Keep in mind though, Bad Company 2 I believe was one of the first for that Online Pass jazz. Great price, I admit...but the Online Pass probably does not work if it is included at all.

Re: Amazon Video Game Deal Thread .

Amazon Downloads has Dungeon Seige III for $4.99. Activates on Steam (where it's currently $49.99). Assuming you have a 360 gamepad to play it on, it's a nice looking hack and slash and a steal at that price for such a recent game. Runs at a fixed 60 FPS Wwith the settings maxed on my older graphics card, so it doesn't seem to need a super rig to run well. Demo available as well.

I Google searched, but couldn't find this thread. So I'll just paste what I posted in the VG deals thread:

Sadly, from what I've read, the PC version of Arkham City is glitchy as hell.

Re: Amazon Video Game Deal Thread .

Today's deals are all Assassin's Creed related (well, not the gold box deals).

Some highlights:

Assassin's Creed Brotherhood: $19.99
Assassin's Creed Revelations: $35.99

I bit on Brotherhood for that price, even though I'm not supposed to buy any more games before Xmas.

DX9 is fine now. I also think DX11 is way better as well, but I haven't tried it since the patch.

Re: Amazon Video Game Deal Thread .

I haven't had any issues with the PC version of Arkham City on DX9 after ~7 hours of play. No crashes or anything. Haven't even bothered with DX11 because of performance, but the game still looks amazing.

If you have a capable machine, you should try DX11 again, I heard it's running pretty good now.

Really. Well then I may just bite on the PC version of Arkham City after all.

I've heard otherwise, performance still stinks.

DX9 looks fantastic already though, IMO. Although playing at 2560x1440 helps

Without pre-patch numbers, I'm going to just say they are wrong in that performance didn't change for DX11 after the patch. ~40FPS sounds pretty good at max settings with DX11, and there is no way anyone was seeing a frame rate that high before the patch.

They did the same benchmarks pre-patch in another article last week.

Well, everything I've read from actual end users is that things are now playable with DX11 on both Nvidia and AMD. Where as before hand it was hitching so badly that it was unplayable.

Also Kinect Sports 1 & 2, Dance Central 1 & 2, and Kinectimals - Now with Bears

Note that for Kinectimals - Now with Bears, you have to make sure you select Amazon as the seller.
