* KeepCirculatingTheTapes: The PC version was removed from Steam after the discontinuation of Games for Windows Live. Even if you buy a Steam key from a reseller, you have to deal with the [=SecuROM=] DRM, which can be a real pain. And you can forget about the DLC because buying it on Steam only granted you keys to be used with GFWL, so they are pretty much useless now. Honestly, if you want to play this game nowadays, you are better off pretending that the PC port never existed and just buying it on Xbox One or Xbox Series X.

** There are achievements for marrying (You married another player! N.B. Marriage not binding in any real court of law.) and having a child (We all knew this day would come. Having children online is finally a reality.) with another player over Xbox Live.
