This is a much greener way of buying games. It's good they are selling them at reasonable prices too. Don't even have to leave the warmth of my home.

Steam = awesome.

I had to set my screen on my laptop to 90 degrees orientation to take this. Can't wait to get back to uni and my PC that actually has a graphics card and not a piece of cheddar cheese.

I hate to circle jerk about steam but they do provide a pretty great service... I wish they'd see that cutting the cost to the point where the customer feels like he's getting a terrific deal works to their advantage, and that they'd have insane sales more often. It made me - someone who hasn't bought a game legally in over a year - make the jump on at least 3 games throughout the sale period. The word got out quickly that Steam was having a big sale and I'm sure they made a LOT of money, and got a lot of new customers - which gives them market domination. Also, all the copies are digital... they didn't lose anything in production costs. They could have sold any game for .99 and they probably still would have made nearly pure profit (savor minuscule server costs). Finally, it works well for developers because these sales no doubt greatly increase install base which will make selling sequels easier.

I've bought a shitload of titles, partly because I've been wanting to try most of them and partly because they went for around €2. I guess it's kind of nuts of me to buy so many games, but I've never been into paying €60 for a video game unless I know for sure it's good, so this was a good opportunity to catch up on games that could've potentially disappointed me.

Here's the list in case anyone's interested!

Beyond Good and Evil
Deus Ex
Deus Ex 2
Heroes of Might and Magic 5
Hitman: Blood Money
Max Payne
Max Payne 2
Abe's Exoddus
Abe's Oddysee
Overlord II
Penumbra: Black Plague
Penumbra: Ovberture
Penumbra: Requiem
Prey
Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time
Prince of Persia: The Two Thrones
Prince of Persia: The Warrior Within
S.T.A.L.K.E.R.
Serious Sam HD
Street Fighter IV
Torchlight
World of Goo
Morrowind
Mass Effect

So far I regret buying Heroes 5, Max Payne and S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Heroes 5 because it's a complete piece of shit and is nothing at all like the previous games in the series, Max Payne because, well, it's not as cool as I recalled, and S.T.A.L.K.E.R. because it's so horribly slow/badly coded that I can't play it for more than a couple of minutes. All in all I'm pretty satisfied with the purchases though. If you guys haven't already you should definitely get Prince of Persia, Abe and Deus Ex. They're all really good series.

blood money is fantastic.

That’s right, you have the young gaming with the old(er), white people gaming with black people, men and women, Asian countries gaming with the EU, North Americans gaming with South Americans. Much like world sporting events like the Wolrd Cup, or the Olympics will bring together different nations in friendly competition, (note the recent Asian Cup; Iraq vs. Saudi Arabia, no violence there) we come together. The differences being, we are not divided by our nationalities and we do it 24-7, and on a personal level.

We are a community without borders and without colours, the spirit and diversity of the gaming community is one that should be looked up to, a spirit and diversity other groups should strive toward.
