It was going to happen at some point, can't expect it to just be a standing offer. I guess a lot of people are waiting for BF4 to be added to the gold tier :P

no Tomb Raider? AND it's an AMD title? WUT

 

There's lots of 'AMD titles' this just means it (generally) performs better on an AMD card. It doesn't mean AMD own the rights to the game or anything, they still need to buy the keys.

I expect this offer to be revised soon, with new games being added that are being released in the coming 2 months. :)

No it doesn't mean they perform better. It means AMD helped in the development of the game. That often results in better performance on AMD cards, but the actual label "AMD gaming evolved" has absolutely nothing to do with how well the game runs on AMD cards.

Just wanted to elaborate what "gaming evolved" actually means.

 

So the list looks like this right now:

Gold Tier:

Saints Row 4

Tomb Raider

 

Silver Tier:

Hitman Absolution

DMC Devil May Cry

 

Bronze Tier:

Sleeping Dogs

Deus Ex Human Revolution

FarCry 3

FarCry 3 Blood Dragon

DiRT 3

DiRT Showdown

Sniper Elite V2

 

Silver contains silver plus all bronze games, and gold contains gold + silver + bronze tiers.

They removed Tomb Raider, DMC Devil May Cry, FarCry 3 and DiRT Showdown.

I'd love to have never settle but the most shops in my country don't offer it.

The game on the list that i really wanted was Tomb Raider :(  , have most of the others. Might just go Nvidia now, their holiday bundle is looking really good.

This is to be expected. When AMD and Nvidia make deals for these bundles the games have expiration dates on how long they will be available. Most likely we will see games like Thief and BF4 added coming up soon, possibly Murdered: Soul Suspect as well since that is an AMD Gaming Evolved title.

Oh no....   I saved my never settle reward gold card thing.

What do I do?  Freak out, and redeem the games now, or be patient?

Well, what you do will depend on one thing: Do you want any of the games still offered? It's still a really awesome list of games. If not, then wait and you'll see more games added soon.

 

In either case I'm not sure why people are surprised. They've been saying for weeks that some of the games will be taken off the bundle and even said when.

 

The ONLY reason to save your gold card redemption is if there is an upcoming game that you want that they've said they will add to Gold Tier. If you want a game that's already up there, then just grab it right away.

For Sale: Meraki Bundle

Amazing how upset some get that they have a smaller choice to select their FREE games from. It's still a ridiculous offer and new games will probably be added. 

 

I just want to reiterate that the games are FREE. You buy the graphics card, not the games.

They had only purchased a set number of keys... once exhausted, those games get removed. AMD has changed the never settle bundles, instead of releasing a new batch of specific games every several months. They now issue tier medals to redeem games. This will allow them to add new games, and remove older/sold out games easier than starting an entirely new bundle with a new name. How many variations of naming Never settle, reloaded, forever, etc could they have done before people stopped caring and keeping track?

You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.
Users cannot, and will not securely manage key material. Most users can't and the ones that can, wont.

Ask me about Bitcoin, Litecoin, Crypto-Currencies, and/or Mining them.

no sh*t. I was saying why they would take off the game that performs better on their side.

Sort of sad that some games got removed. Hope that this will mean adding more games to this bundle and making it more amazing. :)
