If you add a US address that will not be enough as at the time of checkout you will notice that it has used your default UK one so...
it will offer you a clicky thing to change the address on that last page of purchase. Change that to the US one you have entered and then you are able to complete your purchase.

So using a US address with a UK card isn't an issue? I always assumed that the billing address was verified along with the card credentials and that the both need to match.

it is verified but the billing address doesnt have to match the ship to address, it's only the first time that you use a company that it normally has to match. I ship stuff to a number of different uk address from Amazon, for example, using the one card and billing address. Adding a US shipping address is no different really
What do you mean? i just answered the question regarding max payne 3 - it's a steam game, you get a code that you can use redeem with steam.
use something else then?

Can't use something else, my debit card has zero pounds
would BFBC2 be steam activated?
Thanks for the X-Com reply
For me I bought the collection I noted. I am then taken to a page which includes all the game keys which I then used to register each on Steam. You get the chance to use an Amazon downloader but I am doing that through Steam.
I got an email to confirm the order but the keys are as noted above.
Just bought the X-Com games and they too have now been added to my Steam library.
The Crusader II game is similar to a Total War campaign map style on steroids complete with several headaches. Got to be worth a punt at the price of all the DLC included..?
Yeah Paradox games like Crusader and Victoria are really good Grand Strategy games. I love Hearts of Iron, so ill probs pick them up too!

When does the steam sale start?
Hopefully Monday?
Also Crusader Kings II is £30 on steam, getting it in a collection with other superb games for $12 is AMAZING! Steam can't beat that price

if it's steam it will tell you on the product page. if it doesnt say steam then you can safely bet that it isnt steam.
It doesn't include the latest DLC the Sword of Islam but as I am not too bothered about playing with a Muslim nation as yet I will wait a while to see how much I enjoy the game before deciding to buy it.
Does nobody actually read the posts and just ask questions that have already been answered.
- All activate on Steam on the DL page you will have the option for a Steam Key version or non Steam key version.
- Just make sure you tick, Steam DRM, in the Amazon options
- Pick an address like in Delaware State which pays no tax and use that as your delivery address - no receipts or anything get posted.
- On your account you will now have a library from which you can DL and access the game codes.

If they did then this forum, and many others, would contain about a tenth of the posts that they do.
Can't quite decide if I should go for the Max Payne 3 or just wait a while for the Steam sale. The Rockstar pass at £19.99 for all the future (2012 releases) DLC seems expensive though considering you don't know what will actually be released in this year.
Thanks for posting this, was kinda unsure how to purchase (UK Resident), but this worked fine!
