I love Valve so much. They truly care about their customers. It is too bad more companies are not like this.

Awesome! even when I bought Half Life 2 second hand for £5 (obviously pre-registered) I emailed them and they had the game transferred to my account.

I used to be involved with empires mod with testing and stuff. Valve were really good to the developers and would get back to them quickly with queries about the engine and things.

ah I remember the good ol' days when Counter Strike was in free fan-made beta version

.. hopefully there's more winners like that for Valve.
