Not sure what is going on, but Steam has started spitting out coupons. It just gave me two 50% off Assassin's Creed: Revelations coupons that are supposedly good from today to April 1. Looking on the Steam forums this is happening to a lot of people, but not always AC:R. It has to be a glitch though because some people are reporting that every time they restart Steam they get more coupons! (Not the case for me, by the way.)
Anyone else seeing this happen to them?

I agree, all these polls are getting old real fast, try a pie chart, or if your feeling really adventurous try a histogram or two

No.
  • 50% * 50% = 25% so not free
  • One coupon may be used at a time

:withstupid:

It ends April 1st, and the coupons do work, so they are not a joke.

Or are they?

I figure Valve is going to let everyone use these coupons, come April 1st, they ban everyone that used them and say they abused a glitch in Steam. Then come April 2nd, they unban all those people and say it was an April Fools prank done in classic Valve Time style. :D

Anyway, I already have AssCreedRev so if anyone wants a 50% off coupon, PM me and I'll send it to you.
