    Anywhere I can get a DiRT 3 steam activation code cheaply and legitimately? I can find DVD copy for < $20, but Steam is still $50 and really need/want Steam or digital, not necessarily Steam.

    May not be many copies out there for sale still but since codes came for a free copy w/ purchase of gpu a long time ago many of those codes are probably out there from personal owners.

    Also new dirt game on the way, so that will probably lead to a sale of sorts on steam.

    Make sure if you do go that route of getting a free copy code that they mail you the actual slip or scan/take a picture of it.

    Dirt Showdown is the game theu\y ended up with once they killed off the rally part of the game.
    But they do offer a demo off it so its not all bad and seems Codemasters have given up on GFWL now.

    Here, ebay has it for $7.99 it's a great deal in my opinion. Seller has over 600 feedback and has a 100% record...

    Buying one of the AMD promo codes, as stated previously, should be the cheapest option. Here's an even cheaper one ($5.00) on eBay.
