Why I won't buy Penumbra: Black Plague

[Linux.Blue]

If I'm not mistaken, you could get some number or whatever to retrieve the game in case you lose it. as for me, I just burn the game on a CD. it's as good as any other retail game on CD or DVD.
I have a feeling your topic is really just saying "I want the boxed version, but it doesn't sound like it ever will so I'll complain about something else."
Buy it, put it on a CD or DVD, or even make copies. then you have the game, and in case your PC crashes, you still own it. done
