Greenman Gaming is currently have 75% off on BioShock 2. It's now $4.99. You do however need to download their "Capsule" downloader to download the game after purchase.
Actually I am not quite sure. Since it's BioShock it could very well be a Steam key. I don't have a powerful enough computer nor time to play this so can't really find out :P I wrote Capsule from previous experience with Greenman Gaming, but yes this could be Steam.
Anyone able to verify as steam enabled?
FYI here is a link to a list of Green Man Gaming Games You Can Activate on Steam:

Bioshock 2 does not look to be on the list.
GMG usually list on the game page steam as a requirement if it were a steam key that you receive.
They usually state if it's a steam game.
That said, I personally wont be getting anything requiring capsule. I just had to download HoMM6 for the 3rd time cos Capsule crapped itself. 7GB and 12hrs of download time down the shitter.
Good game, was in my pile of shame for ages and i only just finished it a couple weeks ago - wanted it out of the way before me3 hits soon. Good buying at that price.
I still havent finished the first one :\ shame on me lol
They had the physical version for sale for $9.00 a few weeks back. Better option as you can re-sell it when you're done.
I bought it from a sale last year. In addition to the capsule thing, you have to sign up for Windows live gaming.
Don't do what I did, which is ignore the windows live stuff bordering the screen, playing through half the game thinking I'd beaten the system. When it comes time to save the game, you will find that it won't let you. Infuriating? I think so.
Still a pretty good game, even if you do have to play the first part twice. The big sisters are scary, even more so when you are drunk :/
so you dont get a key that is registerable by steam as well as being able to use capsule?
