I use GoG as well. Not a bad site I recommend checking it out. Have just as man sales as Steam does, but no DRM. Personally where I do a lot of my game shopping. ((cause if it has a steam version... you can also jsut activate that copy... on steam so yea that too.))
i dont buy my steam games on steam most of the time either, but i will pretty much skip on a game if i cant get a steam key for it (the big exception here is most MMO games)
Yea, you might as well, you don;t need the Steam community stuff... and eh... it is yet another window you got to open... wiat to load... hope your connection to steam is good... then go throught the MMO's stuff. No thanks... I would rather only go through that once thank you.
