Now everyone knows how furious L4D fans are about L4D2. If you still havn't heard of the event, please check:

L4D2

L4D2 Boycott (NO-L4D2)

http://steamcommunity.com/groups/L4D2boycott

Shortly speaking, Valve promised to provide continuous updates for L4D during past interviews. Now that L4D2 is on the way, thepromised updates for L4D will be suspended, and the expected things will move to L4D2. I have a mate who said in his blog, "L4D is left 4 dead."

What's my opinion? Well, I'm not a faithful fan who pledges himself to Valve. Now that Valve is being negative, as a consumer, I think I'll stop considering buying more products from Valve furthermore, because there're just toooooo many other games for me to enjoy. Valve do offer great games, but thegames are not so perfect as to totally deny other competitors.

Also, the event makes me start to be worried about Steam. I remember when Steam is born, it's badly objected, since games can only be reached through logging in Steam. If Steam were down one day, the games we paid for would never be available. This is the main idea of the opposer of Steam.

Now that something goes wrong with Valve, it's hard not to think about its performance in the future. If (I mean if) L4D2 is the prologue of Valve'scorruption, I'm afraid that the games hooked to Steam will be in jeopardy. I buy legal games and keep the game discs carefully, but that doesn't assure a carefree availability.

Idon't expect myself to buy L4D2, since Valve makes people frown. As a consumer who cares about the products he pays for, I want to know, "What's wrong with you, Valve?"

It's been a long time since last blog

Where have I been? Well, I spent most of my attention blogging in another game site, Bahamut(http

://www.gamer.com.tw), which is the biggest Chinese game site

Let's talk about gaming. Currently I'm on Stalker: Shadow of Chernobyl, Quake Live, and Rainbow6 LockDown. Now I don't play games so competitively... probably I feel I'm getting old lol

About the real life, well, it's the last semester of my college life and after graduation I'll be serving in the military, which will take me about a year. I plan to buy a totally new computer to replace the old one I'm having now when I retire from the military.

Long time no see, my friends in GameSpot

This is one of the best quotes I've learned in 2008.

The motivation of this blog post starts from a spammer. In "Bahamut", which is the biggest game site in Taiwan, I've a key-pal, i'll call him X, whose personal space in Bahamut is spammed by the messages. It started from a flame war about gameplagiarizing in a thread and this dude kind of got pissed, so he kept on spamming in X's space and accusing X of insulting him (and actually X didn't).

The argument lasted for a while and they even vowed to involve some law actions. Anyway X finally gave up standing against him and merely blocked him off.

"What a moron", said the other mate. That spammer apparently flushed over X's personal space in Bahamut with countless messages. I can't understand what in his mind is. I really want to say "Get a life!" to him. What's his value or purpose of being alive? Is he more than spamming or is he not?

I'm glad that X blocked the spammer and cleared the whole messages. I never argue/flame with people cause I know it'll do me no good. I don't want to result in being spammed like this, because I know I HAVE A LIFE and it's more than arguing about meaningless issues.

Dear spammers, get a life.

Some people just don't have opinions. Like R0An.
R0An must really love MovieTome and agree with every review we've ever written! What other reason could R0An possibly have for not rating a single film?
