... after "liking" THQ's facebook page. In case, you guys haven't heard of the promotion yet.

Protip: Do not download the .exe. Open up Steam then go to games -> Activate a Product on Steam then enter the code there. Don't know why they'd want you to download a exe file... unless...

Man wish I wouldnt have bought it and got it for free x-x. Game is good but its dx11 depth of blur and motion blur gets a bit out of hand to the point everything looks like a blurry shape shifting mess as it moves. There are some tweaks to help this though. It did support nvidia physx including ambient wind and man do I love ambient wind flowing through the metro making everything sway.

I enjoyed playing it though and am interested in seeing if Last Light can really improve on what this game started.

Oh wow, I was surprised to see this actually worked. 3rd free game I got this week. Very Happy

I guess THQ really is going out of business. Either that or they really have nothing to lose at this point.
