[quote name='Gamelore']Gah, thought this a thread on buying King's Bounty for $10, not for
leasing bits. Anyone know a good place to buy it?[/quote]
This is for buying the game, only difference AFAIK is it's downloaded entirely to your HDD, not installed from a DVD. Unless there's some fishy DRM with this particular game, once you buy it, it's yours.
[quote name='JazzFlight']How is Gamersgate? Is the general consensus here that it's as good as something like GOG.com or Stardock's Impulse? I wouldn't compare it to Steam, that's just too high a standard...[/quote]
Not quite preferable to Steam, but I have one game from Gamersgate and it works just fine, no problems, and there's no client needed to play. I will say though, recently I tried emailing their support to find out if a game had SecuROM bundled with it(Gamersgate doesn't appear to list this one way or the other..), and it took them probably 4 days to get back to me. So that may be a downer as far as their customer service goes.
