It's a good thing I wasn't planning on getting the holiday bundle until next year probably. Maybe next year I'll have the ability to not support Ubisoft.

Ubisoft... Fuck! D=

Basically they are bundling games that won't work properly at all on pc or will have the graphics options gutted from the complete game. Nice move Nvidia. It won't stop me from selling the codes to get a nice discount on the card.

Seen it the other day also looks like tigerdirect jumped the gun and leaked the holiday bundle when added to cart the otherday it wouldn't let you choose the game yet.

Not a fucking chance, I might have to break down and go with AMD on this one so I can get star citizen, too bad Nvidia seems to have their head up their asses all of a sudden.

How many Ubisoft games have I played and liked? Hmm... Ummm... Zero! That's how many. I've stopped giving this trash company chances.

Best thing about these deals is getting games cheap when people sell their codes. I hope ACUnity and FC4 have decent PC versions so I can get them cheaply.

NVIDIA was giving out $150 worth of things in P2W games (Hawken, World of Tanks and I forgot the other one) whilst AMD was giving out Crysis 3, Bioshock Infinite, Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon and another game that I forgot.

The other game was Planetside 2, which has a special place in my heart.

That's the exact bundle I got with my 650 TI Boost SC.

Bioshock Infinite is probably one of the best games I have ever played. Such, such a beautiful city... story.... elliza- what?

 Yep, plus it isn't even available in Australia and some other countries..... We aussies always get fucked over like this, we have to pay an extra $280 just for a reference 980 and we don't even get these sort of bundle deals???? Disgusting.

I don't think you understand what the word 'literally' means, or how those bundles work.

 

Literally means: in an exact manner. Nvidia as a company is not literally pulling their pants down and taking a crap on your head.

 

Secondly, with a percentage of your money that would otherwise be paid for the video card, will be going to Ubisoft for the game. Why would Ubisoft give out free copies like that? You think the money hungry company that milks it's games are going to give them out for free with a video card bundle? Lul. If I'm wrong, Nvidia must be paying for it, then. So either way, your money is still going toward Ubisoft. You don't win.

 

You should also understand that prices and deals change very often. You sound like someone walking into a retail store during a sale on <item A> and claim you bought <item A> <x amount> of days ago and you want compensation. That's not how it works, mate.

what if you already bought the card. 

Space Journal #1: So Apparently i  was dropped on the moon like i'm a mars rover, in a matter of hours i have found the transformers on the dark side of the moon. Turns out its not that dark since dem robots are filled with lights, i waved hi to the Russians on the space station, turns out all those stories about space finding humans instead of the other way around is true(soviet Russia joke). They threw me some Heineken beer and I've been sitting staring at the people of this forum and earth since.

How about those $529+ 970's that's frustrating enough then we don't even get the bundled games (Nvidia fan) but I bought a 280x for my second pc because at least we get the never settle bundles and I wanted that AMD Mustang Omega :-) rather then upgrading from my 770 and giving that to my second pc.
