A program designed by VALVe to make more money out of their games, and
convenience gamers by auto updating games, and adding a friends/im system. This makes them more money because they dont have to pay the
publisher as much money so instead of getting 15 bucks a copy after all the publishing fees, they get about 40. It was released over
one and a half years ago with many bugs, those bugs were fixed, but people still blame steam on their crappy comp
steam is much better,
just because ur 4 year old comp and ur 56k
connection cant
run the game fast, doesn't mean its steam fault. What would u rather do, Wait for 5 hours inline on fileplanet, or directly download content from one of steam 44 content servers.
