The full price of the game is $60, which means it might be as low as $54 for preordering on Steam. D2D was doing a 25% off sale on Easter weekend [which included preorders], so I nabbed it for $45. Would have skipped it anyway, but it's a Steamworks game so I can just nab the CD key and plug it in.
