Those wary of siphoning data from the internets will also be able to find the game in stores, though the disc will still require authentication from Steam upon installation.<br /><br />Once you've gotten that out of the way, you'll be able to take part in the PC "revival" of The Bitmap Brothers' Amiga classic, complete with worldwide rankings, online matchmaking and "state-of-the-art-technology." The <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speedball"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speedball_%28video_game%29"><em>Speedball</em></a> </a>series was most recently revisited with <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2007/10/08/speedball-ii-on-xbla-next-week/"><em>Speedball 2: Brutal Deluxe</em></a> on Xbox Live Arcade.<p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.joystiq.com"><img src="http://www.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Joystiq" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2007/11/05/speedball-2-tournament-hits-steam-this-november/">Speedball 2 Tournament hits Steam this November</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.joystiq.com">Joystiq</a> on Mon, 05 Nov 2007 21:05:00 EST.
