I have 2 home based businesses, plus 2 seperate personal accounts and one for my day job. I tried to email them and get my old account, but unfortunately in the industry today, there are so many checks and balances to avoid piracy that, they just didn't believe me. So yeah, I guess you could lay all the blame at my door. But it doesn't change the fact that I didn't get what I payed for. And saying " You signed the contract" is worthless at the end of the day. So I learned my lesson, and to make it easier on myself, I just don't do it. In the last 2 months, I have bought, Dragon Age Origions, and Mass Effect 2, both on disc, from Amazon.
I buy upwards of 6 to 10 games a year, and I have all the discs from all those games. So having the actual disc and the case it comes in is also alot easier when it comes to cataloging and organizing my game library.
The comment about "the contract" was not to blame you, but to explain you that it is all explained in there.
There isn't anything I can do to convince you that there is nothing "wrong" in this...
But beleive me, you can burn on a disc all the files from GG (including the serial) and you have your boxed version, just like another forum member said.
Sadly for me, Digital Downloads are the only way to go... so, 99% of the games I bought are through these platforms (GG or Steam for example)
