Amazon Rift Sale $5-$9 with 30 days included

in Rift

Just alerting those of you that are thinking of buying it, the physical copy of Rift is now $0.99 (+$4 shipping) and the digital download is around $9. I can personally confirm the latter includes the initial 30 day subscription for new customers making this a better deal than the official site's $5 without 30 days. I can't personally vouch for the physical copy but I've read on other threads that it also includes the first 30 days.

    Good find there!

    Rift might not be the best MMO out there but it is worth 9 bucks for a month of play time.

    I think I might pick myself up a copy.

    Yeah, it was great timing for me. I was just up all night playing the trial and I wake up to this on Amazon. I haven't played Rift since beta and playing a few free weekends by Trion. They've come a long way. I think if it gets enough word of mouth about it's improvements, Trion can bank off of the disappointed gamers leaving SWTOR. I'm one of them. I've been trying to fix something that crashes the SWTOR client every few minutes and had to deal with EA's customer service (or lack thereof). I'm not badmouthing SWTOR, but unfortunately for some of us it's just unplayable and EA hasn't made the effort to care, so people will leave. Trion seems to be handling things a lot better with the extra time they've had since release so they just earned a new fan.

    If you don't mind the download you can get the standard edition for $4.99 and the collector's upgrade for $14.99 (you can always buy the CE upgrade later at any time for $10 anyway).

    Here is the product page.

     

    That doesn't include 30 days free. That's why I'm posting this. Amazon is a better deal.

     

    edit p.s. That is unless you just want to buy the physical version to stare at the box and not play it. lol

    Awesome news!  I'll head out to the dollar store and pick up a box copy right now!  Hopefully they'll have them in a bin next to the yo-yo's.

    Thx for the heads up OP!  That's kinda how I snuck my way into AoC many moons ago.

    If you want 0 extras, it's the way to go.

    That is a great deal and a great way for people to kill time until their next anticipated game releases. Rift is quite enjoyable.
