So apparently there's currently a coupon for the Ubisoft Store which will give you 10 Euros off which means you can buy a single 10 Euro game for free.  The code is UBIPGW10 .

Mad Riders
Babel Rising+DLC
R.U.S.E.
Bloody
Good Time
Zeit2
Shoot Many Robots

All work on Steam, there might be more. 

Just thought I'd bring it to attention. I can't use the site since the promo doesn't work for my region nor is there any game in the Australian Ubisoft store under 10 dollars that activates on Steam, the wankers. >_>

Alright, free game.  Is it worth that price?  Opinions wanted!

Took me ~30 seconds to register to my account. Will hopefully add a few bucks to Steam Calculator's assessment of said account. 1 in 10000 chance I'll someday have it recommended as a brilliant game, and will already own it.

I guess that makes it worthwhile?  ;)

Well, at that rate, you're spending 83 hours and 20 minutes registering to games, per every brilliant game you find, and that's just for a 30 second registering process, you're not counting time spent playing a game and realizing it's toss.

So statistically, probably not. :P

I can attest that R.U.S.E. and Shoot Many Robots are both worth a play, especially for the price of free.

Ubisoft store has all kinds of different prices for different regions. I know R.U.S.E. under 10 euros in Italy for example.

Who said anything about playing it?  :P

Sadly, it doesn't currently show up on the Steam Calculator. But hopefully, once the game is no longer free, I'll be credited a few extra dollars on a completely meaningless statistic! That's gotta be worth 30 seconds.

As someone who spent about 3 hours into the game, let me say this.

THE GAME LIESSSSSS!!!!!!  >:(

It's 100% Solitaire puzzle and 0% Pokemon.

So I "bought" shoot many robots, and I've got the e-mail, invoice, and stuff.

I don't have any keys or any "download" button, all I have is this

Processing serial number or unlock code.

Did they run out of keys?

I got Faerie solitaire as part of another one of their giveaways. It's in my "play to waste 5-10 minutes" pile. I've apparently racked up 9 hours on it over a few months... it's not bad. But it is basically solitaire with a few extra rules thrown in (must clear stack A to use anything in stack B, and the like). I'd consider it worth the price of "free".

And then, they will be weaponized. Like everything in this game, from kittens to babies, everything is a potential device of murder.
So if baseless speculation is all we have, we might as well treat it like fact.

GTA IV and its add-on are 75% off. I've heard it's a pretty fun game.

Towns is now available, is 20% off for launch, and is the 4th highest-selling game at the moment.

Bad thing about GTAIV: Windows Live is REQUIRED. You can't even save if you aren't signed in.

This may be a dealbreaker for some, not such a big deal for others.

I never really noticed anything about Live when playing GTAIV.
Although now I think about it, part of the laggy gameplay might be because of Live.

All I now is that I couldn't save without creating and signing in to a Live account. It just kicked me out of bed, and when I came back the next day I had to start all over (thankfully I was not very far).

I automatically signed in Live. I guess I created an account earlier or so.
