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.

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!

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.
