They've now responded to my initial email and said I was refunded, but I don't see the reverse charge yet.

Give it a day. I did it via email. :)

I see Dawn of War II is 25 bucks at Steam.

If anyone wants Madden 10 cheap for the 360, Microcenter has an in-store deal for this weekend only where if you put $5 down on a pre-order, you get a coupon for $25 off when it releases.  Bottom line, you end up getting the game for $35 plus tax.

I already have the game on pre-order with Amazon, but I might do this Microcenter deal so I have the game the day it releases, & then flip my Amazon copy whenever it gets to me.

Well, still haven't played much Madden 09

I never played 09 at all.  One thing I like about 10 is that they've slowed the game down a bit, so that the players run at more realistic speeds.  I've always had a hard time adjusting from NCAA to Madden since in Madden everything just seems to happen way too fast.

Why is it that gamersgate price for eu3 complete is 28 bucks, but i can get it for 13 including shipping, from ebay?

Retail box, not used or anything from one of those ebay store thingies, not just a dude selling his copy.

This is dumb.

Fallout is now available on Steam if gog.com was too hard for you.

Amazon has low prices like that too.

The only games I'd be interested in (MLB 2K9 and Call of Juarez) aren't available outside North America.

Everything is that much faster in the pro game. :P

Gonna try to get the X-Com bundle.
It's kinda annoying how I have to always contact tech support when buying games online, since my billing address is in the States, while my ISP is Korean. Steam and Stardock fixed the problem pretty quickly, and Gamersgate never had a problem, so hopefully Direct2Drive will sort things out quickly.

I got Bioshock and STALKER Chernobyl.  Bioshock seems fun; this is my first time playing it.

Does it require Fable II?

How do you download it?
