Will you buy the disc version or the Steam version?

I probably get nice BOX Limited Edition from local store, which I guess will cost the same or even less as steam standard edition.
From other hand I would like to have game when it's released, so that depends.

Disc, so I can mount the box on a wall and read the manual when I'm in the john
download, last thing i want to deal with is discs..they always end up laying around being useless ...i just redownload what i want with steam...i am never so desperate that i cant wait an hour to download a game
he lives in oz? I only have 6gb but that's because my location limits me to wireless...
also instinct if I got into the beta I was thinking of making a crapper manual for that exact purpose
Thank god the fourth option has 0 votes....
it would be kind of strange if it had any more though
Someone has voted
well, 1/135 is a good margin.Someone has voted
But it brings up the valid question of why that option is there at all; I mean, how many people would go into this thread determined not to buy the game?

Same, and it's always nice to know that I always HAVE a physical copy and don't have to depend on a 3rd party service to access something I paid for.
Not that I don't like Steam, because I do. That said, I only buy games through Steam when they are at ridiculously low prices!
I would prefer buying the retail copy if there would be a way of getting it as earky as the steam version but that's kinda impossible so there's no way around getting the digital copy for me
Both.
If I could I would just buy the disk only, because I like a boxed version of the games I play the most (same reason to buy music albums).
The only reason I will 'buy' both is because I won ROHOS on the steam contest before christmas. Don't think that Valve will send me a disk
So will get the disk when... if it appears in Dutch retail stores.

Disc. I got the big red box for RO1 with Tank cards and maps ect. So RO2 Box is a must have.

Download of course. There is little point in buying the box as you'll need Steam for both versions anyway. And after a while you'll stop caring you even have the box (remember, you can burn the game on DVD and print the cover yourself). The other reason is that I'll get to play RO2 right on the day of release. Heck, download might even be my only option. RO1 has never been in Dutch stores, unfortunately...
Unless they release a limited edition that I can pre-order through a Dutch webshop and still get to play on release day or at most a few days later, download is the way to go for me.

The point is that the boxed version uses to be cheaper, and there is the art inside, and the possible extras.
It'll all depend on those things.
But not to thouse of us who probably can't buy the boxed version, as it is unlikely to be sold in our contries
But if there is a really cool Special-edition, with cool stuff that i'd want, i may look into importing one just to get the extras.
But i'm definately not waiting for an import just to get the game, even if it might be slightly cheaper, that could take a week! I can't wait that long to play HoS!
