Darwinia was freeware? Do you mean shareware? I believe it had a demo, and then you paid to unlock the rest. Darwinia is still available off-Steam, direct from the developer, as is Defcon, their newest game.
That said, with the Steam versions, if you ever get a new PC you can just log into Steam and re-download full authorized versions with one click. That's pretty hardcore.
Actually, it isn't shareware either. It is simply a full game that one can download a demo (which is an entirely new level in itself) for. Calling Darwinia shareware would be like calling the new S&Ms shareware because they have demos!
I'm available to play TF2. In fact, I could be the medic! Bonesawing people is fun.
Yeah there's no much differentiating shareware from a demo except I guess shareware was propagated by people giving their friends a copy since downloading stuff from the internet took forever. Now a lot of demos are huge and too big for even a CD, plus it's easier to say "go download the demo" instead of "I will burn you a copy of the demo!". Also 'demo' is a shorter word and sounds cooler than 'shareware'. Shareware sounds more friendly though.
Well, my SteamID is 'Mack Daddy' (imagine that) and since I live here in California I usually play on west coast servers preferably with a ping of 50 or less. Telltale does (or did) have a TF2 server a few months back as I recall but I never saw anybody on it.
I'm a member of the Telltale group on the Steam Community so you can look me up if you want or if you find me online playing sometime just say "Hi!".
I occasionally play the PC version. Steam ID Dedlok. Feel free to shoot me an invite but play may die down for a bit due to a certain game coming out sunday. BD
On Steam I'm known as James Bondage. It's, eh, a funny name but I've had it since I played Duke Nukem 3D over the school network (yes, that wasn't allowed) with friends. :P
I'm Veovis (Yes, the one who committed genocide against the D'ni race), and I'm ready to play whenever. I'm in the Group Chat sometimes, but only one person has ever come in to chat.
You guys should definitely go for it, I would love to crit rocket all of you in the face. Just curious, how many player slots are you going for, and where are you planning to get your server? By the way my Steam ID is Quackingstick [CP], if anyone here would like to add me.
man when i bought the game a couple of days ago i didnt think it could get any better but then there's a ttg server ho-ly cuh-rap.btw i need some friends my nickname is ninjarobo110.p.s. if you see my stats it says i play pyro best but im not a w+m1 pyro just so you know
Thanks a bunch, I just joined. By the way, I know I'm sounding noobish, but I don't know how to connect to servers using an adress or an IP. Could some one show me how?
EDIT: Found it out, no need to tell me.

Are you on a Mac Pro? Or a macbook (pro)?

Got a sweet new dual quad-core Mac Pro (with 8800 GT)
Cool! I'm still waiting for mine. Ordered the 8800GT as well, and it should arrive next Tuesday
I still need to buy a second HD, which I plan on using for Bootcamp.

Dual quad-core?
Does Telltale really pay you that well?

maybe see you guys in TF2
Most definitely PC.
EDIT: Now Killing Floor....THERE'S a game...
tf2.telltalegames.com
If you really want to play a cross-platform match, get Shadowrun.
Does that site really exist? It won't show up in my browser.
It's the address of our server. You should be able to connect to it in TF2 (if it's running right now). Also, join this Steam group!
