Downloading Team Fortress 2
So, I've been wanting TF2 for a while, but I've been putting off buying it for the PC since I wanted to buy the Orange Box for my 360 when I get it this fall. However, seeing as how it's possible to just buy TF2, I think I want to do that. Since I'm impatient, I was going to buy it here and download it:
http://www.steampowered.com/v/index....40&cc=US&cc=US
But does anyone know how licensing works with this? I don't want to download something that will only have one license or only be able to install on one computer, since chances are I'll be reformatting my laptop from time to time, or building my own desktop in the near future.
Does anyone have any experience buying it this way, or know how online purchases usually work?

You can download it as many times as you want, provided you sign in to Stream with the ID that bought the game in the first place.

No problem. I thought that was a good move on Steam's part, so you don't have to worry about de-authorizing a computer so you don't hit your limit.

Yeah, I didn't want to get into a situation like PC Mass Effect puts you in.

Re: Downloading Team Fortress 2
Thats why you dont buy Mass Effect for the PC. Just buy a 360 instead... right now!!!

Re: Downloading Team Fortress 2
I want your avatar on my lap.
Anyway, I was reluctant to succumb to STEAM but it's pretty nice. All you have to do is install STEAM and you have all your games at your fingertips. So, reformatting is EASY. You can install all the games on any computer as long as you can log on. Pretty nice. Much better then hunting for DVDs and CDs.
