Either expired or only for US/CAN users

I jumped on this yesterday - it would be surprising if only for North America (previous Origin free game offers were for everywhere BUT North America). It's only the second free game offer I've ever jumped on from Origin.

^ does it let you access it from origin itself?

The normal website wouldn't work for me (us), but it works in origin client browser.

thanks for letting us know about this :D Gonna check it out.

I'll try ti through the client, Thanks for the tip

I jumped on this yesterday - it would be surprising if only for North America (previous Origin free game offers were for everywhere BUT North America). It's only the second free game offer I've ever jumped on from Origin.

Perhaps I am thinking of deals/specials which are usually US/CAN only.

While I am here:

Amazon Prototype pack: $9.99

Steam keys if you select Steam DRM

  • Prototype
  • Prototype 2
  • Prototype 2: Radnet DLC Pack

Anyone from the US willing to buy this for me if I Paypal them the money? I can't buy digital download games on Amazon from Canada.

I found this on Slickdeals

GreenManGaming.com has Hitman Absolution: Professional Edition Pre-Order (PC Digital Download) for $44.99 - 35% off voucher code GMG35-FGR37-COY0B = $29.25. Thanks Genocidal

Note: Game activates on Steam. Game will be released on 11/20/12

Battlefield 3 is $12 right now (for today only).

Seems like another US exclusive deal. It seems to be $24.99 for those of us here in Aus. I don't know how online retailers justify these price discrepancies for digital content.

Right now at GamersGate you can get Mount & Blade: Warband for $9.98 (50% off). (The entire series is on-sale, but this one is the only one really worth picking up.)

I highly recommend this game. The mods for it are outstanding as well.

Also want to mention, this game has a pretty steep learning curve, but once you get the hang of it you will have a blast. (If medieval fighting and conquering the world allures you.)

Humble THQ Bundle: 1$ minimum for 6 THQ games plus a varying value (5.63 as of this posting) for Saint's Row the Third: http://www.humblebundle.com/.

Yes - you can access AND download it via Origin (that is how i did it) - the deal is ongoing.

    • If you don't care to read what I said, then you prove my point. Maybe written media is beyond your attention span. Titles are not summaries my friend.
    • Nobody asked... in fact, I said "I don't care about political leanings"  
    • TLDR. Here is a far better title (just a basic example): Windows 11 26H2 to allow disabling Web search results
    • Restore will get my vote, only if to see if things are any different, doubt it though but Labour and Conservatives too out of touch and same thing over and over and over…, Lib Dem who?
    • There is nothing wrong with this title. You have completely missed the plot when it comes to "clickbait." The issue was never that a title tries to entice you to click, that is how titles have worked for over 100 years. The issue is when the title subverts expectations, getting you to click expecting something that isn't there. The classic clickbait example is "Boyfriend caught cheating, what happens next will shock you," then what happened next is the girlfriend was upset...which is probably the least shocking outcome imaginable. If sounds like what you want is for the titles to be a collection of 10-word summaries that you can skim, get the just of the story, and only click if you want more details. That is not, never has been, and never will be what titles are. You can go all the way back to print newspapers during the great depression and see the same thing. The newspaper was locked in a vending machine, all you can see is the headline, you choose to put in 5¢ to buy the paper and read the rest if you want. Those headlines were written in a way to sell the paper, not just to provide a summery. Here are two actual headlines from that time, "Wall Street Lays an Egg," or "Stocks Hit Bottom?" Maybe you'd say something like "it was wrong then and it's still wrong now." Okay, fine opinion to have, but it isn't like Neowin is doing something unjurnalistic, they are just following the age-old standards for written media.
