    I've seen several people compare this to accidentally leaving your wallet someplace and having someone claim it as their own but this case is nothing like that at all rather it is like placing a new wallet (still in it's store packaging) along with some gift cards (but no ID cards or anything...

    I'm worried games might be getting too inexpensive

    Valve has stated publicly that if steam sales didn't work they wouldn't do them. http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/7.382354-Valve-If-Steam-Sales-Didnt-Work-We-Wouldnt-Run-Them remember it's all digital, thus it costs them almost nothing to sell more copies but they earn lots of...

    Americans, what's so great about the Imperial System?
