Make a thread in the OT and I'll provide links. Until then, we've deviated enough from the topic and I'd rather not inconvenience everyone else by getting this thread closed.

I like steam but I don't often buy the games on steam.

steam is still cheaper than retail in australia

i know bfbc2 was $89 retail in australia pre order but $49 on steam
ozgameshop is pretty cheap but its not australian - if you look them up they are from uk (nothing wrong with that just stating its not an australian shop) nobody rips off australians more than australian retail prices

never buy a game from a shop in australia - NEVER

I have used Steam since the beta, I can count the number of problems I have had with it on one hand since that time.

Being on Steam has absolutely zero drawbacks for PS2.

Great move overall for SOE. Will give the game even more visibility.

Couldn't care less personnally. Steam or not steam the game will be awesome.

Steam is cheaper then any other business and have summer and winter sales that gotten 75% off most products during those times.

Funny how I can use Gamersgate,D2D or Greenmangaming and buy a steam game from them for less than it sells on steam.

This basically depends on your Country. Mostly, EU pays 50€ for a game they could order for 40€ on a disk. The Sales are the best point to buy products, "normal" bought products are usually 10€ more expansive than going to shop and get a physical disk...
