IMHO, you guys are wasting too much time and energy on this GreenLight bs… just get uTorrent (et al) and be ready… that is your best bet. As I said before, we are all going to be playing and replaying this like a mofo… who cares if you play through from your torrent or mirror downloaded version, then uninstall and reinstall in Steam later…
And I would not at all be surprised if there was someone, somewhere, just watching that clock tick down… every waking moment. That is a sad thought, for sure.
