If you can see my earlier post I was saying how if you are a smart shopper you could save money or pay pay near Steam prices. I bought Fable 3 for $9.99 new last week and Max Payne is $40 at Amazon and some other retailers. As I said the superior PC versions of last gen games can be had new and used for PC for near Steam prices. The only thing that Steam really brings is instant delivery of purchases. With many companies talking about microtransactions in game, Valve had the great idea to make full games the microtransactions. Id wager that >90% of Steam users have dozens of games that they will never play due to this business model. I personally dont care for Steam(yet probably own 100 games for it) as I dont like DRM but at $2 a game I can live with it. I still prefer to buy boxed copies so I can sell/trade/lend games if needed. PC is great because of mods, backwards compatibility, indy&exclusive games, not DD games.

I guess it depends on where you buy it, I personally hate buying used games, I only get them new condition ;p.
100 games on steam @__@ , man I dont want that much, at least not now xD. I wanna finish or at least put a decent amount of hours into the games I have gotten on steam before getting more. I've got motivation to do so as well! (Recording/Reviewing).
I'm not too familiar with the DRM issue, I've been hearing alot of it lately, but I am guessing that has to do with the most recent games? Can you please explain to me more about it o.o? (Also note that I am a new steam user and I'm buying the classics/old games not the new/recent ones).
Also what do you mean by "DD" games o.o?

DD = Dangerously Distasteful
