    Never bought a downloadable game off Amazon (or anything really)...does it require any software to run after it's installed, such as steam? Or does it install like an ordinary retail game?

      I'm finding out, heh. I figure FarCry2 is worth $5. It downloaded an Amazon games installer...

      Well, their downloader kinda sucks. It would keep erroring out and I would have to go manually restart the download, it would restart and continue fine but kinda stupid that I would have to manually do that. You don't need to run the Amazon software to play the game but the game did install "TAGES" drivers which is apparently a copy protection.
