(and I mainly like games who have a Online side in Steam, other games are usually purchasable in another way, with a disc and all...)
You can always redownload them, if Valve has mercy on you, because they can simply suspend it and you'd be fooked, since it's the internet there's nothing you can do about it either.

This is the reason why I only make Steam purchases for small games like this, for regular games I'm too much of a collector. I want a manual and a nice box, and Steam can't offer me that. This all makes it horribly overpriced as well, Steam is a financial ripoff to such a degree I simply can't understand why it's so popular.
