Today Jamin shares his thoughts on Steam's announcement that they will start offering refunds for games. With a window of 2 hours of gameplay before you can't return the game, does this pose problems for game designers who make shorter games? Could people start abusing the return policy to essentially play entire games before getting their money back? Let us know what you think in the comments!
