lol, great video.
Hey MasterP:
Valve makes solid games. Applications ‘always’ have bugs. There a more now than 10 years ago because the applications being developed today are 100 times more complicated and far larger in scope. Testing is a nightmare given the scope of today’s applications.
The fact that Valve released the game with bugs is moot when considering that every game that is released has bugs. Given the quality of the game even a month before release, it was highly polished! Also, among the best PC game developers, Valve ranks up there around Blizzard, Bioware, and Bethesda…
You want a buggy PC developer? Try Rock Star and any ‘PC’ version of GTA. Now that is buggy 
.
Also, thank God for Steam. If it weren’t for Steam Microsoft may have been able to ‘charge’ to play PC games (that aren’t persistent) online. Sure if Valve went under I might lose the games I’ve bought but even if they went under, the royalties and contracts alone would keep Steam running…
Seriously, I <3 Steam. Sure in the beginning it was rough around the edges but it still worked.
At the end of the day just think of it like this.
Steam > Microsoft Windows Live.
