(PC) Hitman 1st Season AU $21.83, Rise of Tomb Raider AU $20 @ Gamestop, Gears 4 AU $47, Forza Horizon 3 AU $54

770

THIS IS ONLY FOR PC PLATFORM!!!!! PLEASE READ THE WHOLE POST EVEN IF IT'S LONG (IT'S IMPORTANT)!!

Guys, this is HUGE! Apparently http://www.gamestop.com in U.S. has a sale on:

(1) Hitman Intro Pack + upgrade pack (which is equal to the complete first season pack)

(2) Rise of the Tomb Raider (steam version),

(3) Forza Horizon 3 (redeem the code in Microsoft Appstore)

(4) Gears of War 4 (again, redeem the code in Microsoft Appstore)

conversions are done by google, the amount charged to your credit card/bank account/paypal might be more than what I wrote

The thing is, in order to get the this key, you need a U.S Address and apparently according to r/gamedeals subreddit a lot of people outside of U.S. who attempted to buy it got an error message at their credit card/PayPal checkout. Therefore, this is how I got it to work (I'm using Deus Ex Mankind Divied for example):

  1. Open one of those links above on your mobile web browser (I'm using Google chrome on my android phone). It should redirect you straight to the mobile site, but if it doesn't then just go to http://m.gamespot.com and then search for the name of the game for pc

  2. Add it to cart, tap on checkout

  3. select "Check out with Paypal"

  4. And just go through with the process, paypal will ask you to enter a U.S. address and obviously I used a fake one, this is what I used:

    First Name: Ella

    Last name: Sparks

    Street Address: 2926 Linden Avenue

    City: Orlando

    State: Florida

    Zip Code: 32801

    Phone Number: 4075413423

  5. Continue with the paypal checkout and Confirm the order and that's it!

NOTE:

  • I didn't use VPN
  • I have a standard Australian PayPal account, and no it's not connected to any US bank account in any way

This is exactly how I did it. I managed to buy Hitman last night and got the key this morning. What's important here is that you HAVE to use the mobile browser to go to m.gamestop.com in order for this to work. After the checkout process of PayPal you might have to wait for a few hours/more than a few hours to get your key but just be patient. This method is confirmed working for people in UK/Australia (according to the replies that I've got on this thread https://www.reddit.com/r/GameDeals/comments/5es819/gamestop_… (search for "stanleys2307", that's my user name on reddit, look for my post in the thread and see what people replied me)

Cheers mate, try to do this ASAP because I don't know when the deal is going to be over.

          WAITTT, you WANT tomb raider?? buy it from cdkeys.com, don't buy it from here.

          here here

          If you like cdkeys on facebook they'll send a 5% discount code to your email address which means that the final price will be

          $33.99 - (0.05 X 33.99) = AU $32.2

          That's about US $24, which is almost the same price with what they offered from gamestop. On top of that, you don't have to worry about all the hassles with cdkeys.com, you just have to checkout with paypal and you'll get the steamm key straight away.

        • @blue2609: Yep, Forza Horizon 3 cancelled for me. :( Used your mobile method and everything..

        • @blue2609: I was just after the base version for $20. I'll just keep waiting for a deeper discount again

  • FYI Hitman + First season has been $14.99 direct from Steam before. IsThereAnyDeal

    • +3

      According to someone on Reddit, that may be a bug where it confuses complete season with first episode.

      • This. I've been waiting for a Hitman deal and I've never seen the full game at $15 on Steam.

  • +2

    I can possibly order for anyone who isn't able to.

    • Really? Forza Horizon 3, perchance?

      • +1

        Cannot get it to work. Been successful with Hitman.

        • No problems. Thanks anyway, mate! Appreciate the offer.

    • Me please! I've tried every way I can think of and have had nothing. After the full Hitman. If you can still do so just pm me your PayPal and I'll reimburse straight away. Thank you!

      • Got the codes ready but I cannot PM. Send me a message please :)

        • @boshimaro ,

  • Tried twice and got my order cancelled both times buying RotTR Season Pass.
    Tried mobile & desktop, both through PayPal, using Visa.

  • I got my Steam Keys as soon as I paid (Windows 10 + Chrome + PayPal [Aust.] + ING Bank [Savings]).
    I don't understand at which point the transaction gets "cancelled" and now I'm concerned by peoples comments.

      If you already have the keys, you should be fine.

      • Were you able to get your orders or did you need a hand?

        • Got Hitman and assisted another member. Wasn't successful with Forza when I tried.

  • Anyone know if the upgraded pack (and/or full experience) will include season 2- assuming S2 will go ahead)?

    edit: seems like Season 2 is confirmed. Whats the chance Season 1 will be even cheaper when released?

    • Full experience got renamed Season 1, probably when the next season got green lit. Hitman games always end up in the $5 bin at some point, it's just a matter of when.

  • Can't we just use opera vpn just to be sure?

    • Apparently no use :(

      It got rejected due to credit card address verification process.

      Tried with PayPal credit and 28 degrees cc

      • Woohoo!!! managed to get one. the following is what I have done:
        - transfer (move out) the remaining Paypal credit to my bank account
        - Paid the game using Amex (interesting enough, Paypal leaves it on USD, while 28D converted it to AUD)
        - Got the activation code straight away, once order completed from gamespot URL

        Thanks OP!

  • Not working. Getting an error message saying my details don't match. Used my old faithful.amazon fake USA address. PayPal and cc didn't work. Any ideas?

    • I think they're onto you guys. They know your CC is not a US issued CC, so they won't let you make the purchase. Steam does this also, as does US PSN. Using a VPN and US address won't change it.

      However, did you try paying with AMEX? Some US merchants can't tell that an AU AMEX card is not US issued. US PSN is one example. It's the only CC you can use to purchase direct from US PSN. I don't promise that will work for Gamestop though.

        Didn't work with my AMEX-issued card.

  • someone please help me - i have tried everything but i cant buy the upgrade pack from Europe. i will send the money to your mailadress via paypal first.

    contact me via message or by adding me on steam: http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197970368703

  • Got two copies of Hitman left if anyone still wants the game at $22.
