[johnniewalker]

is that the half-life program that has all the mods on it?

[HBox]

There's no spyware or anything but it does have a client running at all times in your task bar so if you have a slower computer it could slow it down.

Yeah its kinda annoying to have the client autostarting but you can disable that.

Steam is only used for valve games right?

Steam was just hacked last month.

But besides for that, it's a totally legit program, it started as being a Valve only thing but now it hosts a whole lot of independent label games.

well it can be a ram hog but its not malicious or anything

I just picked up Everyday Shooter last night, it's pretty great. The music in this game would make for an epic playing experience while under the influence of something that would make you care about colors and sounds.

Not bad for $10. Played it a while last night, its quite trancing (is that a word?).

The proper word is entranched.

Does anyone else here have a Steam ID? My list on there is very lacking, I don't know many PC gamers. Everyone is all Xbox Live.
