Re: Valve: Steam Good for Retail |

I'm from the UK, but I bought The Orange Box at retail and that mentioned it very clearly on the box.
I think the sticker might have been added by the retailer though, being a local independent shop means they're quite good like that.
Also, if you dig further into the subscriber agreement it seems quite clear that all the games are considered subscriptions. It even talks about how you might acquire software from other sources that requires a subscription and may come with other terms, which would cover third party Steamworks games.
Even further on it mentions that subscribers have no right to expect continuous service.
I basically trust Valve to remain profitable and carry on running Steam the way they currently do so I buy games there, but they've done the basic lawyer thing of disclaiming as much responsibility for the games we're buying as possible. |
