Adding Batman Arkham retail keys to Steam.

Thank God, I bought them from GamersGate in July for cheap (like, dirt cheap.... I think $5 for both games). A week after I bought the games, GG gave me steam keys apart from GFWL keys. I activated them in Steam soon afterwards only to realize that GFWL was still required. My game got updated yesterday and to my surprise, GFWL was nowhere to be seen. But my saved games were lost. Arkham city's performance in DX11 mode improved dramatically. It used to stutter like hell in the areas outside. Now, there is much MUCH less lag. I was proved right about gfwl. Its a POS that was utilising 40% CPU due to which the game lagged. People blamed bad coding, but they are also proved wrong. Or, it is just me... :p

Anyways, for people who upgrade the game will lose the savegames. To save their a****s, here is some help:

Just remember, your savegames are in C:\program files (x86)\steam\userdata even if you install the games on another partition. I went mad searching for it in the steam folder in which Batman games were installed. Have fun!

I was able to get my key in the format xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx registered today. Goodbye Securom, you'll not be missed!
Now to transfer saves; thanks atiamd.

Dude, which game was this? Arkham City or Arkham Asylum? I just tried with my Arkham Asylum key and that still does not work. :(
