So last week it was TWD Season One. It's now been followed by Season Two (happy days!).
So, what is Twitch Prime?
Twitch Prime is a premium experience on Twitch that is included with an Amazon Prime membership. Twitch Prime includes free games and exclusive in-game content, a free channel subscription every 30 days to be used on any Partnered channel, ad-free viewing on Twitch, exclusive emotes, and chat badge.
The latest addition to the loot is The Walking Dead Season Two.

I signed up for a free trial with Amazon Prime..then forgot to cancel before the trial period ended :disappointed:. These bonus games certainly help to take the sting out of it though!

No you don't have to subscribe to see the actual content but you do get a few extras if you do subscribe. These extras vary from streamer to streamer but usually emotes in the channel chat, subscriber badges, subscriber only giveaways or competitions, sub games with streamer.

Thanks so much. Could I ask one more thing? Do you have to subscribe to a streamer to see their content? I'm just not familiar with Twitch. Thank you.

I think it's certainly worth getting as you get all the other benefits of Amazon prime for effectively £19pa. It certainly makes sense for people that are paying a £5 a month sub to twitch every month anyway. You have to remember to manually renew your Twitch prime sub with whatever streamer you're subbing too every month as it doesn't renew automatically however that only takes a couple of clicks on the twitch sub page.

I pay a sub for my DS to watch a streamer on twitch. So am I correct in thinking getting Amazon/Twitch Prime would be better value?
Thanks

Just signed up for a month of Prime as it was the same cost of express delivery. Nice little benefit.

May be off topic, but I got a chance to go through the first two episodes of Season 3 and Telltale have really raised the bar. Some moments that will really blow your mind.
This deal is well worth it if you haven't played any of the series yet.

I missed S1 on PS+ but got S2, looks like our luck is mirrored :smiley:.

Damn. Missed it. I think I have that on the PS4 or Xbox though as it was away free on there as well.

It's been running since Twitchcon which was right at the end of September this year. If you are a viewer of Twitch and like to support the streamers with a sub it works very well. A twitch sub with uk vat is $5.99pm or £4.96pm so there is £60 back of your £79 already. It also gives you ad free viewing on Twitch as well which you had to pay for previously. As for the games that have offered I haven't paid much attention as I think a few of them have been Moba type games. There was some cool Watchdogs 2 Twitch skins that were given but I'd say Walking dead series 2 is the first decent thing that's been given out.

Do I have to install the twitch app to computer? Do they give a lot of free games as won't bother for just this
I suppose getting Season 1 is a no go now? Also, how long has this Amazon/Twitch thing been running? and have we missed out on anything decent before the Walking Dead series?

Twitch prime is excellent for those of us with twitch subs however I wish they'd give some of these games away on console instead of PC. Strangely for some reason though it says you get a discount on season 3 as well and when you click the link it takes you straight to the PS4 page.

Is it redeemable on Steam?

Yup I cancelled it there now (after I got TWD S2 of course :wink: ), it showed the exact amount I'll be refunded. I have to say it's a brilliant policy!

In fact, can't you login to your account to cancel section? It should tell you there and then the expected refund.

Aaaaand the sting is back :smiley:. That's a bizarrely forgiving policy!

The free stuff has actually been pretty decent for twitch prime, I guess I wasn't expecting too much apart from the free sub. Heat added bud.
