tlm_77 Posted October 12, 2011 Share Posted October 12, 2011 Since SI have taken all the fun out of the yearly race to find a store locally that's managed to get the game in early and is willing to sell it to desperate soles like me who simply can't wait...or those who, also like me find themselves at Asda at midnight etc... I've decided to buy FM12 via Steam. £29.99 but hey, if Steam's as good as some people say, then it should be worth it, right? So far, my purchase has been authorised but I can't download it yet (I know I can't play it until 21st but thought when I'd bought it I could then download it ready - will this automatically happen soon?) Anyone else doing the above? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWaRFeGa Posted October 12, 2011 Share Posted October 12, 2011 Eh? 3 hours ago you slammed Steam and created a thread about pre-ordering a hard copy. http://community.sigames.com/showthread.php/277914-If-the-boxed-FM12-comes-BEFORE-21.10.11-can-I-play-it?p=7155014&viewfull=1#post7155014 That's a very swift change of heart.

"Slammed"? I think that's a bit of a strong word. I said I don't trust Steam, still dont but I've decided to give it a go, if I don't give it a go, I can't really comment on how good/bad Steam is... So please don't try to be so 'clever' and make out I'm saying something I'm not. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnhughthom Posted October 12, 2011 Share Posted October 12, 2011 I've bought the last 4 games from Steam, gone with Greenmangaming this year, £10 less and works exactly the same as a Steam copy anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kriss Posted October 12, 2011 Share Posted October 12, 2011 There's already a thread about how people are purchasing FM12, ta. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
