Its Super Bowl Sunday.
Meh.
If you PC Game then you probley know about Steam.
Its rather hard to explain...
Think of it as a:
Game Community
Game Organizer
Game Updater
Game Thingy
The one thing I love about it is the main game page.
The games are bought per account from the direct-download based Steam Store.
I usually avoid direct-download because if your computer dies the your games go with it.
But Steam had a great idea. Your games are linked to a Steam account so what ever happens to the computer you dont lose your games.
And also because is direct-download you never have to pay for the physical cds.
Its ran by Valve. The people that brought you Half Life, Left 4 Dead, Counter-Strike, ETC.
And its not only Valve games on it. Many PC game makers have games on there.
Now for my main point:
More content makers need to do this.
If the more expensive programs (Photoshop, Firework, Vegas, etc..) had this pirating software would be non-existent.
So dear content people. Create a service like this that keeps the files per user not per disk.
