Gamersgate winter sales are here

SR2 was $3.75 on Steam during the Autumn Sale, you should have got it then. It will most likely be on Sale again during the xmas sale so you might as well wait until then.

Yes, it activates on Steam.
"DRM: Requires a 3rd party download and account" is only there, if you have to activate it on Steam, but in this case you can do it, but you don't have to.
The Steam support article about games, that can be activated on Steam isn't and has never been 100% accurate. You can trust that list only that far, as that every game on it can definitely be activated, but there are a bunch of games, not listed on there.

Does SR2 activates on Steam as normal version or German censored?

See my post above.
It does activate on Steam and the issue with the censored German version has reportedly been fixed.
I couldn't try it myself, because I actually live in Germany, but there are numrerous forum posts on Steam and game tutor articles on Gamersgate, that suggest you'll get the uncut version on Steam.

Where are you getting Bad Company 2 and Medal of Honour from? I searched for them, but only the Guides show up for $20.

Well, I can see it as 6$ and so can everyone else.
Did you click offers and scroll to it?

"and so can everyone else"

No. These are EA games, and EA (like some other publishers) are very weird when it comes to where and how people can purchase their games. For some folks, Medal of Honor and BF:BC2 will not be available on GamersGate.

It will be very interesting to see how their "Today's EA Special" promotion turns out.

EDIT: It looks like GG has actually removed the majority of EA's library from my store view. I can look up EA's publisher page and the only game there is The Sims 3 Pets Create a Pet Demo. Oh good fucking grief.

I think it's region blocked. I can search EA's game catologue without a problem on GG's UK site.

I figured as much, but it must be a recent change. I bought Bulletstorm on there not too long ago, and I also remember thinking about getting Battlefield 3 from them. Now both have disappeared.

I went to the offers page AND the Holiday Gift Guide Sale page and scrolled through every game. I didn't see either of them listed. Must be region restricted.

I'm guessing BFBC2 activates on Steam? It says "DRM:Other DRM"
