Got mine to work, here are the steps for Firefox:

1) Download the AutoProxy add-on and install.

2) Once it's installed click the "Default Proxy" link on the page that appears and select "Add a proxy".

3) Choose a proxy address and port from this list then set it to your default.

4) Switch AutoProxy to Global mode and access the site http://hitman.de/sniper

You should be able to fill out the form and the Captcha at this point.

After jumping through all the hoops I'm downloading the Sniper Challenge now. Thanks for the heads up, Joph.

I get to keep "trying again later" :)

It all works, just... doesn't go to the success page. Try again later (in german).

It's weird, I even created a completely new email and it wouldn't take it. I guess you'll have to wait for now.

It seems to be working now. Got a code and just have to make a square account and redeem it.

Edit:
Activated on Steam.

I wonder what this whole thing is... SE-Germany being nice to its customers and giving a free game to everyone. Or is it some exploit and only supposed to be truly for preorders?

Yowza. Glad you got it to work after all that. Also glad I got in when I did since I think I must have been one of the last to get it the easy way.

Looks like they are all out of keys now.

Funny how it was open until Dec. 14th, but it's empty today. Square Enix did a similar miscalculation with that cheap *** amazon bundle too.

SE figured they had generated enough codes for those 3 countries to last to Dec 14th. Apparently SE didn't plan to supply the entire world.

Today's Steam Sales are:

Dishonored for $30
Civ 5 for $7.50
Orcs Must Die 2 for $3.75
Batman: Arkham City GOTY for $7.50
Torchlight II for $10
Sonic Generations for $7.50


Why the hell is Singularity still around $30 when it came out in 2010? Hell, Batman: AC came out this time last year and it's already down to $7.50.

Best price I've seen for TL2 so far but anyone buying Dishonored for that price deserves to have their wallet taken away.

The the best price yet for Arkham City: GotY, but I bet it'll be down to 4.99 for Christmas. I'm tempted, but I think I'll wait.

I've had it since summer sale. Really been meaning to play it. Oo

Tony Hawk's Pro Skater HD is currently $5 as a Flash Sale. If you miss the Playstation/N64 days of gaming this will bring back the nostalgia (and kick it in the teeth as half of the original soundtrack has been replaced).

Final day of Steam Sales are up.

Counter Strike: Global Offensive for $7.50
CoD: MW3 for $30
Alan Wake Franchise for $10
Castle Crashers for $5
Legend of Grimrock for $3.75
Witcher 2: Enhanced Edition for $7.50

I recommend all games except for CoD because I am not a CoD fan, and Counter Strike because I haven't played it.

Half Minute Hero: Super Mega Neo Climax Ultimate Boy is on sale for $6, so go buy that too.

Ended up buying Witcher 2, as I remember looking at it a few months back and deciding it was interesting but not worth full price.

I want to thank everyone who's posted stuff in this thread, I've snagged several games over the past few months, all for less than $10. Portal 2, ME2, Terraria, Witcher 2... I thought was done with non-MMOs, but the good deals here have me up to my eyeballs in single-player titles Smiley: lol

I thought that same thing about The Witcher 2, and when I finally broke down and bought it, I regretted not playing it sooner. It's one of the best games I've played in recent years. I really need to go back and give it another play through with different choices.

Did you play the Witcher 1? Would you recommend it for those who haven't?

I've heard that Witcher 1 isn't required for Witcher 2 and is a clunkier, less polished game. It was still good enough to get a lot of people excited for Witcher 2 so it's not a dog, it's just not as good.

In accordance to Sale Ending tradition, my haul...
- Blockland (got a free key)
- Hitman: Sniper Challenge (free key)
- KOTOR 2
- Call of Juarez
- Orcs Must Die: GOTY
- FEAR 1, 2 & 3 (bundle)
- Max Payne 3
- Dishonored

All told, about $40. Not too shabby.

Arkham City is the only game I bought this time... but I did add a few to my 'wishlist' so I can ponder buying them in the future on sale. (I know I should have picked up Sonic Generations too, but I'll just wait and see around xmas)

I personally enjoyed The Witcher more than the Witcher 2, but both were excellent games. The Witcher is a bit less flashy and polished though.
