you have several options.

  • moving. but it was already mentioned.
  • trading. this one was mentioned as well. grrrr...
  • having a generous friend from a region bulletstorm is avaliable.
  • since gfwl is flipping you off, flipping them off by pirating but i can't suggest you this for obvious reasons.
  • winning on a giveaway site.
  • maybe it has family share?
  • buying from a digital retailer or reseller.
  • finding a physical retail copy. but since your region is not given a damn, i doubt you can find one from the store you usually go. maybe you should try amazon etc.

edit: looks like i forgot about origin. adding it just to make this list complete.

Personal experience: It CAN'T be shared. I shared my account with my friend, and he doesn't have access to the game, so it can't be shared.

It's more likely due to regional restrictions, ie. RU/CIS version can't be shared outside Russia and ROW can't be shared to RU/CIS or Germany.

Easy...ON ORIGIN, where all EA games can and SHOULD be bought. Cause Origin doesn't have shitty region restrictions like Steam has.

Since the traders brought this shit on themselves, you can't complain about steam being bad

Riiiiight, not the fact that Valve wants people to only buy from their store and nowhere else... Or the fact that some publishers are just fucking ass-holes, like WB.

Games can also be bought from retail stores, at a lower price, most of the time

Because they exploited the fact that games bought in Russia are cheaper than in US/EU/anywhere else, which ended up with trade restrictions, so there will be no exploits like this, and steam wouldn't lose money

Okay, I probably chose bad words again, but whatev
Yes, I do know that it was like that, but since steam was losing money because of this, they had to lock it down. Don't try to tell me that you wouldn't do the same when your company would be losing alot of money

You know, when you're in control of a big-ass gaming platform, you'd do anything to avoid getting bankrupt. I HIGHLY doubt that Valve employees came up with this only because they want more and more money. Is it really something you believe in, or is it something that you believe in only because most of the people say it?

Actually it wasn't allowed, people were buying games from the russian shop in bulk for dirt cheap and selling them for several times more than they paid for it to people in other regions. Unauthorized reselling is not allowed (could be wrong but i think it is actually illegal) and people were doing it and the only way to stop it without removing trading completely was to region lock games so people couldn't buy cheap in one region and sell for more than they paid to people in other regions.

That's not what we're talking about here. We're talking about games that are only available for purchase in a certain region and not the others because that's what a certain developer, publisher or retailer decided for no good reason. like Arkham Asylum was until 2012 or so.

The restrictions on this title are actually down to it being a Games for Windows Live title not it being sold through Steam. The Live service was only available in certain areas. No GFWL titles were available in those areas (at least through Steam).

They confirmed they will think about if it needs to be removed. Nothing since, so we can assume it's not gonna happen.

Also GFWL shutdown has been canceled. It's renamed into Xbox Games (for Windows) thought.

Just pirate it, and no, I don't want to promote pirating, but hear my story:
So I bought the game on release day in a little country, called Hungary. When I got home, I installed the game. Of course it had Day 1 patches, but it's system was so stupid, that it always downloaded the patch to C:\, while my game was installed to D:. After I solved this little problem, the game ran like shit. No, seriously. It has a weird bug, that if you play it on a 16:10 screen resolution, it can't reach 60 fps, just 30. After that, it came the graphical problem, and more slowdowns. So the game is forced by default to use 16 bit textures, AND it loads the level DURING gameplay. So you can imagine, when in the middle of a huge battle, it stops for a few seconds, because it has to load the rest of the level. So you have to edit the .ini files, but since it was stupidly encoded, you need a tool for that. Yes, it was encoded, so the makers of the tool spent 48 full hours to crack the encryption. Okay, so the game after that ran smoother, but when I tried to multiplayer, the code for my Limited Edition didn't work, because drum rolls I was living in Hungary, in a country, which wasn't supported by GFWL for a long time. When, after 1 years I got back to it, the multiplayer was dead already, but my code worked (yay!).
And now, a few days ago, I decided to play through it again. I could add it to my Origin Library, so I didn't need the disc to install. I was happy until I saw that it wants me to log in to GFWL. I tried to login, I even had the correct username+password, but for god's sake it didn't wanted to log in. And tadaam this is the ONLY game, which doesn't support local GFWL profile, so you are screwed. Now that was the point, where I gave up all the struggle, and downloaded a crack for the original, paid game. And since that, my name in Echoes is FairLight :P. And the struggle still doesn't end here, because the game is half-unplayable. If you want to exit from the game, do it after chapter ends, because if you load a checkpoint, get through an interactable thing, then die, when it reloads, you will never-ever will be able to interact with that thing again, unless you restart the chapter or get back to the menu, and re-load your state. But if you die after re-load from the menu, you will be back to square one, so only the full chapter restart helps. Oh, and the game loses track of different things from time to time, for example: bullet count in weapons. Happened to me, that between two checkpoints, all 20 ammo, along with charge shots disappeared from my sniper. And every time you relaunch the game, it loses track of skillshot names, but fortunately at least they have a green tick next to them, so you'll know which ones did you complete. And I might add, that even the scripts fail to work sometimes, causing you more headaches, but fortunately these can be cured with a checkpoint reload.

Overall: Bulletstorm is still a fun game, but it has so many technical issues, that I'd rather recommend you to pirate it. For me, when you have to crack an original, paid game to play it, it's not a paid game anymore, and since I cracked Bulletstorm, I have lost access to multiplayer, but it died weeks after release, so it doesn't even count.

P.S.: I still encourage everybody to support the developers by buying their games, but Bulletstorm doesn't worth the money, since you have to crack it in order to paly it.

look for a trader here on steamgifts. but make sure the trader is not from Germany, since Germany released games are most likely cut in terms of violence and blood and shit.

I know that feeling T_T
Don't risk it to buy on steam, maybe just maybe it'll ended bad
Buy the BluRay/DVD maybe?
And if there's a code in the box, then you can try it on steam activation code
