Of course, I wanted STALKER, but it ended in a flash. It's very strange that Sonic and Star Wars stayed for so long, it seems like they gave a whole bunch of keys, and I even got confused about what to take.
I agree...first I get a steering wheel and then the vault magically doesnt suck for the first time I can remember...i'm feeling a little spoiled right now :LOL:

Kind of shocked star wars was even second place for you tbh.

So, today, AWA for me was like when you're the first time in Bangkok.

You're in a bar and meet a gorgeous girl, you have a few drinks together, dinner, lots of fun...
Then you're finally in your hotel room. She takes her clothes off and you realize she's not technically a girl, but she still looks gorgeous so what the Hell... 🤷‍♂️

Or, less graphic, you want Stalker 2, but you get Sonic.

STALKER is a Ukrainian game, set in Ukraine, albeit a slightly alternative one. Plus some additional things that are harder to explain.
Star Wars was second, but I understood perfectly well the chances of STALKER, so I aimed for it more.
And Sonic was third, well, because, literally, the last Sonic I finished was 3D Blast.

Understandable there...I always forget that about stalker.

Sonic was first for me because I can't remember the last one I even played barring repeated classics.

Already did thanks bro (y)
Great, congratulations!

I mean Sonic it's probably the best in terms of price, rarely New Sonic games are cheap compared to SW which might end up bundled like the previous SW game

Still surprised it has keys, usually, they don't last that long. But I guess users can maybe find someone to trade for that, especially because I remember there was a promotion for that, but I don't know if you need a GPU to redeem it ( it was for 4070 GPUs from Nvidia) - Don't know if it is still active

So, did you get Sonic then?

Yep. I also absolutely do not understand the prices of Sonic games, and it's true that if the publisher doesn't give me this game for free, I won't buy it. Unlike STALKER, which I will buy sooner or later.
So I just weighed up which game I wanted more for myself. Star Wars is a good game, I remember it well on PS1, and it's a game from when I was a really big Star Wars fan, before the Disney era, so I'll start it literally tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, just because I'm currently finishing the last missions of GTA4, which I've never completed before (for various reasons). That was my logic for choosing.

As far as reselling, it would still be worth it...and honestly that's where I figure most go.

Hope so, I'd still like it.

I just went to the Game Vault and i was surprised as how many are still up for grabs.
Only STALKER and Return to Moria (why? It was given just last month on Epic) are sold out.
I'm skipping it this month...
And then next month when everything's gone again you'll be complaining you should have grabbed something lmao.

Yeah, reselling might be an option/trading depending on luck

I'm surprised that 1h has passed sonic is still in stock and Jedi just got out of stock recently.

Also this question came to mind, where were they in the month AWA gave out Metaphor. But not only that: The Thing by Aspyr was also hard to catch, and Tomb Raider even harder...
Its likely because sonic is a MAJOR name in gaming, even non gamers know the damned hedgehog, young and old now with the new movies...they HAD to expect that to hit hard.
