If it was on Steam the maybe, but I didn't like it enough to be bothered with any other service. It's not that it wasn't a good game, just not really for me. Didn't make me feel good.

You don't avoid Games for Windows by getting it off Steam, because it will be installed and used anyway. There is no way around it. In this case, Steam is just kinda in the way. I love Steam, but logging into two different services to play 1 game was kinda stupid.

Really? That game was awesome. It had some weak points, but it made me feel like....like... I am vengeance. I amthe NIGHT! I am BATMAN!!

Yeah, I know it will still have to go through Games for Windows, just like with GTA IV and Red Faction or any of these other ones I have. I was mainly talking about how I'll always have it right there on my account with Steam. Also, I always have Steam up and running so it's not like it would be a hassle for me to launch a game from it. Now if you never used it, then yeah I see what you're saying about it being a pain.

Amazing deal, if I didn't already have it, I'd buy it now! Good game too, especially fun trying to find all the hidden things around the island.

Smile Downloading Right Now

Server is either real busy or just not as fast as STEAM servers. It is taking a while. Does anybody know how many PCs we can install this on? Are there any limits?

Can't wait for the next deal on March 5th!!!!!

I hope we get some better deals than that. The Batman:AA was a good deal, I hope it wasn't the only good deal.
