Green Man Gaming (Steam) Deals: 25% Off Hitman

Apparently Sega is supposed to announce something today in regards to Renegade Ops. In other words, expect another delay.

Rybrad - where is word of this upcoming announcement? :eek:[/QUOTE]

Dear Renegade Ops Fans,

We are terribly sorry for the lack of updates regarding the delay of the game. However, the delay has been out of our hands and the communication with the players are supposed to go through the publisher, due to agreements around announcements etc.

With that said, we are again very sorry for the delay and we expect SEGA to announce more news about the PC version shortly....

Thank you for your support and your patience.

Got my Renegaede Ops key today. Steam still says 6 hours to go, going to try redeeming now. Okay it redeemed but isn't downloading cause the game hasn't been released. I guess this doesn't necessarily mean it's releasing today but it sure is a good sign.
 
Yep we've sent out our keys for the game! You can redeem them but can't preload yet. Everyone who bought it from GMG though will assuredly be ready for release! :D

You may also notice that Sword of the Stars 2 is available!

For those using www.greenmangaming.co.uk we've also got Dragon Age titles up, and Anno 2070 :)

It's a good day!
 
[quote name='Solid-Snake-Eyes']Thanks James, was hoping Renegade Ops would make the new release date and it looks like it will.[/QUOTE]
I am going to remain cynical of Sega until I can actually download it. Since the 11th hour delay of Alpha Protocol for almost a year, they have lost all goodwill with me.

Regardless, good on GMG getting keys out early so if/when the game actually arrives everyone can download it immediately.
 
wonder if the 10% will work on Bastion which is already on sale, been wanting to pick it up and it's also a notable Steamworks game

10% will probably work, usually pretty flexible on what it works on.

In regards to Steamworks:

Was seconds from buying Bastion when I saw the Customer Notes. Whelp, sounds like I will be waiting for the winter sale to pick it up on steam.
 
Yeah me too, it disappeared from my library and then I went to the other room, came back and it was there again saying Not Installed. So I said to install and it's downloading! I really hope it's better than the console version in some way cause I could have bought it for PS3 over a month ago.
 
Is Renegade Ops working for anyone? It fails to launch for me. First it had to repair a Microsoft C++ installation and after that it just says AVA_Main has stopped working. Lots of people having the same problem on the Steam forums.

Works for me, lots of others complaining about issues though. For the redist stuff, just click cancel on that window when it pops up as it means you already have the correct redist installed.
 
I understand the need to be patient, and wait, but after over 2 days, my customer service request still reads that it hasn't even been looked at or assigned to a representative yet.

Good prices, or no, at this point I'm just ready to take my money elsewhere on this one.
 
There's a guy on the steam forums that came up with a fix for the AVA_Main error. I tried it and the game's working fine now. It also came with that Gordon bonus character which GreenMan said their customers would not be getting. Game is cool.

You should post a link to the thread that helped you in case others have the same issue.
 
@Killbomb We're hoping to get THQ titles up in the near future (I wouldn't quote me but I hope it'll be within a month or so) - we've got a Big Publisher thread in the content section of our forums where you can see updates on acquisitions as well as requests from other users for content :)

@MysterD Yep! DRM-Free!

@Maskim Our CS team do try to provide the best response times possible, but it can be tricky, as we're quite a small team overall. If it's regarding the LOTR post I saw earlier, there can occasionally be a delay in how the system is updated, but I'm watching things like a hawk to make sure it's all good :lol:

Hope that covers everything guys :)

Wow, very thorough and informative. If this is any indication of what the future of your stay here at CAG, I can say that I'll be behind you guys all the way. Really appreciate the idea of having a GMG rep here. =]
 
I'm hoping it'll be a darned good indication! :D
I'll also post updates when we get awesome new content - though for various stuff you can find updates on social media and our forums in case I ever miss a trick :)

But yeah it's nice to have our own little place to communicate to CAG! It's an awesome site so it's nice to interact directly with the community :)

Trust me, it's awesome that you're here. We're happy to have you. ;)
 
And as a follow up!
We've got some awesome Halloween themed bargains going !:D
NecroVisioN is 80% off while stocks last,
the Penumbra Collection is 75% off,
and F3AR is 42% off :D

Those are mostly approximations as between regions there are slight differences! I say that because I'm a pedantic git and would just hate to be caught wrong :p

Oh and you can use the 10% voucher on top of those if you haven't used it already :p

You mean NecroVisioN: Lost Company is 80% off.

You guys don't have the original NecroVisioN listed on your site.
 
[quote name='JamesGMG']Egads! I tripped all over at the first hurdle xD Quite right MysterD[/QUOTE]

Lol... We forgive you (at least I do). =]
 
How lame, GMG had Fear 3 for 50% a couple weeks ago and could be combined with the "EATINBRAINS" 15% code as well making it around $21-22.xx.

Glad I got it then.

[/QUOTE] At least your response gives the impression you care, James. After 4 days, I got a response from "Leeroy". Aside from the salutation and good bye, I received one sentence. We changed the price.

Usually when a business advertises a price, they'll honor it. Even if GMG chooses not to honor the price they advertised on their front page when I attempted to purchase the game, I expected more of a response than the price has changed.
 
[quote name='kosmos13x']so I guess when they said coupon runs till 31st of oct, they REALLY meant the 30th just for the lolz.

The cake is a damn lie![/QUOTE]


yeah is a lie :(
 
Updated OP to remove code and added War in the North as a Steamworks pre-order. Any other Steamworks pre-orders that I missed?
 
Hey guys - the voucher code ran til 31st October, although not for the full 24 hours, which may have affected people in different regions (notably the Americas!).
Whenever we set a voucher to expire though it'll affect different people in differing timezones, but when we do another one I'll try to make sure it goes until midnight GMT on that date to allow everyone a bit more time :)

@maskim We all care! Unfortunately price changes will happen though, as we're only able to offer good deals for short periods of time. Otherwise we'd just be a boring store with the same prices as everywhere else, though I do understand that's frustrating if when you try to buy it gets halted. Sorry that CS couldn't help you more than that :/

@rybrad Thanks, we've also got Sonic Generations coming up if you'd like to add that :)

Those Halloween offers are available for a short while longer so if you want 'em grab 'em now :p

Also to keep people updated our offer for the Limited Edition of Battlefield 3 on .co.uk has now been exchanged with the regular edition - and still at a cool price :p
 
Another little bump to this to let people know the Riddler has taken over our site! With Batman: Arkham City being at such a crazy price he has come in and riddled us with his own ideas!

We might be giving away some games via our social media today! :D
 
Everyone, be glad that you didn't get the BF3: LE... I just had the worst customer service experience ever. The guy I was assigned took an average of about 6 minutes to respond to every one of my messages, and in the end didn't help me out at all... The customer service is laughable at best, great game, but a really crappy company.

Also, the browser-based server/community browser is frustrating and ugly. Why couldn't they just let us start the game up? Why when I click on the game do I have to be directed to my internet browser?

Crappy, crappy way to handle a fantastic game... I'd definitely wait it out for another 2 months for the kinks to be worked out. Hopefully by then the browser integration will be done away with...

So far I've have problems with being disconnected every 5 minutes from a server that I join, found out it was a conflict between the game and Network Discovery. Now I can't join a game at all because I Alt+F4 to get out of the game once... A big headache to say the least.

Sorry for the off-topic flame, was hoping to give a forewarning to future buyers of the game.
 
New 10% code SERIO-USSAV-INGS7 active until Friday at noon. I assume that time is GMT as per the earlier post so for EDT that would be 7am Friday.

Hey rybrad - got there before me! Touché!

Yep the voucher will end at noon GMT Friday - and works on most products, the only ones it won't work on are FM2012, Batman, and (if applicable) Battlefield 3. The reason for this is that current discounts prohibit us from offering any lower prices!

Any queries just let me know :D

I understand prices are bound to change. What I don't understand is how the lower price is advertised on the front page for nearly 24 hours after the price was raised.

Further, what's more frustrating is that it took 4 days to get any sort of response, and its been 5 days since with no response from "Leeroy".

At this point the game has already been released, and I've already purchased it elsewhere. I don't expect or want GMG to give me the game at the price they advertised, anymore. I would just hope that in the future that if the site claims a product is a certain price, that they would honor said price, and that customer service (especially if they take so long to respond) could put more effort in than basically just saying too bad.
 
Anyone know if GMG will send out Steam Keys early for Sonic Generations? I have it ordered from GMG and well my connection is shitty so I want to download ASAP.

People who have purchased today are getting keys sent to them immediately. I imagine pre-order keys shouldn't be far off.

Hopefully soon, I want to get on the download ASAP because this will take forever on my connection and I really want to play :cry:
 
I know it's not that important, and in the grand scheme of things doesn't make much of a difference. But it just blows my mind that GMG would send out keys to people buying the game today, but not people who preordered a couple weeks ago. They're basically telling us to wait to spend our money next time.

Yeah that is not right. I mean I wouldn't be so annoyed except for the fact that my connection sucks. If I had my key right now, I might be good to play when it unlocks. If I get my key tomorrow morning, I would expect maybe Friday in the afternoon at the earliest, and that's a maybe. I preordered back on October 25th. Yes it's only a few hours, but I need to basically play the shit out of this game before Skyrim, lol.
