![]() ![]() He doesn't physically own the game anymore, but he still owns the key, which means he is able to download it from steam and still play it. When the guy uninstalled it, he probably meant he uninstalled it from his computer but the CD-Key is still registered with his account. Yes, there is nothing you can do to get MW2 to work with your Steam account Unless you buy a new key. I guess I'll just have to wait for Steam Support to email me back and see what's what. So, you're saying that there is no way that I'm going to be able to play this Modern Warfare 2 game? Maybe you're right, I don't know cause I'm totally new to this. ![]() I've tried emailing Steam support, taking a picture of the CD key, etc, etc, but haven't heard back yet. I went home and tried getting it to work, but Steam wouldn't let it work because of the duplicate CD key that was still tied to his account. As for Modern Warfare 2, the guy said that he had it linked to his Steam account, but that he un-installed it, and that I should be able to link it to my steam account. ![]() I haven't played online against anybody yet, so I don't know if that will affect anything. I installed Civ 4, and it seems to be working just fine with no problems. Yesterday, I bought two used PC games from this dude on Craiglist. I also suggest just buying the game new because once they have registered the game onto steam there is no way to get the game back and sell it In the meanwhile, I want to get a few cheap games to keep me busy. On a side note, I'll definitely be buying my fair share of games off Steam and D2D and stuff like that, but I'm going to wait for the really good deals. Is this not the case? How do I make sure I don't get screwed? Since, I'm a total newb when it comes to PC gaming, what do I need to know in terms of buying used PC games? I was orginially under the impression that there wasn't a used PC gaming market, because I thought that the game was tied to the original PC that it was installed on. I've seen some used PC games on my local Craigslist, and I've also seen used PC games on Ebay. All my money went into building the PC, so I don't have tons of cash left over for the games. While $19.99 isn't that much in the grand scheme of things, being the cheap bastard that I am, I would prefer to pay like 5 bucks or 7 bucks, or maybe 10 bucks for most of these games. Here are some of the games I'm interested in: However, being a cheap bastard, I don't want to just run down to the nearest Fry's Electronics and start buying games, nor do I want to buy them on Steam if it isn't one of those amazing sales that they are having. Obviously, I want to play some kick ass games on it. ![]()
