        I don't understand, this industry is retarded, Nintendo charge more for 10 year old games.

          Honestly I believe there will be major financial shortfalls well beyond what analysts expect all through christmas for most studios and publishers.

      How much money from these D2D, Steam, GOG things actually go to the original developers? If I buy Psychonauts how much does Tim Schaffer get? What if I buy the updated Monkey Island does Ron Gilbert (and his original team) even see a cent? I'm curious.

      They want to broaden their user base in the hope that more people buy Bioshock 2.

      Damn that's tempting. But on a side note, how is D2D compared to Steam? Just curious....
