Powered by Steam

With the improvement over the years in high speed Internet connections to the mass market, comes the ability to pay for and receive digital copies of video games. The digital download service Steam ( http://www.steampowered.com ) is for just that purpose. Steam is a leading platform for the distribution of digital games. The steam platform gives you quite a bit of information on games that it offers for sale.

Steam also has more sales on games then you can possibly imagine. It is common for there to be a sale on certain games every week, and a different sale for the weekend. It is also common for big blowout sales for special events of the year like Christmas and the December holidays.

As Internet speeds and popularity continue to improve, digital distribution will continue to become more popular. Allowing for the ability to purchase and play at our fingertips, Steam will continue to deliver PC games to anyone willing to play them.

  1. I've been impressed with Steam any time I had to use it. I had an urge to play an old school game called Max Payne and I couldn't find it anywhere in stores because of when it was released. I downloaded it on Steam and I think I only paid like 10 bucks. Everything worked out great.

  2. Steam has been adding older games to their store from time to time. They usually come in bundles if possible, which makes them really cheap as a package. Steam has been adding games as old as X-Com, which was released way back in the early 90s.
