xgfx Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 Monkey Island: Special Edition: 800 MS points on XBLA, and $9.99 on Steam for PC. Not shabby, eh?3 minutes ago from web They're also giving away gift codes for all of the rereleases on steam!
parabolee Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 Awesome. Gotta say I CALLED IT! I said it would be $10 and most people said I was wrong.
xgfx Posted July 9, 2009 Author Posted July 9, 2009 i'm super happy as i just happen to have 800 ms points on my account, whoop! still.. that is a bargain! I would happily pay upto £15 i think.
Jeff Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 Very happy with the pricing. Makes sense compared to the $5 for the original adventure games on Steam. Figures they give away codes when everyone is at work. :/
Kenko Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 That probably means 8.99€ in EU and £6.99 in UK, because that's the conversion of $9.99 on Republic Commando.
QueZTone Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 that seems odd, it should be 7.20 euros according to http://money.cnn.com/data/currencies/converter/index.html
Kenko Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 Yeah I know, but Valve probably infected them with their stupid conversions.
Scapetti Posted July 10, 2009 Posted July 10, 2009 Awesome. Gotta say I CALLED IT! I said it would be $10 and most people said I was wrong. No... I CALLED IT!!! xP Also, what do people think about the XBLA pricing? I said 800 seemed reasonable, who agrees or thinks differently?
ThunderPeel2001 Posted July 10, 2009 Posted July 10, 2009 Absolute bargain... but what does "giving away gift codes for all of the rereleases on steam" mean??
xgfx Posted July 10, 2009 Author Posted July 10, 2009 it means this: Occasionally, via the Lucasarts twitter they are posting 'product activation codes' for Steam. If you put these into steam they will give you free access to whatever the code was for. The last one was for all of the 4 adventures games they have re-released. Once you've put the code in once, the game or games are yours forever! free!

Thrik Posted July 10, 2009 Posted July 10, 2009 I'd imagine they just work for the first person to enter the code, going off the way Steam usually works.
xgfx Posted July 10, 2009 Author Posted July 10, 2009 yes, i neglected to mention that, sorry! good hunting!
ThunderPeel2001 Posted July 10, 2009 Posted July 10, 2009 OMG! Wow, I'd love to win that. So, what's the other digital distribution places besides Steam? I want to be able to hack this
Thrik Posted July 10, 2009 Posted July 10, 2009 Don't think there any (as yet, but possibly permanently).
VoodooFX Posted July 10, 2009 Posted July 10, 2009 This is truly great price, I would have gladly paid up to 20$ for it. But as I've already said, I'm getting another one as gift for my friend's birthday
