Nuts, I need the Tropico 3 DLC to make my Tropico 3 complete.

Probably gotta wait for that to go on sale in Steam (This is because my Tropico 3 vanilla is in Steam).

I was just thinking about that.

But better not risk it because you won't be able to sell your Steam version.

Not sure about Gamer's Gate version.

I've check thru the price... aren't much attractive as Steam. At least for me.
I was looking into this

http://www.gamersgate.com/DD-W40KP/warhamm...of-war-platinum
Normal Price was $29.95, 50% Discount would be $14.97

But in Steam
http://store.steampowered.com/sub/1120/

The same package cost me on normal price $14.97 only. if there's at least a 50% discount or more, it would be less than $10 already.
LOL

I don't think you can sell as well.
It's the same thing like when you purchase your games thru EA directly.
It will be tagged under your account and it's not transferable.

The only thing is they don't use clients to run, instead using Web Based UI to download the games.

Gamers Gate have also much more sales than Steam and put lots of games in sales each time.

They also have different games than Steam, some "smaller" games that could be interesting for some.
For me I went to them for a Paradox strategy game that Steam did not want on their platform.

Personally I check Impulse, Steam and GamersGate sales pretty often through that website that shows all of the sales in one place, you can find some good bargain sometimes smile.gif

Can't get the steam link you're referring to. unless its this? DoW - Platinum Which is $29.99 now.

If i had to choose, i'd tend to lean on a vendor that don't let me choose where i want to install my game! That's pretty much my beef on steam. Can't they just give us an option or something? It can be done but meh.. to go thru links and what nots for every game...

Forgot to put the link to that website that shows all sales: Here

Go to the second tab on top, shows Impulse, Steam, Direct Drive and GamersGate

Updated very very quickly, helped me not miss some good sales on non Steam platform before smile.gif

And yes, to be able to choose where you install the games is a good point in my opinion too.

Perhaps you try searching for anthology version of DoW using the US proxy.

Anthology cost $14.99 only

I like the UFO After series. However, I probably give this a pass due to the fact that I have too many games as it is.

So far Disc 3 is reviewed as inferior to King's Bounty/HoMM V. I have King's and i'm tired of HoMM series for now. I can wait for it to go on sales smile.gif
