You seem to have a habit of posting nonsensical posts. Why would you install the game to your Valve folder for?

Lol...whoop-dee-doo they made a game they call Steam... Steam is just a service, run under the ValvE Trademark. Feel free to scroll down to the bottom of the page if you don't believe me.

Because of that, the game on the website you've provided does not violate any of Valves copyrights, and they cannot be sued for copyright infringement. Although Valve could take legal action against the games creators, simply based on the fact that Valve is trying to protect their brand awareness. But really, why would a major company in the entertainment industry, a near monopoly in size, go to court with a far smaller, far less unknown group of indie game designers simply because they created a game that uses the same name as the Steam store? Hey, after Valve's done suing the heck out of the little guys, maybe they should go after the appliance industry for using steam to power some of their appliances.

leagle action and programs like windows commander become total commander i have seen this happen to half a dozen or more applications even though windows is also a generic just like steam is generic... why dont you down load this game try it so to speak then try to run steam( the game platform ) all you steam apps will be unaccessable till you get steam reinstalled... my mistake was tring to uninstall that stupid game instead of just reinstalling steam...but hind site is 20/20 P.S. as far as your thinking that no company would sue cause its a generic term microsoft has allready set a Precedent Last edited by bigsmellyfart: 04-29-2012 at 04:59 PM. |
