No Such Thing as A Free Meal (Redeem Code)

Posted on by James Young

Free PSN redeem codes or any other kind of free redeem code simply does not exist. I’m sure you know what I’m talking about: “PSN Redeem Code generator” or “XBox Live Codes for free!” Yeah, those kinds of things.

All of these are nothing but scams. Most of the time, these kinds of sites will trick you into giving up your personal information or automatically subscribing you to some useless SMS scam. You’ll then suddenly find out that you either have a lot of bills to pay or your credit card’s been hijacked. Don’t be fooled by these.

The Redeem Code Rip Off

To give an example, the image below shows what a typical scam site of a “redeem code generator” looks like:

It’s natural that we’d first be suspicious of the site, so we tend to look at them closer. You’ll most often find “certified” marks on their page that are clearly visible and/or claims that they’ve been voted or rated highly by some internet website that you also don’t know. There are even ratings for the particular item you’re looking for even though there’s no real way to rate it for yourself.

All of these are just images posted on the site to make it look legit and lull you into a false sense of security. When you do decide to “generate” a code, they’ll most likely require you to share the page with a number of folks on your social media. You’ll then just be spreading the plague.

After a bunch of other steps, they’ll make you take stupid surveys before finally asking for your personal information. The most popular one they ask you for is your mobile phone number, which they will then use to subscribe to expensive apps and other subscriptions that will be of no use to you. It goes without saying that you should NEVER give your CC information to any of these sites. If you do that, then GG, you’re screwed. Cancel your credit card immediately and inform the bank of what happened. They’ll get things sorted out, but it’ll cause a huge hassle for you.

Remember, there are no such things as free redeem codes; there are only cheap ones. If you do ever need anything from PSN redeem codes to Xbox Live subs that are legit, fast, and, most importantly, safe, head off to trusted marketplaces rather than succumbing to these scams.

 

Steam Codes Spotlight: Enter The Gungeon

Posted on by James Young

Enter the Gungeon is a game in the form of classic Bullet Hells, but in dungeons! There haven’t been many to put two invariably separate genres together, especially considering that Bullet Hells are done in spacious, fast-paced, and linear stage tracks while Dungeoneering is especially more focused on quiet strategy and exploration of labyrinthine networks. Again, it really isn’t something people marry together, but it’s an interesting concept entirely.

Steam Codes Pick – Weaving Unlikeliness

You pick one of several characters that each have unique stats, weapon specialties, and abilities. But the best and greatest character in Enter the Gungeon is… wait for it…. the bullet. Yep, you heard it right folks; you can play as a bullet shooting bullets at other bullets that shoot bullets at other bullets. Bulletception. But the best part about this character is that he actually starts with, and I kid you not, a sword. Called Blasphemy. Cuz, you know, he’s a bullet using a sword. With every character being just as interesting or even more than the last, Enter the Gungeon has that one character everyone is going to love.

The “Gungeon” itself, the playing field, is an ever-evolving landscape that have been meticulously designed and hand-drawn, but, at the same time, procedurally generating new rooms and landscapes based on the performance of players. While everyone starts out in the same area, the next few rooms will be different on how fast, how good, and what method you dispatched foes with in the previous areas. There’s no similar experience for each playthrough and things just get harder and harder. The game will easily pick up if you’re too good.

Steam Codes Pick – OMG STUFF!

Again, even though it’s bullet hell gameplay, the strongest dungeon element in this game is that there is actual progression, shops, currency, and equipment you have to manage, akin to old school dungeoneering games like Legend of Zelda or Alundra. With tons of hidden rooms and secret treasures, there’s just so much content to be had in Enter the Gungeon. What makes this ever more awesome is that there’s actual multiplayer that you can partake in. Unfortunately, you can only connect via LAN as the game does not support online at the moment.

The best part, however, is that Enter the Gungeon subscribes to the Diablo and Borderlands philosophy of HOLYCRAPLOTSOFLOOT. It’s undeniable that loot-based games have a powerful pull on our psyches. With hundreds upon hundreds of guns to be looted, bought, or stolen, Enter the Gungeon will keep you busy for hours on end with its amazing looting system.

Unleash everything from the tried and true medley of missiles, lasers, and cannonballs to the bizarrely effective volley of rainbows, fish, foam darts, and bees! Yep, bees.

Yeah, that pretty much sums it up

How To Use an Xbox Redeem Code – The Debacle!

Posted on by James Young

The Xbox Redeem Code Debacle!

The interface of the Xbox One, while awesome to look at, won’t be winning any awards soon. The old interface, the initial one at launch, was an awful mess to be completely honest. You could hardly find where to redeem your codes, much less other things not directly about gaming. But the new interface hasn’t done it any favors either.

To be honest, we’re only doing this to help you guys. Back during the era of the Xbox 360 era, it was way easy! Hit the guide button, you go over there, and just hit the “Redeem Code” option. That was it! But, no, the Xbox One has to be a fickle bastard, a confusing one at that, and cause a lot of pain for folks that just wanted to use their Xbox Redeem Code.

For half an hour, I was just lolling around my Xbox One interface with literally no idea what I was doing or looking for. Finally, however, I found exactly how to do it. Now, why the tutorial, you ask? Well, this is to help the folks out there that don’t want to waste their time trying to figure out the pointlessness for themselves. This way, you save a lot of time and frustration.

So, here it is. To use your Xbox redeem code go to the top of your Xbox One dashboard and put your cursor highlight on the “Store” tab. This will then collapse into smaller tabs and choose the “Games” tab. Scroll down to “Browse All Games” that is located right beside the “Search All Games” bar.

Once on the Browse All Games interface, head back up to the top of the page and slide to the right and click on the “Use a Code” tab. Once there, you can choose to either use a QR code to scan on your kinect or use the 25 digit Xbox redeem code you have. It’s that simple although it can be initially frustrating at first.

Certainly, Microsoft has designed the Xbox with a very fancy interface that is sleek, smooth, pleasing to the eyes, and minimalist. It’s an awesome aesthetic design, but has horrid ergonomic properties. It takes a bunch of tries and a whole lot of patience for people just to use their redeem codes or redeem gift cards because of an oddly illogically structured user interface.

If you need any other Xbox Redeem Code, redeem gift cards, or any other sorts of redeem codes, be sure to check out PlayerAuctions for all your gaming needs.

Steam Codes: Is Street Fighter V Worth Investing On?

Posted on by James Young

Street Fighter V has been release for over a month or two now. Thousands and thousands of people bought the game but have different opinions on the fighting game.  So the question is, is Street Fighter V worth investing time on? You don’t have to resort to buy Steam Codes for another game for that one.

Steam Codes: Question

Someone from Reddit, AxelTheEternalBlood, asked about the topic:

“SFV is a great fighting game, awesome gameplay and cool characters but that’s where it stops for me. None of the characters have me interested in maining them. Alex will be the first one in V to get me invested in the game. Gonna main him but until then I just can’t play it. I don’t have a connection with any of the characters when I play. Also, another issue is that while being on PS4, I came from the FPS scene. So all my old friends just don’t play Fighters. So I was hoping to find some guys to play with on PSN. PSN:AxelTheEternal. CFN ID:Siegmund. Thanks.”

Honestly, when Axel mentioned “SFV is a great fighting game”, the main question of “is SFV worth investing time on” was answered. Street Fighter V is a fighting game, enough said. No going beyond that. Adding the “awesome gameplay” he pertained plus the “cool characters”, those are bonuses for a fighting game. In my opinion, if you are not going to compete in tournaments and just a fan of fighting games, then maybe don’t invest too much time on it. But if you have competitive drive like me and winning games against other competitive people is a major high for me, then you need to be breathing SFV every second of your free time.

Street Fighter V will be the first SF iteration I will be playing seriously. I mentioned this because Alex said he has no connection with any of the characters in the game. Yeah true, it will be contributing to your enjoyment if you play the character you have a connection to it but for me, what’s important is you have connection on the game itself. Truth be told, even if you have this insane love for your character, sooner or later, you will be wanting to try other characters as well. Whether it be because you’re sick and tired of your main character or you want to know the strengths and weaknesses of the other characters, the point is, you will be using other characters. So no point on dwelling about having no any connection on any available characters in Street Fighter V.

Buy Steam codes and the game (PSN, Xbox, Steam Codes), train hard, play hard and win many. That’s how you can be sure about investing more time in a fighting game like SFV.
