My parents are away in another country and would only get me ep2 after they come back which is 11 days from now. The box only arrives in my country 4 months later in Singapore according to my email to EA. They are not planning to give me their credit card details to buy it over steam while they are away.

Means I can't bloody play the orange box for 11 days WTF!!! and my exam break (we still do have some lessons after our year end exams) ****ing ends in 10 days. I really, really hate my self. Is there any way I can get this game via steam. I live in Singapore and I have got a bank account (not credit card duh!) and have cash and all..but I don't have a credit card account. Is there any way.. :(
 
Only with a credit card, Valve stopped accepting e-cheques. Although I'm not 100% sure on that. /me tries again.

You must add a credit card to complete this purchase, possibly because the seller does not accept eCheques. Some payments, like instant and immediate payments, require a credit card.
 
NOOOOO!!!! There has got to be a way.. you mean my only choice is credit cards??
 
You can always buy it on the black market. Or does that carry a death penatly in Singapore?
 
You can always wait.

The Orange Box isn't going anywhere, jesus.
 
Steam - What forms of payment are accepted on Steam? said:
We accept the following credit cards for purchases of Steam games:

* Visa
* Mastercard
* Discover
* American Express
* JCB
* Paypal

For more information on PayPal, please visit http://www.paypal.com/
Looks like you are out of luck.
You could investigate PayPal, I don't know much about it. Otherwise you'll just have to wait while listening to us tell you how great the Orange Box is :p.
 
Just get a damn credit/debit card damn. People always make it out like its ****ing impossible for them to do it. You already said you have a bank account, so just ask them for a debit card.

Or you could use paypal, because I think they can just link your account and withdraw from that. The only thing is that you may need a CC as "backup" because I remember putting my card as backup. I dont remember if I was required to do it, or if i just did it anyways though.
 
A working torrent should be up within 3 days. Just torrent it, play the sp, then a few days later buy the whole box.
 
Offer Gabe Newell sexual favors.





Seriously, iirc what Krynn said is correct, Paypal can be fed through a bank account.
 
Get a friend or relative to buy it on their card.
 
You can always wait.

The Orange Box isn't going anywhere, jesus.

Wtf is wrong with him wanting to play OB when it comes out? Or are you just being a troll? The guy wants to play it when everyone else does, and I would feel the same way. We've been waiting for these games for over a year.

Nothing is wrong with him wanting to play it now.

The fact that he made a thread just to say he can't is just stupid.

He says he has a bank account, therefore he can very easily get a debit card and use that to buy the game.

What's stopping him from doing so? I'm sure anybody he knows that has a vehicle of some sort can take him to a bank and do so for him.
 
I should make my own thread about how I probably won't get Orange Box for a very very long time.
Eat that.
 
Maybe he didn't know about debit cards.

It was mentioned a couple of times in this already.
But, seeing as he has only made one other post in this already, I think it's safe to say he doesn't give a damn about what any of us suggest to him.
 
Probably not. Therefore, by Decree 74412-0, subsection a, since the OP is not likely to come back this thread is now no man's land. Thread topic shall be summarily ignored and the thread will now segue into complete and utter chaos.

WE ARE FREE! ANARCHY!
