    Vinny was actually the first person I told when I saw that EA had gotten up on Steam.

    Vinny may no longer be screwed, but what about Europe?

    Now, does the fact that these games are on Steam remove the install limits?  Or are you getting double the DRM like Bioshock?  Vinnie could end up worse off, not better.

    Seriously, man.  lol  That thing is evil.  It kept fucking with 2142 on my own personal comp, so I'd have to go back to EA Link so it would work, then upgrade to Downloader, then back to Link, and so forth until I just uninstalled the fucker...

    ...AND I BOUGHT A RETAIL COPY FROM THE SHELF!!!  *ugh*

    Vinny, your rear orifice will no longer be abused to the shoddy conglomerate attempt to be Steam!!!  BWAHAHA!!!
