Title: Metro Last Light for $0.01
Post by: Lantyssa on July 11, 2013, 07:11:06 PM
You can get this for practically free, at least at the moment.  It does give you a Steam Key:  offer from Best Buy (http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Deep+Silver+-+Metro%3A+Last+Light+%28Digital+Download%29/9592148.p;jsessionid=F5E96C53AEC0A1A2F327A88E7A3C03A1.bbolsp-app01-151?id=1219046650885&skuId=9592148&st=Metro%20Last%20Light&cp=1&lp=1)

Maybe available elsewhere.  I can confirm it works for now.

Good find, thanks. Never played the first one and wouldn't have picked this up either, but for a penny I might give it a shot one day.

How long did it take you to get your key in an email?

It's an interesting mistake, I got a confirmation email saying that another email would come with the key to redeem with Nvidia. The order hasn't been canceled on the order status page, and the one penny hasn't been returned yet. I am curious to see how this will play out. I'm not going to be all angry if I don't get my code, but it will be cool if they make good on their mistake.

The roommate had his order cancelled, even though he put it in before me.  Guess I got lucky.

Order cancelled, no e-mails, no explanation.
On the upside, now my e-mail and credit card info is in their database as a result of this too-good-to-be-true offer, so value achieved.  :grin:

Pennilenko's e-mail mentioned Nvidia, I wonder if this was supposed to tie into card sales?

Yes.  The email received sent me to Nvidia's site and I about three pages in I saw something about a free game with a GTX660.  Somebody done goofed.

Yep, they finally did the big letter to everyone.

Ah, well. Bastards nabbed a ton of cc info.
