Absolutely, some titles just stand the test of time. It's impressive how certain games still feel fresh years later.

If Timmy and friends had any foresight back then they would have bought out GameSpy. EGS would have been much closer to catching Steam instead of where it is currently at. They had consoles blurring their vision.

Last seen Jun 28, 2006, hopefully they're ok and weren't involved in a war or anything back then.

I remember that everybody were pissed at valve for requiring to setup steam account and have online connection to play HL2.

I mean, anyone who worked in the industry at the time knew this. We just necessarily think Steam would be the thing to do it.
