    Nevermind I found out for myself that they are in the US but their retail stores are only found in:
    California, Texas, Arizona, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Nevada, Oregon, & Washington...

    I wonder if other stores will price match them. :)

    What crazyanz said. Any game you register with Steam (except maybe Bioshock) you can download an infinite number of times on as many computers as you like.

    Why do you think Steam is so great?! :D
