If you install a full game from steam and say you needed room on your desktop for something else could you delete the game and then still have it to reinstall for anouther time without losing it or having to pay again? plz anwser need this info ASAP Thnx
Steam is pretty awesome. I really don't use much of its communication features, however, the deals are really amazing. I got GTA4 for $6.50 the other day.
steam is an excellent service and their pricing is something that other services should learn from. I have bought multiple games from steam which I have never played simply because they sell them so cheap. This is money they would not have got from me selling it at retail price.
Eventhough I hate spending money Steam makes it SOOO easy to get what I don't want and love every second of it. It's a good plateform because it's sales get people to buy when they typically don't buy and offer sales of 50-75% off and you really don't get those sales anywhere ever. If only more people played PC (like my friends) and if only I had a gaming computer. Damn you college and budget. Hopefully Steam's offline support will get better. After 10:30 my internet dies.
@SilverMagics is there any way to get offline installer for steam ...you know it gives you a 1.5 mb installer which downloads other files can i get all files you know download them once and dont have to download it again if i change my pc
@midoribishi i have a ? about steam you see i downloaded it and it seems like steam has some free games such as americas army 3 team fortress 2 and some others and i was woundering is steam illgeal cause i already got in trouble with lime wire and had no idea it was illgeal can you plz conttact back
@ikehard18 It is NOT illegal. If it was the government would definitely have banned it.... A real company like Microsoft or Sony (Valve) made steam. If wasn't legal ,it would be banned by now
@levelingup impossible to reinstall? lol i reformatted my pc simply downloaded steam again opened up my game library clikced download and install 2 hours later done.
Steam is the best thing since sliced bread.
And our games are cheaper than consoles as we buy the data not the disc :) (And steam is free unlike xbox live)
@nielsville1234 lol its cheaper than shops etc they release a game wait they put an offer on it and bam! For example shogun 2 39,99 Now its on offer for 29,99 Steam are cheaper.
I tried to purchase 2 games (dirt 2 and aliens vs predator) and when i try to checkout it says my address doesnt match when i know it does. It doesn't give me my games but it does charge to my card. Has this happened to anyone else before. I just finished building my rig and this is BS that this is happening to me.
@Jessmo312 Depends on yourself really. Statistics say that nearly 80% of accounts that where hacked, is because a "friend" got ahold of their passwords. "Hackers" in the sense that they steal your accounts are often people you know in RL.
Steam is a pretty solid service and their has not been a breach, not that i would know off atleast. I've been on steam for about six to eight years prolly. Never been hacked because i protect my credentials and account details dearly.
@Jessmo312 if you made that secret question security thing. The hacker will probably only hack youre password, but not youre e-mail and secret answer, and therefor you can answer the secret quostion and get youre new password sent by email :)
I have a question please answer it someone.If i have bought Modern Warfare 2 already and then I join steam will I still be able to play my copy on steam.
@livefromjumbobalu Mac version`s terrible i bootcamped my macbook pro the windows version runs at a 60% higher frame rate shame really as windows terrible.
I have a question please can somone answer it, once I buy a game on steam, is the game confined to the computer that I buy it on? like can I not sign in on another computer and play it there or something??? becuase im thinking of getting the orange box but I want to be able to play it on different computers like if I had a disc. someone please help!!
@KJSmallz No, it will be linked to your account. You can sign in to your account on any computer you like and download or redownload the game as many times as you want. This is possible mits you are logged in to the account you bought the game on.
@SilverMagics Yea but you dont want a service for "in" the games as its a resource hog and when your running a game you want all the resources to go to the game and not any to any adware like steam...
@typingwords This also includes 3th party games such as Dark Messiah, Mirror's Edge, Vampire The Masquerade, Zeno Clash, The Ship Sin Episodes and the upcoming Postal III.
Oh two more games that might be intresting for you, Risen, pretty cool RPG liked it a lot, a bit short though, and the second one would be batman arkham asylum, man i love that game although i don't really like batman lol
Oh and btw there are demos out for both of these games.
@BigdogWitBigdog Well I have used both quite extensively... and that is the conclusion I came to...
BTW Do you actually remember before steam? It was a hell of a lot better wasn't it when installation requirements for games couldnt change following purchase and you dont need to run adware (steam) to run them.
@bobbystar101 PSN and Steam are actually quite the same. Both services FOR gamers. Steam isn't a requirement, its a service you can use FOR the game you buy through the steam platform. If you dont like it, then don't buy through steam store but buy games retail through a normal store.
@sayfoo22 Well, thats totally true. It also not to mention uses the platform the most. Achievements, Game Time Clocked, Easy Ingame Friend search/join... do i need to say more ^^
Initial services are free such as the chat, voice and support to games. You are able to add non steam games to your steam account and still be able to use the initial services in-game. It has better support than xfire for all games.
I didn't like shooters either but after playing Crysis for 22 hours it's really got some original aspects such as the boosts like sprint, armor and strength etc it's a fucking great game when you get into it, trust me. Check my profile i've been playing it for 22 hours rofl.
so steam i online and friends only? REPLY ASAP

To be fair though I prefer not to use steam cos its crap.
The server browser is a joke and the friends list is a waste of time as I have used msn since before steam.
The rest of it is just ad ware and trying to get you to buy stuff while the steam process is hogging some system resources.
