I am interested in hearing about your experiences with direct downloads of games. I have had no problems with small independent companies like Spiderweb Software, or Rake In Grass. In fact it has been very easy to use their download services and keycodes. Manifestogames and Gametunnel both were every easy to use as well to download independent games. I have also used Gamersgate and Gametunnel to buy a few games directly. These required me to directly download special downloaders so I could buy the games. I have heard of other services like Steam and Direct2drive which I have not used. The game store near me now only sells nintendo and PS3 mostly. There are very few older games available or independents. I have found a few bargains on the download sites-- Evil Islands, Kult Heretic Kingdom, Gothic II, and of course all the Spiderweb downloads. I am looking forward to downloading Echelon Book 1. I have heard some very interesting things about downloading games. That downloads are good for places like Australia, New Zealand, and other places where it is cheaper to buy a download of a game than a boxed game. Please tell me about your experiences with downloading games to buy.
What I would really like is if I could download Icewind Dale instead of having to buy the boxed game. I would like to be able to purchase the download.
