Titanium: EA store is the shits. One year download licence for more than full priced games? Not content with revoking your licence after 12 months, they imposed a rigid activation limit. And you almost need to back up your game if you want to play it after that time. Of course, you don't get a CD key, so you have to jump a few road blocks to play the damn game that way. Whatever games come out via that regime, I don't need them.

That's standard for any web store run by Digital River. EA, Matrix Games, Atari, etc., all the same.
Digital River is the devil.
Though I did buy Win7 through them because I got the student $30 deal.
I'll wait until it comes out on Steam.
I'll wait until it comes out on GoG.

Delixe: Might be worth getting it gifted from someone. EA Store is usually not THAT bad with pricing and I just checked it and here in Europe its €12.99.

Thanks for the tip, that would be an acceptable $16.51, but I wouldn't buy it from the EA store. Probably from Steam or GG.
I would love if DICE released the BFBC2 Ultimate Edition for PC too and thus making it the official release of BF1943 on PC... but that's dreaming. :(

Even if it's through Digital River, it would be an stupid move if you passed it for $30 being home premium (which is $199) or upper versions. No offense. :)

I don't know what the no offense is for as I did take the deal, and it's actually for the very best version of Win7, professional or whatever it is. Pretty awesome... I was actually out of college when the deal started, but my school email was still active.

Nah, just being polite. That was a free sample of my bad english.
Then you paid $30 for a $300+ version, pretty awesome indeed. Yeah IIRC they just check the e-mail, if it's .edu or similar.
