This is just a little question I have. Will be Crysis 2 only avaiable via Steam like most games nowadays or will be there a retail non-Steam version as well? Because for me Steam is the worst software ever (installations take forever, forced updates etc.). I'm thinking about pre-order the game via Amazon but I don't want to buy it unless I know that it'll be a non-Steam version.

Thanks for an answer ^^

I think it works with and without depending on where you get it from.

The only copy of Crysis 2 that will require you to play through Steam will be the Steam version. If you order it from somewhere else you shouldn't have this problem.

Ahh thanks for the info... now I'll definitely get it ^^
