AbsolutSurgen Posted June 28 Share Posted June 28 I went into my Prime Gaming to claim the free games, and realized I had never installed the Amazon App. So I did. I have more than 350 games in an installer I had never used. 2024 is bizarre. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crispy4000 Posted June 28 Share Posted June 28 They’ve been out of control for years now. Amazon occasionally has some good stuff. I keep saying Revita is amazing, it was one of the freebies there at some point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AbsolutSurgen Posted June 28 Author Share Posted June 28 Yeah. Baldur's Gate is a little rough in 2024. That's why it was great it was free! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crispy4000 Posted June 28 Share Posted June 28 Get a launcher like Launchbox or Playnite that will aggregate them all for you. Since Amazon gives away much of their games as Epic and GOG codes now, it’s kind of a must. GoG can even do it, I think? I don’t know if it’s as actively supported since CD Projekt Red consolidated their efforts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think any of them are perfect, since there’s often under the hood changes that will break things. But my experience with Launchbox has been generally good, though I’ve heard Playnite can be more straightforward (and doesn’t have its full screen mode behind a paywall).

tgo Posted June 28 Share Posted June 28 They do a horrible job of advertising their gaming section. I couldn’t find it anywhere on their prime page. I had to do a google search where it shows there games on Luna. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crispy4000 Posted June 28 Share Posted June 28 The more notable Prime pickups I've gotten over the years, that I can remember owning there only, or first: - Card Shark - Forager - Genesis Noir - The Forgotten City - Doom 3 - Revita - The Evil Within 2 - Dishonored 2 - Middle-Earth: Shadow of War - Scourgebringer - Fell Seal: Arbiter's Mark - Rain World - Steamworld Quest - Frostpunk - Dragon Age Inquisition - Control: Ultimate Edition - Journey to the Savage Planet w/ DLC - Yoku's Island Express - Furi - Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair - Kunai - Blazing Chrome - Blasphemous - Grime - Endling: Extinction is Forever Amazon is a slow burn compared to Epic giveaways, but there's legitimately great rewards for being attentive to it. Many if not most things through their launcher are also DRM free, and are downloadable even if your sub lapses. I came to it somewhat late, towards the end of 2021 if I recall. It's definitely not worth a prime subscription in itself, but it doesn't need to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My epic free gaming has a LOOOOONG sidebar. I didn't even bother to see what they were. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
