oldage Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 (edited) No mods replied to my PM so I'm assuming they gave me green light. http://www.ultimatumgamekeys.com/en Basically, this is a site that sells cheap game keys. I won't blame you if you think this is shady, but it's not; these guys are 100% legit. Ultimatum Games was founded by a team of Hardcore PC gamers. Our system and website was built by us for gamers all over the world who share a common passion - gaming. We sell original CD-Keys for the PC and therefore are able to have a quick delivery system, the CD-Keys are sent directly to your email. Our customer policy is created to satisfy you. We hope you enjoy your visit at our website, and always aim to provide you with top quality service! Please contact us with any comments, suggestions, or complaints - we will reply as quickly as possible. Ultimatum Games Team I've gotten Civ5 some time ago from them, and I got my key some minutes after my order. Now, their games and the prices. Battlefield 3 Cost on Origin: $59.99 Cost on GameStop: $59.99 Cost on Amazon: $59.95 Cost on UGK: $30.99 Dead Island Cost on Steam: $49.99 Cost on GameStop: $49.99 Cost on Amazon: $49.99 Cost on UGK: $31.92 RAGE Cost on Steam: $59.99 Cost on GameStop: $59.99 Cost on Amazon: $59.99 Cost on UGK: $37.99 And many more. Another thing for people using euro, they're not like steam in the sense of €1 = $1 so this site is a real money saver. If you're still somewhat skeptical, here's a bunch of user reviews http://www.trustpilot.com/review/ultimatumgamekeys.com if you have any questions, I'll do my best to answer them.

nlitement Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 So is the idea that you download the game anyway, with cracks or not, then just apply an unused CD key to play online? I believe what they're basically doing is selling the license for each game at a discount. The reason a game costs nearly $50 even on the PC, is because of the additional costs that come with shipping, printing the physical media, packaging, etc. As far as the publishers are concerned, they're just buying games from their suppliers just like any retailer, with the only difference being that they take out the CD keys, scan them, and sell them. But I do still wonder what they think about this model.. it sounds perfectly legal to me, the only thing being that to save money you'd obviously want to install the game itself less legally for free.

oldage Posted September 4, 2011 Author Share Posted September 4, 2011 They're russian and I read that a lot of games are way cheaper there (that's why the steam keys that require a russian VPN are way cheaper than the region free ones), and they get a large discount by buying the games in bulk aswell.

Sunrise Driver Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 (edited) So is the idea that you download the game anyway, with cracks or not, then just apply an unused CD key to play online? I also thought about this but then I noticed Steam/Origin/Battle.net etc. icons to the right of box art. Means that you'll be able to download the game from that service. They're russian I heard you couldn't activate the game with a russian/CIS key and change the lang. outside that region (Russia + CIS) in some games.

Sunrise Driver Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 Yeah, because I doubt that you can download GTA IV from official site. And if I'm not mistaken - it's not possible to activate DiRT 2 & 3 key on Steam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldage Posted September 4, 2011 Author Share Posted September 4, 2011 yeah for some games you need the ISO, like GFWL games (Dirt's), you'll need to give the key during installation instead of activating it. But, as said, the icons tell you what/where to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kimd41 Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 (edited) Suddently I see CD Key selling sites everywhere. The most important question is, which of them is legit? This one seems legit, but I'd like to see some opinion from people that have purchased there. EDIT: Just noticed the link on first post, sorry.

Whiskey Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 Gamersgate is also another site which functions like the one mentioned in the OP. I'ved used it a few times now and I've gotten a good few steals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
