Feel like saving $4.99 today? Then head over to gameloft.com on your HTC EVO 4G.
You'll be redirected to the EVO-optimized site where you'll see a limited offer to get Let's Golf at no cost if you download the company's HD games bookmark, which can be uninstalled with no consequence after you get the game. As with all of Gameloft's HD games, Let's Golf usually costs a penny shy of $5. The game can't be transferred to another device or reinstalled (even if it's backed up), so don't uninstall it or do a hard reset unless you want to contact Gameloft to see if you can get it again.
It isn't clear how much longer the free game will be available, so get it now!
Under the “free” golf game I selected “get it now” and it dl an HD games app which just takes me to gamelofts site. When i click get it now again it takes me to a page and says i have to pay $4.99 for the golf game.
Same happend to me. Then I realized that when it takes you back to the site, you need to click the “Download Now” button rather than the let’s golf icon. Worked after I did that.
After selecting get it now a few times it finally got the free dl. This doesn’t seem to work on the Dolphin Browser HD you have to use your default browser.
How do I uninstall the HD games bookmark?
I tried it this morning, with the standard browser and it keeps taking me to the $4.99 link. Can’t get a free download.
Great tip, thanks! I did have to actually uninstall Dolphin because even when I opened my standard browser, when I typed in the adress it would switch me back over to dolphin. I’m sure there is an easier way to do it, but it’s simple enough to go back and reinstall Dolphin. Thanks again!
same here, I used the stock browser and it keeps taking me back to the $4.99 page…. I selecting get it now a few times, but still brings me back tot he $4.99 page =(
Odd – I got the game downloaded, opened it, and now it wants to download 147MB of data for the game to run?
yeah, just let it. It’ll work fine after the download.
I sent an email to support, they asked for some info about the phone/carrier, then they emailed me a direct download link. Sweet game, thanks!
BTW, love your blog.
See my comment above.
you have to use mobile.gameloft.com to get the free game. If you use just gameloft.com, it thinks you’re on your desktop. Can’t complain about a free game.
How do I uninstall the HD games bookmark app?
I also would like to know how to uninstall the bookmark once the game has been installed successfully.
Thanks for the heads up Jenn!
Too bad this is the first App I bought when I got my EVO. I had it on my Pre and it was a great game.
I answered my own question:
From your home screen: Menu –> Applications –> Manage applications –> 100% HD Games –> Uninstall
Just downloaded it, thanks for the heads up!
oops, I didn’t see that. They e-mail me a direct link, Thanks!
and Thanks to Jenn too!
Looks like it’s gone.
confirmed not working anymore
You must have changed your user agent. It redirects from the stock browser.
uh, where do i get the hd games bookmark??
wow..that really took a min….so I started on this at 11:40 and after several emails and calls, (yes, they called me to assist in troubleshooting this issue as they are getting many EVO users emailing them.) But as of now 3:15 pm, I now have the game..sweet…thanks Jenn
Aww says its over for today
Pretty good free download. I’m impressed with the Evo games offered through Gameloft. The Assassin’s Creed and Gangstar game are great 3D games also.
They only had it online for six hours. Can’t really see how that is a day? I won’t give my money to them anyways so no big deal.
It’s back up for today. Just got my free game!
I’m downloading it right now and its working, no problems whatsoever. I didn’t know Gameloft had NOVA available for Android, thats a must buy for me
The free game offer seems to be working again. I just downloaded the golf game.
In Dolphin HD, go into Settings and uncheck both “Check Default Browser” & “Set as Default Browser”.
Seems like they re-enabled the offer. I was able to get it yesterday.
It’s still working, Thanks!
