I've been wanting Europa Universailis III, but I sadly never had the money to buy it. Now that I found the free edition, I'll certainly be downloading it!

Eh. It's still not as drastic as Toys R Us selling Diablo 3 for 11 bucks, and Diablo 2 for 20 bucks last year.
But it warms my heart to see such anyway.

If you reverse the two headline prices... 5imCity for Free and EUIII for $32... EUIII would still be the better deal of the two.

Seriously? To download a game free I still have to post the billing info? GOG didnt needed that shit when they handed out Duke Nukem 3D.

GTA V at 59$ with 1600MS (20$) points doesnt look bad (there are some XBLA things that I am interested, and it does cover the possible DLC), although... it all depends in how fast it will drop the price. I usually only buy at the price of 25? or lower but since this is GTA V I kind of doubt that it will drop all that much even after a year.

yeah, was about to say that you'd have to pay me to play that EAMaxisborg creation after seeing some of the...more interesting AI decisions

Probably a stupid question but don't you have to pay a fee to be a member of Gamefly? Or is that only if you subscribe to their mailing service or whatever?
I'm interested in a free game but I don't wanna have to pay a monthly fee just for it.

/raises hand

*looks around*

...what? It's EA, for crying out loud. Why should I believe they'd ever lower prices on anything? They've even openly admitted they think the practice is "IP devaluation", so this price cut actually IS surprising.

It's devalued because they are going to sell you a butt load of DLC Down the road. Ironically. If they were to sell Simcity for 10 dollars and then come out with tons of DLC a lot of people wouldn't have a problem with it I would wager.

Protip- France is the final boss of EU3, cross them at your peril. Also, don't invade Russia and don't irritate the Pope or the Holy Roman Emperor.

Play as France, Russia and the HRE, got it.

If you're new to it, I'd play as England or Castille. England because the AI sucks at naval invasions and Castille because the only power around that can seriously threaten you is France, so stay on their good side and you're set :)

Guess I'll be skipping on this one, not going to give my payment details around at random...

Why the hell do they need my credit card anyway for a free purchase?

I found playing as Frankfurt and just balancing inflation while using spies to cause worldwide bankruptcies and then creating trade monopolies by the 15th century and buying a piece of greenland to launch a Canadian colonization, and then invade the indians and take over all of America and switch the capital to there inorder to create "Empire Awesome" and moving on to World-domination works brilliantly. Not even because I like Frankfurt, it was merely a means to an end.

note: Ulm also works.

Ehh.. It'll take much more than a small price drop to convince me to give EA anything but contempt for the new SimCity.

How'd you manage that? I check I want to use my paypal, and still they badger me for my card number.

Not sure. The Paypal account must hold that information or something.
