Here in Norway the price of games on Steam are 30-50% cheaper than in the store. I guess we can thank the weak dollar for that:)
It's also way more convenient since the Steam store is available 24/7 and I don't have to move my lazy ass down town to buy a game.
You're missing the point of the physical cards.
Similar to Wii Points, XBox Live Cards and iTunes cards,
this is so that people without access to a charge card can still participate by paying cash money at a local merchant.
Not everyone has a credit card to use on the Internet. But the difference is that XBL, iTunes etc. lets you buy the stuff online in addition to offering cards.
In other news, Moose drama unfolds in Østfold (with pics!) That story is a few days old. The drama came to an end eventually:
"The yøung bøys Ølav and Sven had almøst saved the møøse when their lives all ended tragically in the claws øf a pølar bear røaming a nearby street."
Think about how you felt the last time you drank 4-5 cups of coffee within an hour, then say with honesty that this is a good idea. That all depends on your level of caffeine tolerance.
I NEVER eat breakfast before going to work and i usually have 3 to 5 cups of coffee within the first hour and a half when i get to work. Never noticed any sideeffects by it.
But i guess if a person who never drinks coffe were to drink the same amount he'd be all over the place, taking a leak every 10 minutes and maybe get diarrhea. I know i couldn't drink that much when i first started with coffee:)
