Sorry mate I can't comment on that, it has something to do what some people do in the dark while I prefer lights on :yeah:

Yeah, right, sure it will! I especially love the fact that Steam distributated games are usually double the cost of a retail box, available from Amazon UK for instance. No thanks, Steam can go take a running jump, I will not be ripped off.

But Steam was the only place I could get UBM.

Except for the part where Steam wouldn't talk to me. I couldn't download anything from them because I'm outside of their 'zone of influence'. Oh, I'm in Salt Lake City, Utah. I guess that's not part of the United States.

I did finally get it when SH4 Gold was released...on disc.

Hrm ordering Star Trek Online having the DVD sent by mail cost $39.99 at one place, but ordering it online for digital download in Europe cost €49.95.

I would be paying almost twice as much than anyone in USA this way. This is bull.

It's best not to try to rouse them to reality, unless you are trained. They might become violent.

Now THAT'S PIRACY!

good joke. The same happend with Anno 1404 and every steam game. Anno 1404 sold very well and steam is going to replace the retail shops in some years

Big differences between Steam and the new UBI DRM/OSP. It's one thing to annoy customers with some extra hoops they need to jump through (Steam). Its another thing to require a constant uninterrupted umbilical cord back to their servers. (UBI) VERY, VERY BIG difference!

As a frequent traveller (and travelling is when I have the time to play games the most), I can deal with Steam and the need for an occassional phone home to the Steam servers. The UBI thing however is a complete NO-GO.

Screw 'em! SH3 will live on! :arrgh!:

Perhaps it wasn't as widely distributed on release, I had no problems finding it on Amazon for a little over £5, new and factory sealed.

You couldn't download at all? See, this is why I avoid Steam, they have such damned odd policies. Not to mention their rubbish distribution servers, which chug along like a dial up modem.

Nope. The only copy I could find was on Ebay. From Hong Kong. $30 US.

Then Gold was released and all was light and joy again.
