I win, 99.85, didn't even break triple digits. Boom! Also, if you put in your steam website address to your profile... i.e. if your trying to find me, mine is steamblahblah.com/steamid/bosnian. Or whatever the website address URL is, but the last thing after the forward slash is /bosnian. Hope that helps!

The golden downside to all of this?

You dont own any of these games, only the license to play them :-( . I pray to Sagan that Steam never closes up shop, or I will be at a loss of hundreds of dollars.

Wait, what? Explain... Cause I bought DOD:S and CS:S, along with the other CSs from Gamestop, but lost the CDs a long time ago...

Whenever you make digital purchases through steam (or Amazon, or iTunes, or Origin, etc.) you don't actually have legal rights to the game itself. You are paying for a license to play the game. Technically, Valve/Apple/Amazon/EA etc. owns the game and has the authority to withdraw your licenses at their discretion. On top of that, I think most companies (not Steam as far as I can tell) have clauses in their EULA's to prevent class-action lawsuits that would sue them for withdrawing licenses that were paid for if they ever go under and can't support their communities. It's different than actually owning the discs and having physical copies of the games. Read the ownership section here

DISCLAIMER: I'm only recently becoming aware of these things. Apparently, EA has received a lot of shit through Origin after the release of Mass Effect 3 and it got me interested in digital rights ownership. My post may have some fallacies. Be gentle, it's my first time.
