    Idea just popped into my head, on Steam at least, I've a few hundred euros worth of stuff, mainly bought in sales, so maybe didn't spend all that, but still.

    If I dropped dead in the morning, I'd like to know that "my" games would go on being enjoyed for years to come!

    I've a WoW account with a level 80 Warlock and Paladin, but I'm so bored with the game I'm actually thinking of selling it - which is against Blizzards terms of service. So if they won't let you sell them, they probably won't let you leave them in a will.

    Why don't you just write down your user/pass in an envelope and say here...give so and so this when I die. Easy ?!


    Selling WoW accounts etc is a bit gay tbh.

    You take your Steam account with you to the afterlife, <3 Valve.

    Well, the reason I ask is because most if not all online services state that you can't allow a third person to use your accounts.

    So Steam might get a bit suspicious in 150 years time when my great great great grandkids are logging in.

    I used to play Eve Online many moons ago. Started playing just after Beta, and had 40 million sp on my account and its was highly skilled in Warfare.

    I sold my account on Ebay not long after the Titan patch came out.

    I got €750 euro for it, twice as much as i was expecting.
