Assassin’s Creed is the next-gen game developed by Ubisoft Montreal that will redefine the action genre. While other games claim to be next-gen with impressive graphics and physics, Assassin’s Creed merges technology, game design, theme, and emotions into a world where you instigate chaos and become a vulnerable, yet powerful, agent of change. The setting is 1191 AD. The Third Crusade is tearing the Holy Land apart. You, Altair, intend to stop the hostilities by suppressing both sides of the conflict.

That just takes me to the store front - is this a re-release or something?

I picked it up for $0 and got a key, but it's still listed as 'preorder' when I look it up so I suspect I have to contact support...who knows if they'll honor it or not.

^ Funny, I did not get a key, it still shows Processing serial number or unlock code. It has been almost a day...

Wait. So they screwed up and instead of honoring their screw up they just knock-off 25%?

Is this after the purchase was made?

You'll probably find in their terms they are well within their rights to do it.
If they sent you the item and then they admit they made the mistake, then you don't have to return it.

That is what I meant: if the deal was done, the transaction processed. If you purchased it for the "free" price then it should be yours.

*shrug* I find it hard to care. I have little interest in replaying old AC games, it'd take too long to go through them all.

Definately looking forward to AC3 and Blacklist though.

Technically, at least from a UK law perspective, the deal isn't 'done' until it's been fulfilled by both sides. If you buy something and they ship it, then that's a contract. Until it's shipped however, no such contract exists in most cases.

Yeah. One side overwhelmingly benefits from that arrangement.

I assume if they took money for the product it'd be a different story, but they didn't.
