QUOTE(ZRong223 @ Sep 18 2010, 05:29 PM) The recent Steam discounts/deals always disappoint me... What games are you hoping to be on sale? The games I want are yet to be released, so I cant say I'm disappointed even if they make a whole week of Railworks sale

Why some games like The Sims series and FIFA series are not distributed on Steam? To fully utilise EA Store?

Gamersgate only have 1 expansion and not the vanilla version while both Direct2Drive and Impulse have the vanilla version and all the expansions.They also have FIFA series. What gives? Region restriction?

What gives? Region restriction? Region-related issue is the best answer I guess. If you browse to GG via VPN, all the expansions are available. Compared to them, I'm of the opinion that Steam is the fairest when it comes to the availability of the games that are being placed under discount tags. Sure, there are some games that are not available in our region such as GTA IV but you'll be amazed with the amount of discounted games being locked to the US region with the other DD platforms. Steam is a b*tch though when it comes to trying to fool the system to purchase region-locked games. This post has been edited by talexeh: Sep 21 2010, 10:25 AM

I've tried to do the same during the last Summer Sale but the thing just won't go through, even with a fake US address.
