Not just like that though. There is a catch.

You also get some TF2 stuff but who cares about that?

Hey don't knock on the free TF2 items, I've sold them for steam wallet $$$ on the community market

that's right as you can see I sold ONE hat I got outta the 3 hats that came with the Ghost Recon game for $13 steam wallet on the community market place, I sold the other scout hat for $10, I decided I'll keep the soldier hat for my self but I made $23 in my steam wallet for something I got for free!!

I wonder if mine are worth anything, doubt it :P

Edit: Prob about $5 worth of items - more than what I paid for the games (Total War games at $1 + $2.50)...

Hmm, I don't generally like pre-orders but that would be 2 wishlist games for $60...

I'll wait to see if it gets to level 3, and then check if there is any info out there about Infinite before doing anything. I really liked the first 2 Bioshocks but who knows...

i have no interest in buying Bioshock on day 1, yet i'm VERY excited about this.
Have been looking for xcom for a looong time, but it never dropped under 20$ish - if they reach the goal, steamtrades will probably be overflowing with cheap copies, and i'll be able to finally play that damn game.

Do these things normally hit the top? It doesn't say how many are needed, or how many have already been placed.

Surely they could fix this is they really wanted to? I want both Bioshock and XCOM though so am very tempted. Haven't day 1 purchased a game in ages!

GMG also...

BioShock Infinite, you may have heard of it. Well, we want to reward everyone that pre-purchases it from Green Man Gaming!

What is this reward? Well...

If you pre-purchase BioShock Infinite, you will also receive BioShock for FREE!
But that's not all, you will also get to choose another FREE game from the following titles*; Spec Ops: The Line, Sid Meier's Civilization V, BioShock 2, The Darkness II or Mafia II.

That's right, you get 2 whole free games when you pre-purchase BioShock Infinite!

We don't believe in 'unlocking' pre-purchase offers and as a result you will get these free games INSTANTLY!

The good news doesn't stop there! When you pre-purchase BioShock Infinite you will also get to choose between $15 GMG Credit or $14 Cash Back!

If you already pre-purchased BioShock Infinite from us, fear not as you will still be given this massive pre-purchase reward.

Also don't forget to follow us on our social media pages by clicking the buttons at the bottom.

Click here to pre-purchase and get FREE games!

I am interested in XCom so maybe I would have bought it from Steam if they did not have regional pricing. As it is however I have to pay the equivalent of 65 USD for a game that might not even be that great and pre-order bonuses that might not unlock. Sorry but pass.

I look at this from my point of view. Bioshock Infinite is 50€ here on steam EU2 region (that's $66) and it's also sold in retail here for 850CZK (that's 33€/$44). XCOM was just on sale at gmg for $16 with coupon. Gonna pay $22 more for chance to get game that was $16 today. Yeah, that's gonna happen. Seriously, its pathetic how are publishers milking digital distribution, they get like 70% of price instead of about 30% in retail and it's still more expensive.

Chance for a good profit for UK people though!

XCOM is the same price on its own:

Trust me on this, Bioshock Infinite is worth it alone. Getting 2 extra games and a bunch of TF2 items is all profit.

It's been a matter of hours and it's already reached the first reward. So at this rate, everyone who buys it through Steam will be getting X-Com too :D Best rewards I've seen ever.

I would, but I bought XCOM a few days ago and I bought Bioshock:Infinite from GMG for $59.99 less another $10 on their cashback deal, last year. Steam thinks I ought to be paying $80 for it.

Yeah, I know it's worth it. Bioshock Infinite and XCOM are pretty much 2 of the games I have top interest in right now.
The problem is the price. 30£ goes way above the usual "max cost I'm willing to give" I've set for myself. And buying the pre-order goes completely against my golden rule of "75% off or no deal"... and breaking the golder rule hasn't led to good things before.
So I guess I'll meditate over it or something... ^_^'

You remind me of myself, during my University days lol. I always had a tight budget when it came to games. Now, with a job, not so much lol.

Remember, that £30 is split between 3 games and exclusive TF2 items! You could sell the items and gain back some cash. It's your decision though, I'm not going to put any more pressure on you because I know what it's like. Luckily you've still got time to think about it ^^

I thought this too, but my worry is if it doesn't actually reach the top and XCOM isn't unlocked. GMG is £6 cheaper and also offers 2 instant games, but no TF2 items. I'm sure the 2nd reward will be unlocked in the time. I mean, we have a month left, but if XCOM isn't unlocked I won't be happy :(

The Bioshock Infinite Steam pre-order rewards are the best anyone has ever seen. All pre-order rewards for other games on Steam have been unlocked in the past. Bioshock Infinite has more hype than any of those others. The first reward was reached in a matter of hours.

Is that enough reason to buy the Steam version? :P

I don't see it happening for COH 2 :P

also I think it unlocked in a matter of hours because steam also counted previous pre-orders of bioshock infinite

It's a little strange how every game has reached the final tier so far. Maybe Steam have a system where it takes less and less people to buy as the rewards get unlocked.

Bioshock Infinite has the hype and incentives to reach the final tier, just watch! :D
