Download. I can download at 2.6mb/s so if I lost the files its still quicker to download than using a disk.

Having the disk with me just feels like every penny spent was worth it. lol. Only time I read the manual is when I take a bog . And that only comes with the disk.

LOL
Unsure yet, 10mb/s download so steam is viable, but as I'll be working on release so I might as well have it ordered from Play.

I usually prefer to have the DVD, but if there is an upgrade option for Race 07 then I might just download it.

I would download it like I did with RACE07, but I noticed steam are not always the cheapest and the quickest at getting games onto steam.

So it will be out on DVD before steam eventually gets it i think.

When you download a game via steam, can you burn the install on a dvd? (To avoid re-downloading it in case of reinstalment)

You can, I've done it with all the games I've got via Steam, and restored them from the disk too.

My brain says STEAM (No disc, no serial numbers, steam community features etc)

My heart says DVD (Err... mmm, a manual/leaflet and is 2 days before the STEAM release)

I still pre-ordered the DVD though

Wish

Price and availability dependant ... it is nice to have a shiny new boxed DVD, but as it seems to be a bit of a "technological black hole" down here here in the far SW corner of Europe, I will probably just get it off Steam ... got a 24Mbit DSL line at least, so won´t take too long.

Hi,

I was going to buy it boxed, but I read the expansion is not coming out in the shops till the 16th, so I ordered it via Steam.

I prefer DVD, but i have already Race 07 on DVD, and i prefer buying GTR evo as an expansion than a full bundle (less expansive).
