Steam issues in Europe kept people from playing The Last Remnant


While Square Enix's upcoming PC port of their RPG The Last Remnant isn't due to ship to the US until this coming Tuesday, the game was released over in Europe this past week. Unfortunately the people who first bought the game found out the hard way that these days having a high-powered PC isn't all that is needed to play a title.

For the PC port, Square Enix decided to use Steam to authenticate its copies of the game. But as our sister site Joystiq reports, the Steam client told the people in Europe who bought it legally and put in the appropriate code that the title could not be unlocked. However Square Enix has apparently fixed this issue, saying, " . . .any technical glitches were resolved within a few hours." Still it's really annoying to buy a game and find out you can't play it because of a "technical glitch" that you can't control.
