Should redirect to your region.

That might be a good reason to try Origin client again.

The first and only time i used it to buy a game the game was not added to my games list. After i downloaded and installed the game i had to start it outside of the client and as far as the client goes there was no trace of me buying the game.

Edit: Ok i found it on the site but its $20.

Use the link in OP ?

[Guest xiphi]

The link just redirects to the home page.

[firey]

confirmed, I tried it and it took me to home page. Upon finding Crysis it told me it was 20$

[The Laughing Man]

Nice find, Already have a copy on steam and origin though.

It appears that is for US only.

I live outside the US and the link redirected me to the front page... but using a proxy I was able to "see" the special ;)

UK works too

UK works too

I live in the Dominican Republic and I had to use the proxy -- so I guess is limited to a "selected set of countries"...

Origin isnt that bad. it's not nearly as polished as Steam, but a lot younger. I bought some DLC through Origin recently, and it was painless.

[The Dark Knight]

Looks like it's over. I just connected via a US VPN and checked, it lists it at $20 now. :(

Everyone and their mother has a game store with a mandatory application that has to run while gaming.

Anywho, the offer I get is both Crysis games for 5 Euro each.

[Livin in a box]

Haha ?5 each in the UK.

UK site is listing it for ?5.

The link brings me to the home page. Can't even find anything but Crisis 3 when searching. It seems every time I try something with Origin it's a bad experience.

[compl3x]

Works for the Aus store.

[Grinch]

By use of a proxy I managed to get to the checkout but it wanted billing information, PayPal and my Debit Card both didn't like the fact that my only country options were AU and New Zealand. :s

its a dollar in the us and 5 quid (8$) here in the uk, what a swizz you can buy it for that in the bargain bins :(

[neo1911]

Not for India. Anyway it sells for $ 5-6 here.

[Semtex]

Dammit, in Germany 10? :p

I just re-installed Origin but the game is 5$ ... well since i played it already i'll pass. For 1$ it would have been interesting to replay the game before Crysis 3 but not at 5$.

Origin improved but the road to Steam is still really really long. At least looks like they are working on it. Also 113MB of ram you got to be kidding me. Steam takes 25MB only close to 5 times less ...

At least the game i bought is now showing in my games list. The first time i tried Origin the game i bought was not even showing in my games list that was really fail.

They really need to improve the information page for the games. No achivements. No trailers. Few screenshots. No linked articles. No news. There's like nothing but a short marketing description of the game. It's bad when you need to visit the games web site before making a decision.
