I posted this in the bargains thread, but I think the urgency makes it worth its own thread.

Some crazy foreign web site is giving away serials for Speedball 2 on Steam

Click.

Be quick!!!

I'd have done this if it didn't involve giving my email address to shady eastern european websites. Within weeks you'll all have grubby forrins rubbing squid over your windows shouting "KALKALASH!" and "YOU BUY! YOU BUY!" at you.

I live in North London, I won't notice any difference.

As long as they bring things like sopocka and curried goat, they are welcome any time. (Also, I may have used my 'spam' address.)

As in Brutal Deluxe?

Edit. I went there, headed off to the link like it suggested and got this.

It basically says they wanted it to only be for Polish people but were too stupid to enforce this in any way so you now have to join their forum and PM to get a code.

And I doubt it's worth that kind of hassle.

You'd be correct.

Ah OK cheers Dud.

I can always play the original (if its even the same game) on UAE or something.

Got my key, but how do you actually get the game to type in the key? I am frankly baffled.

On Steam, go to "My Games" then click "Activate a product on Steam", put the code in, and it will download.

Took me ages to figure out as well! I almost ended up buying the game by mistake.

It seems to be really easy to score goals, so long as you at no point try to shoot the ball. The goalkeepers inevitably lunge wildly at the pope you which is simple to dodge, allowing you to wander into the empty net.

The menus are a bit of a mess, too. And having only three player skins per team is bobbins. It's a bit rubbish, really.

Can someone who got it just upload the game here?
Far easier.

You seem to be unaware of how Steam works.
