But there are exceptions to popular titles, as stated above.

Can I designate an item as a gift?
In regards to Blizzard's game titles, you can only designate Digital Downloads as gifts. Doing so will send a transferable authentication key to your email address for you to give to someone at your discretion. For other products that you wish to gift to someone, simply add their address to your Address Book and send the order there.

I haven't seen exceptions. The indie bundles might be a bit of an exception the way they're done, but they must have Steam keys to participate here.
I'd love to see a place that lets me gift games from other stores, but I don't know of one. (You can of course find other ways to gift, such as posting on the forum, but there's no official way to do this.)
(And I copied the text this time before the logout. Yay.)

Not exactly, Blizzard is in the right here.
Also they're suing Valve that owns Steam, not the store itself.

People are just going to use high ticket games to spam for more points. Its difficult to verify non-steam games as being legit, and with this it will be even harder, and there will be people trying to sell/trade/giveaway accounts.

This has been suggested before, but BF3 and Minecraft were two exceptions that we tried out months ago. We have not added any further non-Steam games into the system. If we do add further titles, they will be independent and not strictly belonging to a non-Steam platform. This seems far more in the nature of SteamGifts than allowing Origin or GOG games.

Veidali is right, BF3 strictly belongs to steam, I don't see why you couldn't add a couple of other exceptions for just as popular games.

I know this is a place for steam games only, but I noticed you made some exceptions to more popular titles.
I think it would a great new addition to the site to add some Blizzard titles like Starcraft 2, the World of Warcraft expansions and game card, the upcoming Diablo III and etc.
I don't see a problem because they can be bought digitally and activated digitally.
