Did you buy APB online directly from EA?

If you did you may get your money's worth somehow! From Gamasutra:

Players who bought the game via the download-only service Steam presumed they had lost their investment when owner Valve Software posted a message on its website saying: "As with most software products, we do not offer refunds or exchanges for purchases made online as outlined in the software license."

However, some buyers of the game, posting on the Steam forums, claim that publisher Electronic Arts has offered them a free game from its library as a goodwill gesture.

In addition, Gamasutra commenters who bought the game from the digital-only, Electronic Arts-owned EA Store have, in some cases, received a full refund.

Owners of physical copies of the game are not so lucky. Joint administrator Paul Dounis said players who are looking for refunds must return to where they bought the game. "Customers should revert to the entity from which they bought the game in respect of their entitlement to any refund," he said in a statement.

Steam is often mighty convenient, but in this case not so much.

Never know. As a steam fanboi they may come up with something down the line now that EA has started giving shit out.

Free Global Agenda from Steam! (jk) It is a fun game but not for everyone. I think I could play it for a few months.

I am glad I never quite bought it after the Beta.

It died surprisingly fast.

The two major flaws I would have to say would be the advertising as a MMO and the way they did the beta.
