Posts Tagged ‘pre-order’

Some angry Steam user posted a very interesting message on the official Steam Forums. He wanted a refund for his pre-order of Aliens vs Predator game (for whatever reason, you can always refund a pre-order). But he bought the game with a discounted game Psychonauts ($2 at a time).

What’s wrong you may think? Well, according to Steam Support you can’t refund only one game if you put them both in the shopping cart. And now the guy had to “give back” (and get back the $2 of course) Psychonauts in order to get his money for AvP back.

After that he wanted a refund for his pre-ordered copy of  Battlefield Bad Company 2. I wonder why?

Whats’s our point? Watch out there kids, don’t get pre-orders with regular games!

PS Our favorite moderators already closed the topic.

Right now you can pre-purchase this RPG game on Steam. The designer team is composed of lots of designers, project leads of Diablo, Diablo II, Mythos and Fate. So that sounds pretty good, let’s butcher the prices

Torchlight

US: $19.99 $17.99

UK: £14.99 £13.49 (23% higher than US)

EU: 15.99€ 14.39€ (19% higher than US)

Painkiller: Resurrection

+ bonus Painkiller: Black Edition + Painkiller: Overdose

US: $29.99 $26.99
UK: £19.99 £17.99 (6% higher)
EU Tier1: 29,99€ 26,99€ (47% higher)

So all you remember nice “Heaven’s got a hitman”-game named Painkiller. Finally there is a sequel (or “addon” if you wish to say it so ). Unfortunately the price is unfair. So if you really-really are a fan and want get your hands on it, go ahead.
PS. Game will be released on 27th Oct.
