When you buy a game and download it, say i got a new computer and went on it, could i download it on that computer aswell, or can i only download on this comp? o.0

You'll be able to unistall it from this computer and then install it on your 2nd one, can't have it on more than one though (the games) ;).

Edit: or maybe i'm wrong.

You can download it on as many machines if you want, but games such as Fallout 3 only have say, 5 downloads.

Depends on whether the game has DRM or not.

I have games on both my laptop, and my desktop. You can download them twice but account sharing is strictly forbidden.

With most games, you can redownload them whenever you want. However, I prefer the boxed copies as then you have physical media for installation. If you are moving PCs, you can also back the games up to a disk or external hard drive and then restore them :)

You can download them on any computer unlimited amount of times, apart from games like Fallout 3, which have like only 5 downloads. :)

You can have it on as many comps as you want. I have them on three different desktops.

CSS is epic, the zombie maps and add ons and stuff people make are amazing, CSS is way better, it has zombie maps so you can shoot stuff to barracade yourself and everything, it owns WaW Nazi Zombie Mode.

CSS is amazing!

You don't need a trial, because you'll love it anyway. :8

You can use a guest pass to try it out for a few days, i'm pretty sure I had one but they seem to have expired from my game menu :s

how? ^

If someone buys the game, they get 1 free guest pass, which they can send to someone, and they can play for like 3 days.

I gave mine to someone (I forgot?)
