Sick burn at whatever country Virumor is from? :down:

 

Nah, not trying to get into a pissing contest, I have no interest in his catgirl or whatever the rationale for those things was... ;)

You're a cheery wee bugger, Nep. Have I ever said that?

For Fallout 3, the game used Games for Windows Live... a very intrusive system that didn't work; Steam is way more unobtrusive...

I object! Every time I just want to play Fallout: New Vegas, I doubleclick its icon and STEAM opens up instead! "You need to sign this EULA.. released in 2006", "You need to see these latest offers from the store about some braindead shooter I wouldn't even bother to download for free", someone has added you as their friend (WTF?), blah this and blah that. And that's not even mentioning the "Can't logon to Steam servers, therefore you can't play your single player game for a couple of hours because we said so" messages.

 

For me, GfWL worked much better and kept itself hidden much better. Oh, and I got better download speeds from Microsoft's patch servers than I ever do from Steam (220MB patch and I got like 60-200KB/s!).

Swedes, go to: Spel2, for the latest game reviews in swedish!

I always think it's odd when someone hops onto an internet forum to post that they have no internet.

Last time I had no internet connection I could use my internet cafe for free 5 times a week. Visited here, other forums, worked on TSLRCM etc.

There is a lot you can do with an USB stick update wise with regular systems.

 

My single bought Steam game didn't boot up obviously, despite the "offline modus".

 

Anyway, I wouldn't pay $50,- for a frisbee either... so I am glad I got my totally functional Fallout: New Vegas disks now... *hugs non-frisbee discs*.

I agree that that is such a stupid idiotic pathetic garbage hateful retarded scumbag evil satanic nazi like term ever created. At least top 5.

Steam usually saturates my line because my ISP mirrors most of the stuff they have. Also means it doesn't count against my download limit. One rare thing I can't complain about.

 

 

 

Not sure how universal it is but a fair few ISPs still provide free backup dialup access so I'd be able to get that going pretty quickly if my connection fell over.

AP (and many other modern games) don't need the disk either.

 

But still no need for Steam...
