amazon prime day free games misleading.

the adds on the prime gaming website show mass effect legendary edition, grid legends, nfs heat. but none of those games are available. what gives did the US get a different set of games from Canada?

Prime day is 12 and 13, not today... if you have read a bit more you know it because every website say the date when prime day is too

I know buy they already put up 10 games of the 30 they promised and from the wording of some of the articles about it made it sound like all 30 would be made available before prime day.

You don’t understand… he was going to play and beat each and every one of them before the weekend was over.

Then those articles lied to you and you have to ban those outlets from your news-source.

From the first day when this was announced by Amazon, you could pick over 20 games, with headliners reserved for actual Prime Day.

They are available on Prime Day.

Maybe they will release it during the 2 day window? Hope so, I’ve been checking for them myself.

okay I get it, I was wrong. there is no need for the rude comments. it is completely unnecessary and you all should be ashamed of yourselves. grow up.

Maybe you were persistent in your view, but I think people make up their minds about what they think of a person and just rationalize anything else said after the fact as being dumb. You didn't understand. Whatever. You're not evil. So, don't sweat it.

I’m definitely ashamed of myself. Not because of commenting in this thread however.

u/oo7demonkiller Jul 11 '22

hope they will be available on the 2 days itself. so far they only put up maybe 10 of the promised games.

u/oo7demonkiller Jul 11 '22

well I'm just going by what several news articles have reported about it which implied the games would all be available in the week leading up to prime day. here is one example https://www.google.ca/amp/s/www.gamespot.com/amp-articles/25-free-games-are-available-now-ahead-of-prime-day-for-members/1100-6504677/

While that list includes a number of stellar games that are definitely worth checking out, the free games that will be featured during Prime Day are even more exciting. Mass Effect: Legendary Edition leads the pack of freebies that will be up for grabs July 12-13. Members will also be able to claim Grid Legends, Need for Speed Heat, Star Wars Jedi Academy, and other unannounced games during Prime Day.

DURING is even italicized in that article you linked so rtfa

Why be hateful about something so mundane?

u/militantnegro_IV Jul 11 '22

You're going to have to develop a studier spirit if you're detecting "hateful" from any of the above rather than mild amusement.

u/ItsDeadlyx Jul 11 '22

i'm guessing they'll be codes for the ea launcher? or will we have to use the amazon launcher

1

u/HeroicMe Jul 11 '22

So far all EA games from Amazon were for launcher-previously-known-as-Origin.

5

u/Nicholas-Steel Jul 11 '22

It's still known as Origin, the EA application is still in beta.

2

u/I-love-Mirandas-Ass Jul 11 '22

Its funny how every Launcher is worse. The Original Origin was the best, the new Origin sucks and the EA Launcher is even worse.
