Yay. Been meaning to replay DX but didn't feel like grabbing the box.
Plus, I have wanted to replay IW for years now.

Tradewinds: Legends
By the way, what DRM do they use?
"You can download a game as many times as you like, however, the activation code will only unlock the game 3 times. After that, you will need to contact Support with your receipt info for a one-time use code."
I call this an "awesome" DRM. Hell, now I don't know why I bother getting those free game of the week.

My opinion on this is what I've said for the other, less than $5 games - It's a rental. It's not yours.
By the way, the Prince of Persia deals (WW & SoT) from Games for Windows Live required I load a Tages driver and activate online via a company called @ctiv. Anyone know anything about these? Plus I had to enter a serial key. Yuck all around. At least I could copy and paste it.

But that is also the case for all the games you purchase from them. Not only those you get via the promotion.

Ah gawd just got the pack from STEAM :P ... anyone on here that has it from Gamersgate? It lists SecuROM as DRM, does it have to authenticate online or something?
EDIT:Btw this would have been a great opportunity to release it on GOG... but EIDOS doesn't seem ready to make the jump just yet.

That maybe, but you only mentioned the free games. Either way, I personally don't buy any games from them. I mainly get all such games from Big Fish.
Probably because Square Enix are now in control of Eidos and they are most certainly never going to buy into the idea of "no regional restrictions".

Steam have now matched GamersGate's sale on Deus Ex. Deus Ex: IW is also €2.49.

Actually, I asked them about all their games and their main DRM policy, not just the free games (though, probably because of the way I posted it here in this thread, it might have suggested that it is only for the free games).

Maybe I will buy Elemental now but still waiting for Steam to open pre-purchase option for Test Drive: Unlimited 2. Maybe buyers can join the beta as well.
