I heard that they got it repair for Dead Space 2 but anyone that says that physical media is going by the way side is pretty optimistic(wrong). For everyone who talk about Steam is a godsend got really burned. All those people who were expecting to play on their games and hate physical media really need to shut your mouths. When you had that problem other people with their physical copies were playing their hearts away. How is you faith in Steam now after that incident? What if this happens again?

No system is perfect. Nothing stops a batch of duff DVDs going out for any given game at any time.

Steam gets one game wrong - what about the other several hundred (or thousand) that were downloaded and played without incident?

(For the record, I'm a bit iffy on any download service)

When Dead Space 2 came out you know Steam would usually have it and you could download it even on the first day. When people try to purchase their copy of Dead Space 2 on Steam the first day it gave a message like we`re working with EA on the problem even though it was fixed a day later people with physical copies were playing the hack out of it on the first day from retailers like Gamestop.

Steam is fantastic, and nothing is perfect. A problem every now and then should be expected, however annoying it may be.

I don't recall people ever really ripping on non-Steam PC gaming, news to me.
