Comment Read the Fine Print on Boxes First... (Score 1) 478

I picked up Empire: Total War yesterday and didn't notice the little text, in about 6 point type on the back that said the product was activated through Steam, you needed a Steam account to activate the product and that if you didn't want to abide by the policies to return it to the store unopened. Yeah, sure, Steam works pretty well, but I hate the idea that I have to rely on something out of my control to make a product work. I don't like the fact either that they basically try to hide that info and only stick it on the side of the box because they are either legally required to or figured it would be a good idea to avoid a lawsuit.
