I just went through the lengthy process of trying to regain access to my “Hijacked” Steam Account for COD Black Ops. Are you fucking kidding me? I just knew some shit like this would happen because of Steam. I have successfully avoided installing this “STD” of a program on my computer until they attached it to a game franchise that I love, with the exception of MW2. As time goes by, the cons are getting close to outweighing the pros with Black Ops. Now I get to sit back for a response from Steam Support. I know I am in a very long line. Worst of all, if a ban by VAC has been put on me due to this hijacking taint stain, Steam cannot lift the ban. I think they call it “Steam” because that is what spews from your ears, nose, mouth and eyes when dealing with it.
Furthermore, I have actually had this account with Stem since Half Life 2. Luckily, I did not have to have Steam running to play that game.
This is all due to Acitivision. The issues with that company are too long to discuss here. But, they can suck my balls.
