Steam.............Done Right?

Post by THE JEW (RaVeN) »

Another service that allows you to download games:

http://www.gamexstream.com/



3D Realms and Duke4 have put their backing behind it. Wait............maybe that's a detriment to promoting them. :mrgreen:

Yay DNF. I don't understand this whole "downloading the game is the way of the future" thing. I for one like going to a store and getting a hard copy of the game.
When Steven Seagal kills a ninja, he only takes its hide. When Chuck Norris kills a ninja, he uses every part.

Chuck Norris and Mr. T walked into a bar. The bar was instantly destroyed, as that level of awesome cannot be contained in one building.

Gentlemen, we got 20 calls about the David Hyde-Pierce incident. And as you know, one call equals a billion people, which means 20 billion people were offended by this

a 100% digital world is my dream.

(I was going to delve into specifics, but it's quite pointless. I'm sure you can all imagine a digital only based world...)

I hate digital delivery systems and I fully believe that they will go the way of the dinosaur no matter who backs them.

Besides, after Steam, its not hard to do it right...
Nature is bountiful where idiots are concerned

No, they arent breasts, they're personalities, because its ok to like a girl for her personalities

It takes a big man to cry, but it takes a bigger man to laugh at that man
