Just bought the bundle off steam as I have really wanted to add this game to my collection. Wait with great patience to load it up only to be slapped with a C++ Runtime Error. Do a bit of googling and oogling to find that, shocking, I'm not alone in this. After trying several various fixes people claim to have worked for them I am still stuck with the error and with basically wasted money at this point. Now here are the relative details, though as we all know it is the game/patch or what have you that is the issue not the machine/os (as every post I have read concluded) Win XP SP2 (SP3 causes issues on my computer that would require a full format... so don't bother saying that's the fix) Regional Language has been changed both to English (US) and English (UK) One fix stated the "icon" should have been wrong in the file directory, it wasn't, tried having steam regrab a fresh .exe anyhow Yes I un/reinstalled (twice in fact, that's about 6 hours of time ((I fell asleep))) Validating files state there is one file that Steam just cannot grab for some ungodly reason (an apparent issue with several games) Now, supposedly there was a patch lurking around somewhere that Steam was supposed to download, so of course I assume it is that one file that just sits there taunting me. Would it not make sense for it to be available for manual downloading and patching if it comes to that. Mind you I am seeing that most of the issue occurred when people installed the DLC, which Steam annoyingly auto-installs with no option to do otherwise that I am seeing right off. Anyhow, just a bit ticked right now as me and the gang had planned to play this evening
