It’ll probably come with a key that you plug in to your steam account meaning that when you sell your disc you’ll also be required to give them your key with the disc. Whoever buys your copy used will then submit a complaint with steam with a picture of the key and their receipt and your copy of portal 2 will be de-activated. Happens all the time with people stealing keys from games at walmart.
Steam/Valve are totally pro at this business stuff. You won’t be able to screw them. No matter how smart you are or think you are, they’re smarter. Every time

I’m not trying to screw them.. I plan on keeping both copies and playing both.

“PS3 users will also be able to save their games to a cloud-based storage system.”
This does not say PC users will be able to do the same. I highly doubt we will. Even so, unless they specifically say that savegame files will be inter-operable, and they haven’t, I wouldn’t leap to the conclusion that they are.
I still have doubts about them getting PS3 users to connect to the steam network rather than PSN. After all the legal crap Sony’s been doing lately to lock down the PS3, somehow I just can’t believe they’d be willing to let their players connect to a multiplayer network they have no control over.
I don’t understand why it’s hard to believe.. L4D2 already stores this stuff in a cloud. The PS3 is supposed to have access to most all of the steam features.. Why would the PC version not have access to this.. it just doesn’t make sense.
I think on these two items we will just have to wait and see.. BUT I SILL GOT 2 GAMES FOR 35 BONES SO I WIN..
even though kip made me feel like I lost
