It seems like Ubisoft is selling this game in their own shop (u-play) for 1 euro. If you are interested, now this sunday is time to get it.

Sounds like that time I bought Splinter Cell: Conviction for $1 through them.

REMINDER! This game is currently (today, Sunday) on sale for $1/£1/1 euro on Ubisoft purchasing site/program, Uplay.

Just installed it!

holy shit that's a great value

Any retail game is worth that much, even Home front.

That's ridiculous. Most things are worth 1€, but you have to be pretty crazy not to buy this game for that. It's good.

Jumping on that shit.

There are very few games that aren't worth $1, and a reportedly flawed but good game is definitely worth it.

EDIT: Got it. Downloading UPlay. I hope it works.

Yeah, but is it worth it?

A dollar? I've paid far more for far less before...

Got it for 1 CAD =D Not going to play it for a while but eh! It's basically free!

The fun thing about that stupid Ubi store is that they apparently consider game downloads as an affair for people over the age of 18 because even though Driver:SF is only rated 12 by the USK (Germany), I cannot purchase the game between 6am and 21:59pm. I've seen this on Origin once, too but that was for Battlefield 3 and made sense due to the 18 rating.

This is so silly. Hopefully I don't forget it later tonight ...

At some (price) point you are not judging if the game is worth the sale price, but if it is worth your time to play it.

There are quite a lot of retail games I would't play for free.

Just installed Uplay and bought Driver, but it isn't showing up in my "Games" list and I haven't received the activation code in my email yet. How long's it supposed to take (PayPal shows that the payment's already been processed).

For me, it said that it might take a bit for the game to show up in the Games tab. Fortunately, it didn't, but maybe their servers are getting overcrowded or something?

@believer258: It just appeared in my Games tab, though I haven't gotten whatever activation code they were talking about yet.

Hey, that's basically how I picked up Splinter Cell Conviction sometime last year also. Done!

I didn't get a code either, I just clicked the download button under it.

But then, I paid with a debit card and not Paypal.

What is a Uplay? I want Driver but I don't trust Ubisoft.

@believer258: Alright, cool. That might be the only thing I need to do, even though I could have sworn that they mentioned something about sending me a code but I could be mistaken. Thanks.

Ubisoft's Origin.

Before the receipt page in the review section I got a serial number, maybe you missed that? But same for me with the debit card, straight download button. Also best deal for me this year so far.

@Jrinswand: Uplay is basically their store and their way to play Ubisoft games on PC. I have never had a problem with Uplay or Ubisoft on pc (with their always on system which happens on my steam anyway) but recently they had a major backdoor found and fixed so there could be potential for more?

No, I mean it's Ubisoft's version of Origin.

I didn't say "Steam", because Steam has pretty much everything on it already, with a handful of exceptions. UPlay seems to be just for Ubisoft products, like Origin seems to be just for EA products. You download it and start the game through it, like you would download a game through Steam or Origin and start it through one of those.

It sucks, yes, but no one else is selling Driver San Francisco for a dollar and I deemed it worth making a UPlay account. Also, if you were to buy it through Steam you would have to use UPlay anyway.

Yeah, me too. LOL. I've heard Jeff and Vinny talk about it enough to know that it's worth getting.

Awww yeah. Time to get my metaphysical open worlding on.

Thanks for this heads up
