Why the hell do I need an Xbox Live account to buy a PC game? I'm too lazy to go through all the hassles, but this would've been a great deal since I loved the first AoE.

"Due to the overwhelming success of the Age of Empires III sale, we have temporarily run out of keys to unlock the game. You can still buy the game at this amazing price and you will get/see a key in the next week. When new keys are added to the system you will be auto-assigned a key, there is no need to call support or take any other action from your end. We will post here on the forums when the keys are available and the next time you click 'View Game Keys' for the game you should be assigned one.


Thank you for your patience and we hope you enjoy the game."

Wow. I didn't even know the rest of those deals were going on earlier this week. How come no one told me? Next time this happens, I expect a phone call.

I don't think they were ten cents though. Does anyone know the price they were by any chance?

Borderlands was $10 (normally $20) and Bioshock was $2 (normally $10), but other than that I don't know.

Notice anything unusual about this screenshot?

EDIT: Just read Chanser's post there... How stupid, I bought it way before they made that announcement, I should have gotten a damned key

I even deleted my download and redownloading it since I thought my installer was borked. What a waste of time
