    I'm about to download my first game, I got a free voucher for avatar but I want to know can I download it on one PC, just put the file on a DVD and take it to my home PC or do I need to download it on the PC I'll be playing on?

    The voucher is for gamesplanet.com it seems like a straightforward download.
    My PC connection at home is dodgey and I'd like to download it over a better connection.
