Could just grab the torrent or whatever instead. I see the game available for download in a few spots.

Dirt2 is now gone from my steam game list and i see where it's been delayed to maybe the 8th so yeah time for the alternative method.

Yeah I picked up the downloaded version last night. Runs fantastically at max settings, usually in the 75-85fps range. A hgue boost if you turn hdr off, but to me hdr is whats making this game look so great.

You can get the pirated version, but key that comes with the 5800 cards is just for steam, so you cant play online.

They sure pooched the Steam release. If they ever do fix it, then I'll probably be fighting with Live and it's extra stupidness.
