I appreciate that Valve is communicating really well about this problem (way better than Sony did after they were hacked). Now why can't they communicate this well about HL3?

I'm not surprised about the recent update since the hacked FBI call mentions the Steam situation.

I'm glad my bank decided to send me another debit card because some 3rd party they worked with was compromised, It covers both breaches for me.

It's funny, it doesn't matter what happens over at valve it always comes back to HL3.

Sony gets hacked: Unencrypted card details stolen, network goes down for weeks.

Valve gets hacked: Old backup file and encrypted card details stolen, no noticeable problems except forum was closed for a while.

someone got my account and tried to get access for a while... annoying that i had to change my password.

Oh, so I have nothing to worry about because I made my account in 2009. That's a relief.

 

[tolham]

this is why i don't let websites save my credit card info.

I don't know about getting hacked, but I think this phishing website under the guise of "Steam Works" and "Valve Software" nailed me for a bunch of transactions between Christmas and New Years last year. Apparently an investigation is ongoing by EA.
