    I just wondering, did anyone else buy more than one copy of the game? I did it because a few month ago I wanted to play LAN with one of my friends, and since he wasn't sure he would enjoy it, he didn't want to buy it, so I did, and I don't regret it. My 2nd copy have been borrowed out to friends, after which a few of them did get their own.

    When local LAN is out, I might not use that 2nd copy so much, since I don't need to use my bandwidth if I have a friend over and we play together. But It's always good to have if we ever decides to go online, and play against others.

    Bought one for my girlfriend, although she never really plays it. (Was to be expected):p

    It's the thought that counts, right?


    Right!?

    It is? I thought it was only offline mode via a local server, I didn't think it was possible for anyone to connect to it. Now I must test it

    Yep, you can play LAN. Heck you can actually host an online server, but you'll need to use command line operations to join, as there'd be no ui. (Cola is setting up the ui now)

    Anyway, you can just hand copies of PA to your friends (I mean literal copies of the files, that's it) and play together, without every signing in.

    Basically the glory days of no DRM are back, lan parties, hoh!

    Think I got 5 now. 2 for myself, 3 for people that wanted but couldn't afford it at the time.

    Yeah worth a shot, if she wants to play it (usually when I want to play it and she's bored) she only want to play it with me and then I end up doing almost all the work late game because she never really played a game next to portal . So I partially understand why she wouldn't like it that much since she never played any RTS at all :p

    bought the first copy directly from uber in august, but for some reason, i almost always had ssl errors during login

    just to doublecheck, i bought another one through steam 2 weeks ago and it's been rock solid every time, so...

    sigh

    at least i'm up and running now!

    Yep, I bought a copy for me and a friend. Nearly bought 3 with the 50% sale recently but held off from that at the time.

    I'm awaiting the boxed Collector's Edition to become available on Amazon UK. Currently Game seems to be the only one selling it, and I'd rather not play it at all if it meant giving money to them.
