The promo period to get all 7 games is now over, but Assassin's Creed III is still available for free

How do it claim the games

I just get the notice that between 15 to 18 December you have a chance to claim...

love splinter cell great game

Thanks for posting :smile:

Great deal, missed a few of these over the days.

I missed most of these the first time around, so this came in handy. Playing through Uplay is no big deal for me :smile:

Thank you very much for posting :smile:

You win. I was waiting for...

"I got these games for free earlier this year, and they are giving them to everbody for free, unfair".

But this is so much better...

"they come up with this gimmick, and we are supposed to be grateful? Give me a break"

Claimed!! Thanks!

"wont somebody please that of the children!" always think of those two quotes together :stuck_out_tongue:

Yes - nice one op - have some heat... I missed RayMan :-) :heart_eyes:

No requirement to install GOG Galaxy to play the core of any GOG games. I think it's only required for multiplayer parts of some games. The whole point of GOG is you don't need anything installed or connected to play.

Oh, the inhumanity! :wink:

Imposter!

Stopped at uPlay.

I hope they're not Yahoo accounts (_;)

"You already own all 7 games"...Merry "£$%^&* Christmas. :stuck_out_tongue:

Awesome, thanks Buzz!!!

I'll just play the seven on my account, the 1000 accounts will be flogged on ebay after the promotion ends.

Too lazy to spell lazy too

Maybe if they also start giving us non-Ubisoft games...



Can't speak to personal tastes but pretty much all of them are worth playing. Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time,
Splinter Cell and Beyond Good and Evil are all excellent classics and Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon is a lot of fun.



But what's 'real' though? After all, video games are just digital information, that (since the CD era) has mostly been stored on hard drive anyway, so why not have instant access to every game you own, being able to download/install them quickly (if you have fast internet) with a couple of clicks via an interface that manages your library, connects you to your friends and the wider community and is also a storefront, without ever having to hunt for the right disc? There's only really two reasons you might want a physical copy of a game and that's either a) resale value, if you're planning on reselling a game, which is a moot point with most PC games these days as they need to be activated on Steam and so have no resale value, or b) it's a really nice edition, and most games are just DVDs in a standard DVD case so that only really goes for collector's editions. I'm 'old' too (my first video games were on cassette tape) but I embraced Steam as soon as my internet connection was good enough to make it worthwhile.



Wow, now you've got 7000 games to get through!



Liberation HD (a PS3, 360 and PC game) is a re-release of Liberation (a PS Vita game). It is not Assassin's Creed III, it is a separate, spin-off game, hence the subtitle.

Do i need to pay for uplay or just register and grab these games for free?

The stuff we install to play FREE games :wink:

Thanks man :smile:

Hope you guys all have a great Christmas, too.

Glad they did this as I didn't build my current PC till November, having no PC for so long almost killed me haha, thanks buzz.

Ahhh, had to install the steam like client first, now all games showing.

I have games spread over all these players and not even played one yet!

Oh, well great news for me then - bad for my boss :P

Already downloaded them over the last six months, still very handy to get them all in one go for those who missed them.

Assassin's Creed III and Assassin's Creed III: Liberation are different games. If you have Liberation previously, and you picked up AC3 from this bundle. You have two separate games :smile:

Wikipedia says it is just a re-release?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assassin's_Creed_III:_Liberation

They're not the same game mate.

Oh wow I'm stupid. Had an Assassins Creed Liberation HD key laying around for Uplay and thought might as well use it now I got Uplay for this deal.I now had Assassins Creed III and Assassins Creed Liberation HD in my library....quick google...they are the same game!

One of the hater of Ubisoft, why? how long is a string?
Cannot believe the short memory of the Pc community, after the debacle of 300 giveaway and the subsequent backlash, they come up with this gimmick, and we are supposed to be grateful? Give me a break.

Steam
Origin
Uplay
GoG Galaxy

The stuff we install to play games...

Created 1000 uplay accounts and loaded them with the free games. January looks promising!

ok, signed up and clicked on the games bundle

Congratulations, you’ve claimed the 7 games from the Ubi 30 operation ! As a reward, you gain an exclusive badge you can pin to your profile.

Now what? only 3 games show up on the games menu

kinda **** i came back every month to get it like a peasant. if i waited itd of been handed to me on a plate. ahh well managed to get the one i missed (beyond good and evil) so alls good

Thanks! Amazing bundle of free games!

phew .. I DID forget to grab the freebies, so cheers for that ..

just to update..
looking at ubisoft site via browser i still only show 3 games
loading up uplay shows the lot though

Already had them all but downloaded the bundle cos why not. Thanks.

thanks Matt101101 - my bad for not explaining properly

being *old* my games always came on disk (floppy, then CD then DVD) - if you want I could find a copy of Lemming for PC somewhere in the house, and a few more "classics" - so never really got why folks download stuff and not get a "real" version. Loads of folks I know rave about Steam but it passed me by, the Ubisoft thing looks really interesting/useful though, esp as they give us a bunch of stuff to get started - all for free :smile:

You do know this isn't through Steam? You need to download uPlay, which is sort of like Ubisoft's own version of Steam. People used to hate it (many probably still do...), but personally I've never had a problem with it. :smile:

Thanks Buzz.

Great freebie which I have just taken advantage of.

A very merry Christmas and a happy new year to you and yours.

outstanding - thanks OP

Never got why I might want a Steam account but kind of "get it" now - and so much more fun than the Trainz freebie I couldnt get to work from a couple of days ago

cracking deal. thanks OP

Ubisoft? No, I don't think so.

However, there is the "Games for Gold" thing which is free games each month for Xbox Live Gold subscribers.

Thanks OP, will hopefully remember to grab the one's I missed when I get in from work, or at least before the promotion ends :wink:

Do they ever do this for Xbox

Nice :smile:

Yes, you can and you get to keep the games forever, so there's no time limit as to when you get around to playing them. :smile:

so you can just sign up for free then download these games for free?

Thanks :sunglasses:

yeah i get the same
when i click 'games' i only have 3 of them
hopefully it will refresh later

Obviously it depends what kind of games you enjoy, but in my opinion none of them are bad games. Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon is really good fun and, from what I remember (it's been well over ten years since I last played it) PoP: Sands of Time is a great game too.

Honestly, they're all great games, though some are more dated than others now. A lot of people didn't like AC3 as well, but I didn't mind it. But yeah, there's no real shovelware here, they were all reviewed fairly well I believe. Possibly The Crew had the most mixed reviews, but none said it was outright awful.

Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon gets great reviews from most. Haven't played it yet myself.

which of these are/aren't worth playing?

It tells me that I already have all 7 games, even though I don't.

Yes. I mean, they have a store and everything for games, but sure, it costs nothing to make an account and use the client, just like Steam.

Is uplay free?

Thanks op, i missed put of beyond good aand evil and far cry. :-)

my cup runth over :grin: ta

With free games might see Uplay take over steam :grin:

Thank you! :grin:

Really glad they did this, I missed the first two games :grin:

Well done Ubisoft, you win this round...

anytime, they are there forever

A bit of a noob question here... I've added these to my uPlay account, without any problems, but do they have to actually be installed before the 18th? Or can I install, uninstall and reinstall anytime I like in the future?

They're free to keep in your UPlay account indefinitely.

will i be able to play after 18 dec or just uninstall after 18 dec

this is great, heat :grin:

Awesome, thanks. I missed Beyond Good and Evil when it was offered.

I was too lzy/busy to do this every day with each game so I didnt bother with any, but now they are all together, God bless you tiny tim
