I have played and purchased every version of Trackmania so far and loved them but, if they went to Steam I assure you I would Never buy any future titles from them.

Ridge Racers and TrackMania is a common genre of games (Arcade Race).
The difference is in the form of the race.
How Hylis said, Ridge Racers is a racing game - with fight.
TrackMania is the purest form of racing - with no collisions, just testing the skills of the pilot (like agility).
TrackMania has features that do not have Stunts Driving.

What is the advantage of Steam?
I ask this as a serious question because I've heard nothing but negative things about Steam and every game I have ever played that was on Steam was a pain in the ass to get working properly. This is the first place I've ever seen anyone say they wanted it.

Yep, someone forced me into steam to play a certain game, which worked fine tbh. There's a big BUT comming though because the other 2 games I downloaded from there didn't work at all, not even after some thorough support.

I'm sure that must be the case but i can't remember the last time something went wrong with installing my legit games manualy ever since winXP.

I always prefer a manual install so I know where everything goes.

Ok, so some like it some do not. I still ask to those who do like it, Why? What is the advantage?

I actually bought a game and could not get it to work after a year of emails and online searches I gave up and decided I was simply out the 40 I spent on the game. This is the reason I say if TM goes to steam I will reluctantly stop buying titles from them. If I spend 40 or 50 on a game I expect to be able to play it or get some real help from the supporting company.
