I will get it because it will be a great game and want to support them. Why do so many people hate steam? I prefer downloadable content except for special/limited editions. Steam only needs to check once and then you don't need an internet connection to play. You only need to activate it through steam for retail version. Plus the online will be vastly improved because steam has amazong servers. I personally think programs like Steam are the way of the future and that program is the best thing that happened to PC gamming. Plus you get unlimited installs unlike DRM and you useually get discounts. You can also install your steam account on as many computers as you want but only one of them online at one time. You also get to give friends trial copies unlike retail. You also sometimes get free weekends for certain games. The only problem I have with steam and I mean the ONLY problem is that it is impossible to sell games already activated.

Steam is not evil!
