Well I can assure you that, if you should buy something like Call of Duty: Ghost you'll attract many people to your give-away :p

Or just go to the Top seller list, or even more economical, the specials tab, and buy something you would enjoy from the list. I pretty sure you'll find someone without a specific game that will enter your give-away...

You can either buy from Steam and store it in your inventory or buy and mail it to the Winners email address or simply buy from other stores like Green Man Gaming or such.

Simple, buy what ever you want to give to the community. I normally opt for underrated games that I really enjoyed. Example the Men of War series I am currently posting. I really really love this series to bits and think more people should know about it. If giving it to fellow gamer's help it grow then I call it Job Done.

Or you can simply gift games that you got in bundle's and already own or do not want ie: the ones that come with ATI cards. Here you can simply PM the code to the winner.

Gratz Eugene, check your PM

I can also tell you that Metro 2033 is NOT a game people want :P

But if you went ahead and got 12 (to give me GREAT odds of getting one) pre-orders of Thief, then this community would give you virtual hugs. :)

Like The-1 said, use this link: https://support.steampowered.com/kb_...7480-wusf-3601 to see which ones you can activate on Steam.

Also the Steam version of Bioshock 2 recently removed GFWL, and gave the Minerva's Den DLC for free, so it would definitely be worth adding that (using your retail code).

Out of all the 20 odd games I have, only Bioshock 2 activated by me entering the cd key into "Activate a game on Steam". Fallout 3 didn't work at all which is weird. I sent Steam Support a list of the games I'm trying to activate, their cd keys and a pic of each one with the original disc and cd key on the case as proof of it's authenticity.

I hope they can fix the issue as all the games I have is on the Steam Store and so they are supported by Steam and not just Games for Windows Live. This is such a pain! :-)

Just a quick heads up, they gonna ask you for proof of purchase. Did it last time I bought a game from Look & listen that did not activate. No proof = no register. Load of people I know learned this the hard way.

What I did is made a fake one in Excel and printed it. Took a photo of "invoice" + games + ID book and my Steam ID written next to the cd keys. That worked like a charm.
