This is the steam official topic!
I got Civilization V 75% off today on steam and Portal 2 half off a while ago
I just hate the downlaod times.

Steam is cool for the sales but a bit overrated in my opinion. I occasionally download stuff from there but overall there are a few problems with it.

I'm serious.3 days? It only took me a few hours... Steam usually has great download speeds for me.
...Think about it...
Portal is a three hour game...
IWBTG is double that at least (for example)...
and it takes a couple seconds to download it.
While Portal takes 3 hours.

Portal is more like a 1 hour game if you know what you're doing.
And IWBTG is smaller as in it has no 3D objects and not many sounds, and it is all 1 .exe file.

No, it's a generic game platform, anyone can create an account.
I've been on it since I was 10 or something.
I am 13 now, but that doesn't matter.
