You could use a steamgifter.com to gift the game to someone at slightly inflated American prices.

Nice! Sorry but I’m happy ’cause steam lowered price for Lithuania! :) See we still don’t have Euro and because of that game prices seem very high. I just wish they made the price 44.99Lt that would be approx 13€ :) Now the game price is 118.29Lt which is still pretty high for the local folk.

I concur with and follow Secu|Fox there.

Also, have you noticed how L4D2 is already listed as a “Top Seller” on Steam Store… although it’s not even OUT yet?

Steam is bullshit. Why don’t they listen?

The article should use some more underlined or bold fonts on the German censorship part. Cause this is also a real problem.

I’m not buying L4D2 until it gets around 30€. Period.
And yeah, I can wait. (I can also get workarounds heh… thank you teh interweb).

@just_do_it_ffs

I wouldn’t strongly advised not to try it.
If Valve finds out/suspect they will certainly ban both accounts.
Check Google about that issue.
Be advised that Valve crosscheck you credit card/ Paypal account nationality against your IP address. Which I think is just an other case of discrimination based on your IP address.

Anyway when I was on holidays in UK I used the opportunity to benefit from the cheap prices in UK. I bought two games from Steam, but I had to talk with Valve Support first to accept my NOT UK PayPal account.
Otherwise they would suspended my account for investigation.
As you see Valve can be pretty mean.
