I recently purchased a game from Steam (Max Payne 3) and after I download the full 30 gig game it tells me "cannot connect to key server". After several emails with their support they inform me that Steam doesn't have enough CD keys, yet they continue selling the game on their website. It has been about a week now and I still cannot even play this game.
Plus, not only does that require a Steam account but you also have to have a Rockstar account. What has PC gaming become?
- lsh 13y agoI bought it on sale months ago, booted it up and was told I had to sign up for this Rockstar account and haven't got passed that yet. I'm sure it's a wonderful game.
- dm2 13y agoI've only played single player but it's a pretty decent game, lots of cutsceens and loading screens though.
- voltagex_ 13y agoI keep a library of cracks for games that I own on Steam, it's one way to ensure I have access to what I bought. It's looking like it will be needed for lots of GFWL games now, too.
- blub 13y agoIf you want to enjoy PC gaming buy from gog.com, I think that's the only guarantee that it won't have some crap DRM. If you want to play recent titles you're out of luck...
- karlmdavis 13y agoAlso Humble Bundle.
- jhasse 13y agoHumble ->Indie<- Bundle. There are Humble Bundles with DRM.
- hatchoo 13y agoBought Far Cry 3 and it does the same. When you launch the game on Steam it installs UPlay which requires you to have a UPlay account as well. With an account you can launch the game from Uplay.
