    Thanks for the tip though but the game is useless to most of us since it does not work with vista or windows 7.

    I heard someone said they are gonna patch it to work with these 2 windows version but I'm unable to check its validity yet. However there are already plenty of unofficial fixes on its steam forum.

    up top for those who hasnt seen this :)

    for those who joined the group on time like me, check your game list on Steam. You should see the game sitting there waiting to be installed :)
