My point is, I wonder if Steam will fix the typos. And maybe use the original tracks.


The original tracks are a rights nightmare so that most likely will not happen, however MangaGamer has a history of revising scripts of their older titles for new releases. Edelweiss was basically retranslated for the hard copy release, and Shuffle got a large number of revisions as well for the hard copy release earlier this year.

Many people still prefer disc; something Xbox rediscovered not too long ago.

Definitely not PC gamers, as shown by the overwhelming force that Steam and other similar applications/tools have had on the PC gaming market.

When you can get huge deals (like how I recently picked up Dead Space, Dead Space 3, Burnout Paradise, Crysis 2, Battlefield 3, Mirror's Edge, C&C Red Alert 3: Uprising, Medal of Honor, and Populous for a grand total of $5) then the disc doesn't seem all that important anymore.


True. And as consoles become more like PCs, more people would get used similar to how Steam does things.

And yeah, those Steam sales got us so many games for cheaps we don't even have time to play yet. Plus there are places to get those Steam cards for even cheaper, as are Xbox Point cards (literally got tens of thousands of MS Points, and now that MS switching Points to $$ like PSN, it's like paying pennies for the dollar....... man, gonna miss those Points cards Laughing ).
