My account turns 20 on the 14th, and I can't help but think about the fact that games like Half-Life and Counter-Strike that I bought once 20 years ago are still so easy to play and enjoy today. Steam really set the model for how digital media sales should be done.
Pretty sure 20 years ago Counter Strike was still a free mod for half life.
