Over the weekend I bought Bioshock, Bioshock 2, Dead Space, and Dead Space 2 for about $25 through the weekend discount. Yet another reason why I use Steam so fuck you Origin.

Holy shit, I just looked at the Halloween deals (which are still going, by the way). I'm accustomed to great deals from Steam, but god damn, 4 games for 5 bucks? Relatively new games for about 3 bucks? There's really no excuse to pirate old games anymore.
I wish I could take advantage of Steam, but since I now live in Thailand but my accounts are in the US, I cannot buy anything from them.
I had this problem when I was deployed.  If you send support an email, they will send you a link so you can buy things through their website, then download them over the client.  It might be a different story since you moved, but they were really accommodating with me.
And yet ANOTHER reason to love Steam!
I love steam and cant wait for DOTA 2.
I hate digital distribution.
Why's that?

Why not? Payment is a bitch, especially where I live. My debit card has never been accepted. Is my money somehow worth less? If so, I really need to tell that to every shop I go to. Don't want to bamboozle them.

 

Not to mention that I prefer to physically own things. Having the White Album on an Itunes account is not my idea of proper ownership. Not that I would ever buy anything from Itunes Store.

I suppose I can see where you're coming from, but I've run into a lot more problems, especially with PC games, having the physical copy instead of buying the digital version.  For example, I've lost the sheet that comes with the CD key for a few PC games during moves, and now they're essentially useless discs.  With Steam I buy a game and it's added to my library so I can uninstall and reinstall at will  through their server.  No need to worry about losing anything, or the disc being damaged and so on.  Most of these companies keep good records of what you've bought, so there's no need to worry about buying something and then it being somehow invalidated later on.

As far as your payment concerns go, I don't know where you live, but support is usually pretty helpful in these cases.
