(1/5) > >>

MIFIVE:
That is the message Valve Software President Gabe Newell gave the assembled developers at the annual DICE Summit on Wednesday.

Ban Em All:
they are. if you think about it, when you buy at lets say gamestop, you are getting a case, a booklet, a hard copy of the game. when you buy through steam, you just get the little software on your account, and if your account gets hacked, oh well. kiss that 50 bucks good bye

meh, imo the only way your account gets hacked is you fuck up, and don't listen to there advice. it's not like people just stumble upon your password. steam is great for buying games, it's not overpriced, also if your account gets "hacked" you can get it back, if you have your CC info.

Who really needs the booklet, the hard copy of the game, and the case as well? all you need is the software. And as was said earlier you CAN get your games back...
