That's right for $5 + tax total from the EA Store.
You get:

PC Versions as downloads.

It takes about 1-2 minutes to do. It is really easy. It looks like a referral scheme, BUT it is not. All you have to do is type some codes in to get 175 points and get a -$10 off coupon from the EA Store. This coupon takes off $10 from each of the above games and makes it $5 total.

It has been proven to work at Hardocp, Overclock.net, and Cheapassgamer. I tried it myself too.

Anyway onto the directions:

It gives you the codes to use and the answers to 10 second quizzes. You will get the code in 1 minute. Use a fake address, name, and old e-mail you don't care about to register on the recycle website. You need an e-mail you have access to, to confirm your account.

I think the unlock code can be used on steam too, if you have the steam bought Bad Company 2. But you can't install Vietnam from steam if you have the retail bought Bad Company 2.

Here is a list of FAQs for installs

Nice deal - but just a little too much work for me....

 

[whistleclient]

Can you use the SPECACT Kit Upgrades if you bought BFBC2 via Steam? Or do you need to have bought that via EA too?

 

[Chocu1a]

Codes are associated to the email your EA account is tied to. It will work, in other words.
Expansion is well worth the full price, but this deal is insane!

Yes, it works with any version. You just need to make the purchase with the account you want to attach the dlc to. So, when checking out, log into the account you use to play online.

Damn I wish I could download it off steam makes re installs and upgrades a Breeze.

 

[PieIsAwesome]

Also FIFA 10 is free.

:awe:

I did all the surveys, "bought" the discount, got the code and the confirmation email, but when I go to put the code in the EA store I get:

"The code you entered is invalid or has expired. Be sure you typed the code correctly and try again."

I'm cutting and pasting it directly from the email. What did I do wrong?

Make sure there are no spaces? Might have received a bad code. You could try getting another code using a different email, it only takes a few minutes. The 3 codes I got all worked.

 

[ImDonly1]

I read if you get code expired, it has happend to a few people on other boards. Try to make a new account for the recycle website and re-do everything.

 

[ImpulsE69]

Easy! Got Vietnam! Thanks!

Yup, I did it again it the new code worked. Thanks, OP!

Use a fake address, name, and old e-mail you don't care about to register on the recycle website.

That sounds like fraud.

 

[lupi]

tried putting everything $10 and under on the site in my cart to see what would happen. if an item was discounted to under 10, the coupon 10 off would apply to the regular price. except for the bf2 dlc, no other dlc type item would allow a discount. so there are several other items you can get for around 5 bucks each if you wanted to get a d/l version of but not from steam.

as for the main site, i went from registering to 200 points (need 175 for EA discount) in about 5 minutes. well worth it for a $5 copy of nam.

 

[RavenSEAL]

can't register, says code is not valid

 

[imaheadcase]

Mmm have not got a email from then in over a hour. I guess they are backlogged?

 

[imaheadcase]

That sounds like fraud.

That sounds like what everyone on the internet does since its beginning..

 

[lupi]

email from whom?

 

[imaheadcase]

email from whom?

The email you get so you can register after you sign up.

 

[eternalone]

That sounds like fraud.

Thats exactly why I thought twice about doing this. Doing stuff like this is iffy at best.

 

[imaheadcase]

Seriously you never submitted a fake address to get something cheaper or free on the internet?

You honestly can say you put real address in every website you visited...lol

 

[lupi]

ah, mine took only a couple of seconds from hitting register to opening email account and seeing it there.

...i'm 5 points short, can't find anything else...
