Jon, for some games the only way you can play them is thru Steam. I'm not crazy about Steam as with some of them you are limited on being able to use mods. Even tho there is a way around to get mods working with SH3 on Steam, I would get SH3 thru Amazon.com. But that's up to you. Same with SH4. Both are on Amazon.

Steam keeps track of what you do and how much you play. That's my main gripe along with the limitations. Example. I play X3 Terran Conflict. There were some great mods called Cheats, from the EgoSoft forum, for it when played as a stand-alone game. With Steam there aren't any except for Albion Prelude and Bonus packages that aren't all that great.
