Re: Steam

How many times do you really need to play your games in Steam on more than one computer at a time? Frankly, I'd find that a little disconcerting, trying to focus on two different computers (or more) playing my games. Steam is probably the best choice out there for buying games online. I've dealt with D2D, and had nothing but issues with Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory and Chronicles of Riddick. I detest D2D completely.

Steam - on the other hand - has only caused me grief one time; Steam Community with the OB games (HL2:E2, TF2, Portal). Their forced use of SC in those three games caused me nothing but headaches. Though they finally listened and allowed SC to be disabled for all games, including the OB games, so they're back in my good graces again.

I never had any problems with HL2 when it was launched (started playing at 4:30am Central on the day it was launched). Never had problems with Bioshock. I've never had problems accessing or playing any of my numerous games through Steam. Sorry you had such a bad experience, but not everyone has issues with Steam. I like it.

Ok...It is enough to be annoying. I have had no problems with D2D. I also don't like the fact that every Steam game seems to have an exception to modding or patches. If Steam works out for you, great. With me, not so much.
