I believe they accept Paypal. Can you use that?

The EA Store CHARGES ME IN EUROS.

Edit: Wait, no, looks like they're now showing prices in USD...

Use a US based proxy and use that to buy from the site.

Does ME1 activate on EADM?

Afraid not.

Darn, my usual suspects aren't online. Is there a US (or other low $) who's willing to help me out with getting 1 and 2? I can pay up front with paypal or a 9.99 + 5.99 or 3x5.99 gog if wanted :)

Ah, okay, thanks. Going to skip it probably. Still have quite a few games to finish before buying anything else. :)

Impulse Weekend Buys:

Recettear for 50% off
Ditto for The Guild 2 + expansions

Any thoughts on these?

I'll do it...paypal me the money and i'll buy em for you once it clears(usually a day or two.)

Recettear is a great little indie game if you like the idea of running an item shop for a change and doing a bit of relatively simple dungeon crawling (but fun!)

The Guild 2 'complete' is fake. The only game you need in the series is the last one, the rest will be obsolete. I dislike those kinds of packages.

Thanks but the sale only lasts one day :) and why would paypal not be instant?

...which isn't very helpful on a 24h deal.

Can you use paypal to buy from steam? I only have paypal not the paypal card so OI dunno if one could use just a paypal account on steam or not. If you can't do it that way on Steam then i'd have to wait for my bank account to transfer the money over so I could then use my debit card hooked to that bank account to buy the games.....which usually takes a day or two.

Edit: I have enough now to buy at least the first game....I could do that at least, and you could paypal me the money and I could wait for that to clear at least while still sending you the game the same time.

Recettear is unique, charming and addictive. High anime level though, but at least the (very annoying) voices out of combat can be disabled. Dungeon crawling is fun, but the real meat and potatoes of the game is in the "be a filthy, filthy lucre-obsessed shopkeep" segments.

On the other hand I loved the Torneko part of Dragon Quest IV, so a full game dedicated to being a RPG shopkeep was pretty fun.

It did for me and a few others. Check the EADM thread I made recently. Only one person wasn't able to register it for some reason.

Must not succumb to hoarder mindset...
Must not buy Mass Effect 2...
Has no money...
Hasn't beaten first one yet...
