When they do something bad, you can bet we'll be up in arms I guess? Don't hold your breath.

I'd rather the best marketplace for video games be owned by a private corporation headed by a guy who loves what he does than have it dominated by a shitty, faceless corporation run by stockholders and clueless CEOs.

and it couldn't have happened to a nicer company. Valve make great games, offer quality service to their consumers and (with one notable exception) are very honest and open about what they're doing.

Now if only they could count to three...

Steam genuinely has some very good aspects like the awesome sales and promotion of indie titles. I wish they didn't have so much control over PC gaming though. I don't want corporations messing with something that should be open. Both extremes are retarded though. Angry steam haters are just as bad as steam fanboys.

Jeez, where did this come from? It's like you guys have no real reason to hate the guy anymore.

We all know id's latest game was shit. If they loved video games, you think they would try harder to make better stuff. For them, deadlines take precedence over quality, and they design their shit for consoles and port to PC because they just don't care about the experience - they want the money.

Be happy there's a fatass millionaire who cares enough about video games to put his own money and time into it, or PC gaming would be dead.

Yeah, 2004 sure was significant... not. Released: good games, bad games, mediocre games, and some games were aborted before they could be finished. Some companies folded, some merged and divided.

What was any different about that year than any other in gaming history?

Yeah, we're pretty pathetic... liking video games and the outlets and platforms through which they become available. God forbid we should like the one platform that doesn't fuck over its customers with subscription fees.

Games have always been licensed, and you have never had a right to manipulate what's stored on the disc. Not having the disc makes no difference.

Scurry on back to Game Stop, kiddo. Go buy a used game with your mother's money or something.

I didn't bother playing DNF, thank you very much. I could have pirated it (it's free!), but didn't bother. We download demos or pirate full copies, then buy it if we like it. No try, no buy.

Besides, if you couldn't tell the game was bad at first glance, there are no words to describe my disappointment, anon. I hope you didn't drop your spaghetti at the store.
