Mehy, thanks for that, I'll have a look at that later. If I can afford it today, I'll buy it.
Odin, great video. I agree with most of what he says. I love Steam. I have a fair few games on Steam and love the system.
I am a bit dismayed that my PC can't always run those games, but it is cheaper than consoles and more convenient.
I also agree with the principle of making sure the shops don't make all the profit from the used games.
I've actually been thinking that for a while. why the publishers don't simply demand a cut from the sale of the pre-owned game since the game license is their intellectual property.
but yeah.. the piracy thing... I guess in some ways, used game sales is a form of piracy except the gamestop and etc, are actually making money from sales of the publishers product.
edit:
ooh blizzard, keen sense of style! Warcraft III was £9.99 EIGHT YEARS AGO and I would have gotten a box, disc and book with it then. No way am I paying that price, that's just unreasonable. Especially since I only wanted to play it out of curiosity and don't know if I would like it that much. That's why Steam is so good.
