All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

I routinely use both  GG and Steam although for convenience I usually activate GG games on Steam if at all possible. Both are IMO much better than Gamestop/Impulse which has been a nightmare to use recently.


On a positive note for GG, I logged into my account today and noticed that an Indie Countdown Bundle Bonus Bundle has been added to my account, which includes Storm Over The Pacific! W00t!! Pretty nice considering that I only purchased one of the Indie Countdown Bundles!

If by  grumble you mean 'bitch like a bunch of grandmas at a knitting circle', I fully agree.

One visitor to the headquarters of the Emperor Napoleon was thoroughly alarmed by the griping of the Old Guard.
They complained about everything, not enough food, too much marching, bad wine (although they got the best fixings of the army.)  The Old Guard infantry were nicknamed The Grumblers (Grognards) because of the incessant complaining.
Doesn't it worry you that they grumble about everything, Sire?
They are old soldiers.  The time to worry, is when they stop grumbling.

Yeah, it's like my First Sergeant said in the Army: "If a soldier ain't complaining, he's not happy."
Regardless of how good a PC game may be it will always have its detractors and no matter how bad a PC game may be it will always have its fans.

You should read the new one. Tony Romo's mom might be the best character they've put in one of those yet.

You're right, I laughed even harder at that one.  God, those are f*****g hilarious!
