    Umm...I doubt that as the vaunted Steam is a bug ridden mess. Read the forums. MANY users have issues with the digital d/l completing properly. Amazing really as this should be fairly basic stuff.

    If I knew this was going to such an ordeal I would have bought retail.

    The people having trouble are an unlucky and vocal minority. I think that the majority of people had a smooth download and install. It seriously sucks for the unlucky ones though, and I wish Valve would do something to fix it. A certain number of problems are almost inevitable in a release of this scale however .

    I'm way too paranoid not to buy retail.

    I always know that d/l'ing a title has a chance to be a force march...therefore, I would never do anything other than buy the retail disc.

    I need it physically. I just don't trust the d/l process. Further, you can uninstall and reinstall in minutes with the disc. D/L? Who knows.
