You really believe they were hit piece articles?
of his AMD hit piece articles
Honestly, this is about the never settle bundle, so lets get back on topic.
All I see on these forums is that any time a positive thread about AMD comes out the usual suspects come in and thread crap. There is one person in particular who thread craps Nvidia threads also, but for the most part all the people that get accused of being pro AMD post perfectly on topic and respectfully in the Nvidia threads. Why can't they just return the favor and keep things on topic.
I can appreciate this. I personally like the bundle. I've been debating getting a 7950 for a while and this almost made me pull the trigger, but I'm waiting for a possible Haswell release in the next month or 2 and seeing what I'd have to spend.
I myself and really looking forward to what Haswell can get out of current GPU's. I would imagine it could increase minimum framerates over my i5 2500k which would make my 7970 last even longer.
Especially since the performance increases through drivers keep coming out.

Sigh. Try reading the first one, then the second one. I'll give you one more shot.
EDIT:
Maybe hypocrisy would be a better word.
So newegg has shipped me the code they forgot to include with my 7950 TF3. Has anyone received one of these before ? How is it a single code for two different games from two different developers ?
Do you turn them in to AMD and then receive the actual game cd-keys or something ?
Yes.

It gives you directions literally right on the card, doesn't it?
I haven't gotten it yet, they shipped it today. I was just going on the image for the SKU at the egg Thanks.
Possibly a dumb question but I have never gotten one of these cards with free games so...when you get these codes can you redownload the game ad infinitum like with steam or other digital services?
Also, can you give away the codes? If so, do you get separate codes per game?
I received the coupon with my 7950. I want to sell crysis 3 and bioshock, but in order to get the game keys, you need to fill out information on the amd site. Will this be a problem when I sell these keys? Does this information have to be same when you download the games?

Does anyone have an idea when AMD will send the codes to download the games? On the day of the release?
So to be clear, there is a physical coupon that you enter correct? I just did a pickup at NCIX US branch.
The girl who assisted swore up and down there is no coupon. I'm going to be PISSED if I don't get it.
Purchasing from them for what should have been a simple pick up has been the worse experience I've had with an internet vendor.

Not every retailer is participating in free game bundle promotion. If there isn't an included coupon, you won't get the free games - i'd return the product if possible.
