Hence my declaration of suckage. Nobody wants to download some bloated piece of crap for one file which could just as easily be on HTTP (and probably is anyway, just only accessible from Steam)jegHegy posted on May 19 2004 at 12:44 PM said:Steam sucks if you only play Codename: Gordon, yes. Steam doesn't suck if you play several Half-Life mods online.

seriously, you can't show me ANYTHING that isn't hated by at least one person (and possibly made a website). i had steam installed since it was first released, and it hadn't caused me any problems since, and i use it a lot. i also had it installed on my previous PC, and it was fine there too. most of the problems are caused bye users themselves, and the first thing they do instead of trying to fix it is go whine on forums (several if possible).Rico posted on May 19 2004 at 03:51 PM said:http://yarbroughs.org/archive/2003/09/13/steam-sucks/ *yawns*jegHegy posted on May 19 2004 at 12:44 PM said:Steam doesn't suck if you play several Half-Life mods online.
I'm sure there are plenty of other similar sites. Since I haven't used Steam myself, I was about to agree with you perfectly, but then I remembered the old IRC topic images making fun of it... and now this ^
