Valve faces a £656 million lawsuit in the UK for 'overcharging 14 million PC gamers'

It would be funny if Valve, in reaction to these lawsuits, just stopped generating steam keys and called it a day. You want to sell your game for $50 on Steam and $5 on your website? Suit yourself. You don't want to pay 30% commission? Then don't (btw you had to pay 0 commission on steam keys, remember?). You want to allow people activating DLC bought elsewhere in your steam game? Well go on and start coding it in, we don't mind.

I wonder how long until the "exploited" publishers do a 180.

I loved classic pinballs (from Digital Illussions) and I very much enjoyed Yoku's Delivery Express, so this one goes straight to my wishlist. :-)

Quoting: NezchanIt's certainly a far cry from The Zone in Roadside Picnic, where every single step has the potential to be deadly. Or much worse.
Funny, I wanted to read it just now, but I took a look at my SF bookshelf and I have 10 books from Strugatsky brothers but not this one... Must have lent it out I guess.

> I know, I'm a bit of a late bloomer on the recent DOOM games after only finishing DOOM in the last year.

I've just finished Final DOOM (specifically the Plutonia Experiment) a couple of hours ago, lol.

It's ok not to like a popular game. I have a lot of "overwhelmingly positive" games on ignore list.

Quoting: MangojuicedrinkerAnd what has Russia done exactly that you are on high alert? Where is their spyware?
Literally yesterday Russia compromised Polish Press Agency's website and put up a fake news about mobilisation and they did it by installing malware on the computer of one of the journalists. And that's just one example out of many. We're in the middle a of a cyber war in case you hadn't noticed.
