| We think this is interesting for two reasons:
- This is actually the first post we've ever written about some guy selling his Steam account
- We can't believe someone would actually want to get rid of their Steam account
So, yeah, eBay user dave311freak is trying to unload his massive Steam collection (139 titles strong) onto whoever's willing to fork over the most cash for it. As it stands, nobody's actually dropped a bid on the auction, so we're not sure he'll be successful in this venture. Head past the break for a video rundown of some highlights from dude's collection. | |

| Read about this a little earlier. It's a violation of the Steam terms of service so the account will be locked down. It's a shame though, you should be able to sell anything you paid money for and no longer want. It's effing bullshit that all these game companies and devs want digital distro so they can stop us from buying and selling used games. Imagine that! The arrogant pricks think that they should get a cut of the aftermarket sales. Incredible. That's like if Ford or Honda said they should get a percentage of every used car sale because it's their intellectual property and we're just "licensing" it from them. We need to put a stop to this. I love steam because of how easy it is to use but we really need to fight digital distro or eventually there will be no used market at all. you'll have to pay whatever they tell you to pay if you want to play a game no matter how old it is. Wrap your mind around that. |
