Basically, no, never Wink | ;)

In reality, sometimes you have to open ports. Unless there is a known vulnerability with that game, noone will have an additional point of entry to your system, because any connections to those ports will be evaluated by the game.

Your system, however, will be more visible if anyone tries to probe these ports.

After all, I regularly open ports to play games online, but I keep them shut when I do not use the game that needs them.

Cheers,
Sebastian
