== History == Launched in 2004, IGN reported "exponential growth in sales" since that time. It offered over 3,000 titles through relationships with more than 300 game publishers. Direct2Drive sponsored a $10,000 award at the Independent Games Festival called the D2D Vision Award, which "celebrated independent developers exemplifying innovation in design coupled with excellence in game-play". In 2009, the site made headlines by refusing to sell Activision's Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 due to that game's integration with Valve's Steamworks service. Users buying Modern Warfare 2 from a reseller such as Direct2Drive would be forced to also download and install the Steam client.
