Buy Spec Ops: The Line On PC For $5 And Get $5 Promotional Credit

Posted on Friday, November 30 @ 17:36:07 Eastern by Jonathan_Leack

Update: It appears that the deal ended at midnight EST. Congratulations to all who made it in time. To those who didn't, there are sure to be many more great deals this Holiday season so stay on your toes!

One of this year's greatest story experiences is on sale for a killer price.

Amazon is offering Spec Ops: The Line on PC for only $4.99. Purchase includes a $5 promotional credit toward any Editor's Choice title in January 2013. Best of all, you can choose to receive a CD-key for the game during checkout and activate it on Steam. That way, you can have it on your primary digital library and unlock achievements while you play.

Spec Ops: The Line received acclaim for having a dark, gripping narrative mixed with some satisfying third-person shooter gameplay. I personally took advantage of this deal, so you know what I'll be playing all weekend.

    I ran across it while checking out the top sales charts on Amazon and was so stunned I had to share it. Well, after I hustled to get a copy myself, of course. :)

    Of all the "recent" Steam deals I've downloaded, Spec Ops is the only one I've played. Fvcking good game.
