    Why isn't "hi-jacking the boats/planes" an option? That's what I'm doing.

    What if I'm pre-ordering it, which is buying from a retailer?

    Or what if someone else is pre-ordering it, which is buying online?

    Isn't buying online the same as downloading? I don't get what the difference is. You're not talking about downloading illegally, are you? Because talking about that isn't allowed in these forums.

    Sorry, your poll options don't make a lot of sense.

    You can buy it boxed from an online store or you can buy a digital download.

    So there is a difference.

    I am pre-ordering a download from a box in a retail store though the internet... I asked for this special... just to skew the poll.

    (hehehe)

    Ah... right... of course. My general state of confusion with the poll made it hard to think.

    I'm not sure if I'll buy retail or online. I'd like to have a box....but that ugly box...ugh. I guess I can always print out my own.

    I will probably buy the boxed set from a retailer like Gamestop, activate the game on Steam, then install from the dvd. Unless Steam offers a good discount for pre-purchase, then I will buy the game through Steam.

    For my kids, I will probably buy through Steam, and then use the DVD to install on their computers.

    That way I do not have to download for a week. Between my kids and I, we have 3 gaming computers in the house. Lets say that Duke is 7 gigs, for all of us to download that is 21 gigs of data. To stop all of the downloading, I like to buy 1 boxed set and use the disk to install the game.

    Or,,,, if Steam offers a package deal of some kind, like all of the Duke games for 1 low price, then I would buy through Steam.

    I pre-ordered the BOSE (PC) from Amazon pretty much as soon as it was available.
