Re: Feh
said by cableties  :Sorry but I found Valve (Half Life 2) distribution model cumbersome and lethargic. The buyer is required to have a fast Broadband connection. The buyer gets 6 CDs to install from (last I looked, the Gold package didn't include a DVD but was supposed to). And after a lengthy installation, you must then download more updates. If the server(s) aren't overloaded as it was, its rather arrogance to curb piracy at the "legit" buyer's expense (and time). They aren't overloaded - they're just slow. Anyways, to play online, don't you need to update your client ANYWAYS? Yeah, I thought so.
Personally, M$ and Sony licensed game companies will take over the gaming market. Only High-end PCs and limited games will be available to PC users. The marketshare will be the console users and their online gaming. Its already beginning. I recommend a BUY of EA stock...
I feel like i'm in Fort Worth, cuz it looks like I just stepped into a steaming pile of bullsht.
What evidence do you have to back any of that up?

| Yuck. I hate Valve. Their crappy Steam crap wouldn't uninstall from my computer after I was done playing the Half-Life 2 demo. It took a few weeks of my computer being messed up until I got the reply I wanted from their Customer Support.
And the Half-Life 2 demo was boring. I don't understand why so many people love this game. Perfect Dark >>>>>>>>>>>>> Goldeneye 007 >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Everything else. |

Perfect Dark >>>>>>>>>>>>> Goldeneye 007 >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Everything else. 1. maybe they spent more time on the actual game than the demo.
2. if you can't uninstall steam, maybe you shouldn't use a computer.
Add/Remove programs then delete the steam folder. It's not rocket science. Actually, it's not even ape science.
