I have SWB1 and want SWB2. Unfortunatly, new copies of this game are $100. Will this game work used, or is there some code that checks to see if ur the original owner?

You could buy a digital copy off Steam for $20.
Click here.
But if you'd rather buy a used disc copy, make sure you're getting the game's manual with the game. You need a CD key in order to install the game, and the CD key is located on the back of the game manual.

Is that site even legal?
It looks too good to be true...

Basically, Steam is a site where you can download games onto your computer, for a price of course. The only difference is no CD.

New Battlefront two is $100 US Dollars (yea I know I said 100 dollars US dollars). Used they can be, like 8, but not guaranteed to work by any means, usually without a manual.

Wow.... I got mine, new for 35 USD. At $100 bucks, I would recommend Steam.

I got mine for $12 US dollars
Amazon is a good place to buy it, that's where I got mine, but I think Steam is more trustworthy.

And where on Earth did you find it priced that high?
A search on Amazon for "battlefront 2 pc price" found this:
http://www.google.com/products?hl=en&sa ... e&resnum=1
There's one seller on there trying to sell it for $90, but I suspect that's just one person trying to scam people out of their money.

Hmmmmmm..... I'm surprised, for the most part amazon has about par prices. I was deceived. [/ToR trailer reference]

If i get it from steam, will i be able to transfer it via flash drive?
I know you're about to say " But you can download it to multiple computers!"
But the computer i'm using right now, my laptop, is almost full in hard drive.
So i'd like to transfer it to my weird mix of an all-in-one and a desktop, which doesn't have internet access.
Also, how big is the file? (as in gig)

Yes you can transfer it, and the CD version which i have is roughly 5GB. a pretty big game for its age. The Steam version might be smaller, not sure.

is your friend, try researching at some point, instead of taking more time to ask us to do it for you.

I suggest reading through this thread, if you are planning on running Steam games offline (or any other thread like it):

Well if you answered, i'd assume you already know.
If not, well, I'm sorry.
EDIT
Great. Now I'm a fodder scooper...
