Im pretty sure you should have a copy each if that is your intention.

Total Annihilation allowed player numbers that were greater than the number of game CDs (online at least). The same with X-Wing vs TIE Fighter (it had a second MP-only CD in the package).

Those are just the two I can think of off the top of my head.

Anyway, we'll just have to agree to disagree before the thread goes off-topic.

You talk about supporting the developer then you come up with this... ok w/e

I can't log in on Steam on both my PCs at once. It is a drawback for me as I'm doing multitasking and having games downloaded in the background or not logging out from Steam before I log in on another PC or a laptop. LAN parties on your own expense shouldn't be a problem on one licence, from the legal point of view, but I may be mighty wrong on this one. I wouldn't have a moral problem with someone trying a game out on one of the PCs while I play on another.

I wouldn't share the game with anyone in a long-term but the advantages are obvious. Sure, some people will prefer Steam anyway, good for them :)

Games like HoMM and Total War series allow for hot-seat mode but the convenience of having a game on multiple PCs for your own use is a good thing. Not having to log in to a third party client to play a game is another advantage.

All in all, I love Steam. I've got almost a hundred games on it and continue buying them. I hate the concept of DRM though and hope that GOG will continue to succeed in publishing games (not only old classics any more).

That's not too bad then.

I bet the CPU overclock wouldn't make much of a difference but the game needs a powerful graphics card at max settings.

We've yet to see how well the game's engine scales, it's a brand new thing on the market after all.
