well i've bought downloadedable games i've owned boxed versions of before but last night is the first time i've repurchased a downloadable game i already owned. hadn't played warband since the end of april after getting it on impluse. but this patch and the last have added a lot of content ( i just visited one of the businesses you can run—a brewery which for some reason reminds me a heck of a lot of one of the interior levels of ultima ix which has been at least 6 years since i played it)

also since i'm a sucker for achievements (go figure for a non-console gamer?) i decided $10 was a damn good deal for warband double by getting the steam version. It's wierd my original mount and blade was on direct2drive, which I was immediately able to register on impulse a year or two ago. and i tried it on steam last night (after i bought warband 2x) and i have it on there too with the same key. i doubt I'd have the same luck with warband and besides talewords deserves more of money for the amount of time i've spent on their games.
