Give the man a break, he just misspelled Tr0n.

Rare Genres. . . RTSS(i.e. Savage), horror games where you are actually unarmed and afraid like Penumbra (Yes, I hate you, Doom 3), because I honestly am not that afraid of anything that I can both outsmart and blast to giblets with a few shots.

Games that I wish were here. . . Starcraft Ghost!

A game with retro graphics, like Darwinia. Not many of those anymore.

Does it matter? I'm talking about decent shareware games, not unique ones.

As far as I know, downloading something through Gamespot will probably only let you download a demo. I despise demos. I don't know anything about Steam or any others, but I'm never going anywhere near 'em. And did you just say through the mail or shipping? That's not something I do much, heck, I don't even buy shareware much, but buying commercial games that are shipped to you in a box isn't something I do, at least not now.

Gamespot.com Let's you buy, as well as gamestop.com and direct2drive.com and steampowered.com

I like Steam. Auto-updates while you're not playing, you can buy indie games, downloadable commercial games, etc. Good stuff.

Wow, who the hell buys shareware games? You're the only person I know who'd rather buy from some dude thousands of miles a way on the internet than at a store self. I mean what the hell. Is it simply because video game stores haven't been invented in New Zealand yet?

Oh and I think that those buying things that Gamespot does are simply ads. But what they are is stuff like, download the full version of Farcry (I think it was like 15$ or 10$ on sale) or get something newer like Splinter Cell, then you just buy the activation code via the internet.

First off all, thank you! Sarcasm is the "best" way of making a point.

Windows is the most successful OS around at the moment, it also has the most bugs of any system I know of, and gives me the urge to shield my eyes from the crap I see whenever I look at it.

Mac would be much more successful if all the money-heads out there didn't get sucked in by Windows's affordability.

Affordability? You spend $100+ on hating yourself. That's what Windows does, it makes you hate yourself.

First off I would like to say that I have used mac and windows both frequently, so I know my stuff. I don't own a mac, but I use it plenty of times. We are all intitled to our opinions, and this is mine:

First of all, mac doesnt't have as much security problems because more people use windows and hackers don't want to bother with mac. And mac is a much less powerful system, much more complex, and has tons of problems when using microsoft software, altough windows handles apple content extremely well.

Also, mac ain't cheap either. Stop hiding and making every excuse possible because you were too stupid to get a mac. Also, mac makes you hate yourself, not windows. And please, stop coming up with more reasons for mac to be good, there are none that are true. Also, the numbers and sales don't lie. Windows is better than mac and linux and because it generates more money the system is better.
