Most likely when they've release two or three TM² environments or one environment each for TM², SM and QM. Then those might be available as a bundle in stores. There's no official statement of Nadeo about that though, so nobody knows for sure.

I don't get why everyone hates steam.

Sure, a few years ago it was AWFUL, but recently it's got really good.

I've even bought a few games again so i can get them on steam.

Now they have a working offline mode, it's good for portability too!

steam is only good for mac users

steam is only good for really old trains. (or to losen glued on wallpaper)

Sorry, but I've been soured on the whole "constant internet connection and accoutrements" since the whole "Windows LIVE" fiasco. At least with me...I bought a LEGITIMATE copy of Halo 2 for PC--and on top of that, had to wait until I got a NEW rig since even on min settings, it dragged like molasses. When I finally got a new rig--the first thing I did was try to play online. Well, Windows LIVE first didn't recognize my e-mail address, even though I'd had that hotmail for something like 7 years--then it said I had an invalid serial number, and, when I finally got past all that--it said my account name had already been taken...even though it was something like EmeraldSabre888 or something like that--pretty sure that that specific account name wasn't used. And things only started working when I went to No-CD and got a .exe crack... Weird as hell. So, yeah, I will -always- support: Boxed copies, legitimate offline play, bot support, and full LAN support in every game. The day that games stop including these features is the day I stop buying games.

note: sorry my english I'm from Portugal

You pay 20€ for Trackmania 2 Canyon ONLY

You have to buy Questmania and Shootmania for example for 20€, too (price is not been announced for qm and sm yet)

Dang, was afraid of this payment method. Then again it's a simple method, only pay for what you want. If they accept paypal i'm all for it.

Came out for windows first.

well, it's easier to get retail games for windows than for mac isn't it?
On that part he's totally right about steam being good for mac

Both the same if you use steam. Steam for windows offers just as easy to obtain the same game as for mac, they're on the same platform as long as steam supports it. The way you download is the same though.

ehr.. i meant the fact there's more games for windows in general.

Mac users get about twice the amount of games they can normally find in stores if they install steam, to windows gamers the amount of games offered through steam isn't even 1 percentage of games they can buy retail.
