Orgin had this promo code they emailed to users that let them get a free game that is under 20 dollars, however they made a mistake and didn't limit the amount of games you can use it for.

Cheers

Heres the code
OS3874XVC, the code is not tied to individual accounts, anyone with an account can use it

down now - http://www.theregister.co.uk/2012/10/15/ea_free_games_after_discount_code_goes_viral/ it will work for one game but you can no longer go full fat ass and download everything

[pinn3r]

i don't think it works anymore =(
i got one game free; tried the second one but didn't work

[van19]

It only works for PC games ? It wont work for any PS3 Games.

[kunoman1]

PC games only, code still works

[kunoman1]

It worked!

[pinn3r]

^ shit nvm LOL just found out you gotta make multiple accounts for this

thanks for sharin dawg :fullofwin:

[dyan]

How does making multiple accounts get it to 1 account?

[Spartacus]

CODE not working =(


edit: works now!

[dyan]

Still working lol

[Fafine]

doesnt for me trying to get l4d2

[kunoman1]

How does making multiple accounts get it to 1 account?

It doesn't it means that one account will have some games and the other account will have other free games, I just added everything to cart on my one account. Just be wary that they will realize their mistake soon and shut it all down

[kunoman1]

doesnt for me trying to get l4d2

It doesn't apply to any valve game (steam) so basically Left for dead 1 and 2, counter strike etc

[jeedee]

doesnt for me trying to get l4d2

L4D2 isn't made by EA lol...

[Fafine]

noobed it

[TOS'd]

EDIT: still works

[kunoman1]

Appears to have been patched up already. Only got one game. Got greedy and put in a bunch of games in shoppingcart, then website crashed.

Try the orgin online site instead of the program, if that doesn't work then its been fixed

[TOS'd]

EDIT: still works

[dyan]

still working.

[TOS'd]

how D:

nm works on my other browser, lol

[TOS'd]

okay, NOW it is officially over. says invalid promo code when you put in the code.

at least I got two games..

[Retrac]

Got one through but its being processed... :okay:

[FN-2199]

Awesome! Got NFSHP, Dragon Age and Burnout Paradise.

[kunoman1]

Well was fun while it lasted, good luck downloading everybody its going to be super slow...also I managed to get 8 :ahwow:

lets hope this happens for steam next

[Purely]

Got Bad Company 2 Vietnam and Shift Unleashed

[Sushi604]

Was able to score NFS Shift 1 & 2... its too bad I couldn't score more. Pretty sure I'm going to lose one of those games in the near future when EA does a sweep on accounts that didn't purchase the game properly.

[danned]

invalid promo code...............

[bluejays]

It's still working for me

[ForeverYours]

Still working for me... just picked up Burnout Paradise even though I'll never play it lmao

Free stuff :fullofwin:

[Neva]

just picked up dead space 1 and 2 :fullofwin:

[kunoman1]

Apparently codes still working guys, persistance is key

[Sky_High]

Code doesn't seem to work anymore :okay:

[twitchyzero]

holy fuck to the people downloading 10 games
i hope you get banned...might as well just pirate.

I downloaded 2 and already felt a little guilty
oh wait on the 2nd thought..this EA which fucking killed good devs like bioware and dice

nm carry on :lol

[danned]

probably area location differential....that's why my code is invalid

[JACKED]

im assuming they fixed it by now, but if not I'm getting invalid anyways. too bad I didnt see this shit yesterday

[ae101]

sorry but not quite sure how this works as i cant seem to fine a way to DL the games on EA (could be the fact that im in china & there a regional lock)

" Even so, EA's response to the mixup was, at least at first glance, very cool and a solid PR move, as it promised to honor all sales made with the coupon code, no questions asked."

Wouldn't surprise me if it was done on purpose just to increase their user base. Their Origin system has been pretty poorly received ever since it launched. And in the end of the day, what did they really lose? A bunch of digital downloads but a huge increase in users. :fullofwin:

[kunoman1]

Yea digital copies are not tangiable unlike the actual CD cases, I could see EA being upset if their retailers gave out all their games under 20 dollars for free
