STEAM now UK pricing!

[Duke]

I was expecting us to get the opposite and have prices much higher than before.

 

[Dist]

I may actully get world at war now, its price is a bit more reasonable. I know its not rated as cood as CoD4, but i need a decent FPS to play. Another advantage with localised currency is that i wont be charged £1 extra per purchase by my bank (lloyds tsb charge £1 each time something is purchased in a currency other then the pound)

great news. Can't believe the civ 3 price! Bought! Flatout ultimate carnage £6 yet championship manager 07 £20+ think it was 27.
What bargins are you picking up?

 

[dirtydog]

Some nice savings there, good news about the VAT being included in the price on the item page as well.

I would urge anyone with a passing interest in stratagy games to get the Civilization 4 Complete pack now. It converted me into a turn based whore .

For £26.99? You can get it for £9.99 in online stores.

gg valve. this is as much fail as that value box game you released last year.

How the **** do you have your account back?

Fingers crossed your swiftly banned.

The only problem is direct2drive is cheaper on some titles than Steam still.

Does D2D let you download things more than once?

 

[Delvis]

So are there still taxes to be added....Or are games how much they say they are initially....rather than adding loads of tax

That depends, on whether you actually read the rest of the thread

Just bought Flatout: UC for £5.99, but upon installing through steam nod32 picks up the launcher.exe as a virus. Anyone heard of this? The game has continued to download through steam though.

False positive (or whatever you call the thing)

 

[Delvis]

Meh....Still get GTA IV cheaper from elsewhere

i remember the demo for that years ago includes the worse type of securom that creates undeletable reg keys and folders and some UA7service or some kind of crap like that

Why would you pay for that abomination

 

[Delvis]

Oh you downloaded it?

Joke.

Why? Because I don't own a 360, and I don't ever intend on owning one.

I won't buy it yet anyway, I don't have the funding

 

[DampCat]

Jesus, i paid like £27 for Soulstorm 2 days ago, now it's 16.99

Heh, no i dont have it. I was messing about but it looks rubbish.

K i'll check it out. Have restored the file from quarantine anyway. It's not confirmed virus, just says probably a variant of etc etc, so it's just heuristics.

One reason I haven't brought much via Steam

A lot of they're prices have been borked from day one....Like COD 4 WAW being less expensive than COD 4.
