fsx-se FSX Steam Edition Boxed Version?

[Ebs 114]

Be honest, 

 

You saw the topic title and got ready to call me an idiot! What's the point of a boxed version of a steam edition?

Don't shoot the messenger!

No sir, I was not ready to call you an idiot! I was thinking about it, but wouldn't do it.

 

 

 

Thanks for sharing this!

Pretty sure this is a box with a Steam key inside without anything else (except for maybe Saitek promotional material). Unfortunately, this is common.

Yep, says so right on the box.

Hmmm, defeats the purpose of steam.  The messenger has been shot.

Unfortunately, it doesn't actually include a physical copy of the simulator, just a key to redeem on Steam... So even with the boxed edition it looks like you still have to download the entire thing on Steam.

It's not idiotic, it's a boxymoron!

Steam stinks outside the box!
