Bigs: Pretty sure Arkam City has limited activations via SecuROM - as well as GFWL
Took this from a Steam forum post.... take with a grain of salt.. as I've read conflicting reports...
Greetings,
Batman Arkham City uses G4WL and SecuROM by default. If you purchase through Steam you will also have to use Steam's DRM system.
The G4WL DRM system is just for using your DLCs and saving your game. SecuROM is used during the install process and you can install 5 times on the same computer and on 5 different computers.
If you ever do reach this limit simply contact us back with some proof of purchase and a picture of your CD Key and we can then offer assistance.

The Problem is, Steam does NOT Replace your key, EVER! Took this from a Steam forum post.... take with a grain of salt.. as I've read conflicting reports...

So you if they give you a new key, you need a new account to activate it, since you cannot have the same game twice in your Steam account.
Batman AC and Max Payne 3 or Of Orcs and Men are perfect examples of games you should NOT get on Steam.
