Tom Speirs Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 We are working on some significant changes to registration and licensing to tie in with new services and GameEx Evolution so we are extending the GameEx license sale until these updates are complete which should be within the next couple of weeks. Thank You. View the full article Before you ask this does not mean Evolution will be released in two weeks! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B2K24 Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Holy cow! I still have my email saved from 4 years ago and the Anniversary I bought GameEX is tomorrow NOTE: You do need version 8.53 of GameEx or newer for the key to install.I'll be very happy to buy Evolution again outright without any kind of sale or upgrade special pricing.These products are worth it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Speirs Posted August 7, 2014 Author Share Posted August 7, 2014 Just a heads up to any long time users who have not been promoted up the ranks within the forum - Lifetime licenses are going to go up in price quite significantly with the changes. In addition there is no guarantee that upgrade pricing for Evolution will be available. Not that I don't want to do it but it might not be possible to do it easily technically. I like a clear conscience so there you go. It really it is a great opportunity right now. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doosh Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Just want to check:If I register for the below:Buy GameEx full with lifetime free updates $28 - Click HereWill I get:(1) the 25% discount off the $28, so the cost will be $21, and(2) Receive the free upgrade to GameEX Revolution with lifetime free updates for GameEX Revolution.

nullPointer Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Just want to check:If I register for the below:Buy GameEx full with lifetime free updates $28 - Click HereWill I get:(1) the 25% discount off the $28, so the cost will be $21, andNot quite. $28.00 is 25% off the normal price of $35.00 for a lifetime license of GameEx. So to clarify, the $28.00 price has already had the 25% discount applied.(2) Receive the free upgrade to GameEX Revolution with lifetime free updates for GameEX Revolution.Well ... pretty much. The only caveat being that next gen GameEx is actually called GameEx Evolution. Although really ... we basically see GameEx Evo as being a completely revolutionary frontend, so if the shoe fits! And yes if you purchase a lifetime license of GameEx during the summer sale, that license is considered to be transferable to GameEx Evolution.

Krakerman Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 For those who have moved up the ranks will we be getting it free still I take it as Tom has mentioned that in the past. Just making sure if that didn't change. If so I take it that we'll be getting an email with a new key? just making sure if I need to purchase again or not? Thanks guys!!

GimmeClassics Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Whether I get Evo for free or not, I'll buy an extra license anyway !!This amazing upgrade and the amount of time spend by its creators to offer the community such a cool product will be worth my money for sure Thanks Tom, Headkaze and all the other admins / mods who work on this project !! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krakerman Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Don't get me wrong it's not a matter of not wanting to pay I know Tom had mentioned not too so I just wanted to be clear on this or should I just go ahead and purchase a copy now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nullPointer Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Yes I believe that Tom has stated the Contributors, Elites, and higher will receive a complementary upgrade package to GameEx Evolution. Membership has it's privileges and all that.That shouldn't stop you from purchasing though! Remember that GameEx makes a lovely Mother's Day gift as well! Christmas is just around the corner. Have you got an aspiring retro gamer on your list? A copy of GameEx Evolution (along with an offer of expert support) would make the perfect gift!I purchased another license just because it really is an amazing deal right now, and it's worth it to me to support this amazing product (as well as our wonderful community). Heck I can scarcely take my family out to eat at McDonalds for less than $28.00 these days.Having said all of that, Tom offered the complimentary upgrade to our exemplary users as a way of saying thank you, so there's certainly nothing wrong with simply being graciously accepting of his hospitality. (But seriously GameEx does make a great gift ... like literally the gift that keeps on giving ) 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tthurman Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 I bought my registered version in May knowing I wouldn't be using it for anything but a configuration tool until EVO launched, well mostly anyway. I keep debating if I should pick up another while it's on sale for that all so short chance I decide to put it on my HTPC too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Speirs Posted August 9, 2014 Author Share Posted August 9, 2014 Its a very small thing to give back to our contributors, Elites, mods and Admins for all they day so if you have risen up the ranks please don't feel like you have to give any more back, you have more than earned it. To be clear, all Contributors and above for both PinballX and GameEx will be looked after with the upcoming changes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
