This article explains the basics of what Steam is and how easy and useful it is. It's basically the future of gaming, even consoles will someday be like this. Even in your PC isn't that great, there are games for you.

Be not afraid, for the forest nymphs have taught me how to pleasure a women.

Sure. I'll just load up my laptop's hard drive full of big fat games.

Did I mention that my laptop has a 150gb hd?

Never make me angry. I am a Hitman and I can easily find you and take you out.

Yeah well I can't purchase games because I don't have a credit card or something else, yet.

They have Steam gift cards, and you can use those Visa/Mastercard/Amex gift cards.

You don't need to have a credit card.

1) You realize that big games usually range from 6-50ish gigabytes. Even consoles have games that big. If you try to install an Xbox game, it's usually at least 6 gigs. Uncharted 3 for example is 45 gigs.
2) You would need a better computer anyways. If you save up $300-$350 you can have a pretty decent gaming computer that can play any game. Grant it not on max, but they'll run.

PC gaming for one thing is an expensive thing to invest in if your computer isn't already built for gaming. Console gaming is cheaper, but the online service on XBawks live can kinda get expensive if you have a tight budget. PS3 is a console for many exclusive titles, and has a free online service.

Basically, PC gaming is great and convenient, depending on the kind of computer you have.

Lurking these forums, rest assured that I'm silently judging you.

At least until Destiny.

"Steam", you say ?
It must be a new thing...

I have never heard of those cards. For all I know they might not even be available in my country.

Not when you have over 30 gb of music and about 30gb of space left anyway...

I got Civ IV(with expansion packs) awhile back...had like 8gb left on my laptop...
