That shows the price as $44 which would mean its the full edition anyway so in fact you would be paying for both as the upgrade edition is $22 and doesn't say anything about coming with race for free.

[James Carter]

Yes, sorry.

It was only after trying to purchase the bundle I discovered that.

Seems as though Valve have made a bit of a cock-up on this one.

Have sent them a support ticket, shall see what they say.

There is a discussion about it here:

Pricing - Steam Users' Forums

[Rick Stoltz]

will be ordering the add-on on monday

[Jens Piskorsch]

44,99$ for full version is ok, thats 37,50€ incl. german taxes - better than 56,-€ in german electronic market

[Sam Michaels]

13 pounds isnt bad for a whole crap load of cars and a giant track

ANYONE able to verify if you can add your GTR Evo DVD product key to STEAM then download through STEAM as you could with RACE 07.

[Dan Powers]

Only way to check that i would think is When It is actually available through steam itself.

Serials already work now (100% sure about this!)
If you buy on Steam its on hold till Steam officially release those as well.

ok, i've never purchased thru steam - call me an old fuddy duddy that like to get a piece of plastic to hold and call his own - do you know if upgrade will be available in store too or just as download?

i guess the same goes for STCC as well...

Thanks for the posts.

Have ordered from abroad, mainly because I am a picky git and the packaging is much better than the naff DVD cases we get over here, proper full size cardboard boxes with nice artwork etc etc.

Anyone who has seen the GTR2 "Game of the year" packaging will know what I mean.

All this means I wont have the disc for a few days but the seller said they would email me the product key asap.

Of course, it is not known for sure if product works work "Cross" region but I will find out in a few hours

If it does, I will be playing GTR Evo in a few hours, probably before you lot who ordered on STEAM

If it doesnt work, I will have a nice box and just await my UK pre-order.
