How To Get My Game Back

Hi, a while ago i got the hump with my game and it well, took a dip in the lake near my house (throwing distance out the window).

Anyways, im starting to feel the urge to play again and was wondering how i would go about legally getting the game without having to buy it. I didnt register it on steam i just loaded it from the dvd. I do still have the prodiuct key though.

i have looked on steam but i find it confusing and well, er a bit **** tbh.

Any help would be mucho appreciated.

Best thing: find someone who has a disk copy, install it using your key. This is legal AFAIK. (Don't flame me if it's not) Other than that I don't know of any other legal way

As far as i know you can enter the product key directly in steam and gain access to the downloadable game.

Use steam and click on library once you have an account set up. Click the add game button at the bottom and use the activate product on steam button type in your key and voila

Hi, thanks for the reply.

Im a real noob with steam. i have an account, but when i go in all i can see is links selling me games. I cant find any library link or anything.

Dont panic everyone! Its sorted, i forgot that steam installs on your pc and was going through the website rather than the exe.

Duh

of course, if you get the hump with the game again, this will now meen that you have to dump the whole computer in the lake

I wouldn't advise this. I hear it could cause minor damage.

I'll just have to keep a stack of dvd-r's by the computer.

Or close the window.

You could always go swimming in the lake and retrieve the disk, you never know, it might still work once it has time to dry off.
