For once I would like everyone(even the pirates) to buy a game instead of pirating it , to show everyone who says PC gaming is doomed and shut their mouths. Also to support the developers and encourage them to make more wonderful games on PC .

I have a coupon at Best Buy so I will get my copy their. I like having the actual box and stuff. Steam is awesome though, I just prefer having the goodies that come with the game.

Steam is a gamers nightmare. I assure Crytek that they will make even less sales this time round! They can blame whatever they want, the end result will be the same.
Steam sucks for the following reasons; 1. Download a whole game ? <--< You guys are not normal or Americans without bandwith limits. Once you have to download the game the second time, i consider you a waste of bandwith and probably one of the many variables countries such as mine have had bandwith restrictions since day 1. 2. Something happens to your account and its all over. 3. Breaching the privacy of the individual and the freedom to play whenever he/she wants without the consent or knowledge of some 3rd party company. Ill like to point out wolf2009 that even Pirates pay for originals when they come across something they like. Its noones fault except Crytek's that Crysis was a shit game, and it Multiplayer was a rip off of the older Unreal Tournaments. If MP looked like SP then maybe they would not have failed as much. Ive already been assured that the sequal will be just as shit. <--< Having negative expectations might result in me paying more interest this time around, because looking back at all the things Crytek promised and what they actually delivered was a major let down. |

Haytch: there are no download limits in Europe either. Only thing is that connections are biased towards downloading and upload part is much slower. Like mine that is 8megs down and 1meg up.
Hope they pull some serious fibers to Australia some day, so that you would get unlimited download too. And in future they come up with a way to lower ping, so I can play with Aussies too online

if you download steam games more than once, i'd have to think something is definately wrong with you. You can simply copy the files, or use the feature steam has had for years and back them up to DVD.

I agree. This has bugged me about Steam for awhile. It would be nice to add the orginal serial key via Steam and download the lastest ver.

Just so you know.. Steam is an option to get games, you can always physically buy them. Calm down! ![]() As for Warhead sucking, it may, it may not. I take SOME reviews with a gain of salt. I think Crytek was rushed into releasing Crysis to coincide with Vista/DX10 ASAP. Thats my personal view on Crysis. Warhead IMO will be exactly what Crysis should have been. An awesome game.
