the game is not available in the German Steam Store I think there was something to the rule about this game, but I am not sure and asking the mods would probably be the best idea.

Saints Row 2 and/or 3 also can't be activated in Germany.

Not like it really matters in this topic, but hey the more people that know it the better. :P

Oh and Sniper Elite NZA.But the difference in DR2 OTR is that it can't be downloaded and updated if you have a german IP.

I never said it can't be activated. It's that it can't be bought in the German store.

That explains why I managed to activate it despite the NA markings - I'm in the ROW category :)

Is just GOTY region locked? Is the normal edition safe?

I think all versions of Dead Island (including Riptide) are region locked

all versions are region locked. it doesent matter if you buy only a key or a dvd version with the key in it.

you have to google about the locked regions, but most regions use the same key, germany is a country where a lot of keys cant be installed because of the region lock

Not all DI-Keys are region locked. I read that DI-Amazon Keys are...i once bought a key from GMG and it worked in Germany...was a ROW-Key.
