[QUOTE="Lifeisabeach, post: 1235265, member: 38864"] I haven't had a console system since the Atari 2600. The types of games I like to play just aren't viable on consoles. I can't even fathom how one could play Starcraft on a console. I'm more than happy to do digital downloads of games to avoid having a DVD to store around (or keep in the bay just to play), so DRM is a necessary evil. The Mac App Store has done it right, IMO. Borderlands and Anomaly Warzone Earth are two games I've gotten off there rather than Steam. Neither needs to connect to a remote server to verify I own them. They. Just. Work. I won't be buying off Steam in the future if I can avoid it. [/QUOTE]
