    I bought it from there when it was $17.
    Just a heads up for people who have dual HDD setups. I have a SSD for Windows and HDD for data. I installed Capsule onto my HDD and there are no settings in capsule that you can change the install directory for games. It DLed Batman onto my SSD and I couldnt extract it because I had no more room (The game is 14GB, so 14GBx2, 1 for zip file and 1 for extract), I tried to contact support but its non existant. Anway I ended up extracting the game into a folder on my data HDD and used the key they e-mailed me.

    Damn, I got this on PS3 and haven't really gotten around to playing it. I'm tempted to go trade in my PS3 copy and buy this on PC. I could probably get at least $20 trade in.

    Are you...who think you are? On a certain blog?
    If i were you i would just finish up the ps3 copy and maybe get the GOTY edition later on for pc as right now it is very demanding and not optimized.

    I would really, really love to buy that game. Unfortunately, I match rather prefer all my Purchased PC games kept to Steam as much as possible.

    A lot of games from GMG are Steam keys but this one is not. So at your own risk kinda thing.

    I got it on Origin for this same price near xmas. Origin I consider pretty much on par with Steam for the most part so keep your eyes on a sale there as well.

    Think I have a 40% off Steam coupon for this game as well...

    :confused:

    I think I'll pass. I thought that GMG was like GG or GOG, but they demand you install their software, kinda don't want to. Don't need any more software. Also don't need more games, exams are comin' :D. Even at this price :D.

    Dont forget that you also need GFWL for the DLC so SSD users with low storage space should change the settings in the GFWL client to change the folder directory for DLC from C:\ to a bigger HDD or something.
