Your bought and paid for copy of RACE! is non refundable.

Just like any other PC game bought at a store.

It is impossible to run RACE or any other STEAM installed game with running STEAM first.

O RLY? It’s called Digital Rights Management, quit bitching!

If you wish to play without connecting to the internet or lack internet connectivity then STEAM uses what’s known as an “Off-line Mode.”

I really don’t see why someone would buy (and download) a game over the internet if they didn’t have a persistent internet connection. Time to ditch the dial-up kids.

These are the same worries everyone has with every Steam game. It’s really no big deal. Maybe when Free-weekending multiplayer games catches on, this will be less of a problem (I hope).
