plus it's a Steamworks title, so it'll register with Steam for future downloads!

Damn I didn't know that! No reason not to pick it up then. Ceekay what the hell are you doing up at this hour? Do you prowl the Steals and Deals forum 24 hours per day?

Been back and forth over Civ V for a year - not being weaned on the series - but I hear the entry point for new players is incorporated into V and the price is right. Resistance is often futile....

LOL, no, the dogs woke me up to go outside so I was surfing and planning how to spend more money on Steam.

How does that work? Do you download it from Gamersgate and Steam somehow puts it in your library?

You'll get a serial number when you buy the game and you can simply register that number with Steam. You don't even need to download the GG copy.

just read this in their description:
"Note: This product requires a 3rd party download and account"
Is that Steam? Because if it is I'm all over this for $11

Sigh. I need to relax and read a bit before posting, to avoid looking like a rabid fool again.
Yes, you can use the game key on Steam. Also, the conversion from the Euro makes the price closer to something like $9.95, which is better than my original post. Sorry so many posts for one point.

Can you buy from Gamersgate.uk? I have an account with Gamersgate.com but I couldn't sign in with that account. Would I have to make a new account in order to buy it?

Oops never mind-sales over. I just have no time for a Civ game anyways and buy the time I actually would have gotten around to playing it it would probably be the same price again only this time including DLC.

Pulled the trigger and activated on Steam. Had a free upgrade to deluxe version (from my GTS 450 purchase last year) - also worked on Steam. Nice!
