Pretty much all the new stuff ends up here, plus sales, pre-releases, Betas, etc

Thanks, Bulltahr, for the info; I'll check it out, for sure!!

It's great if you like to play games on your PC Bob. Wait for the sales to buy games as most get discounted by 75% if not more. Games are also tied to your account so you can play them on any pc or laptop as long as you log in.

Thanks, Danielle!!

I prefer to not play on my PC/laptop because I'm afraid that something bad will happen to those devices; I've not, as you know, had the greatest luck with either of them.

I own a Xbox 360, I know, it's an antique, nowadays!!

I own a XBox 360 too.

I like games such as Splinter Cell, GTA etc.

I have never owned a PC game; are they easy to play?

Most of the Steam games work with an xbox controller (or other controller though most come premapped to the xbox buttons). I play GTA on pc with xbox controller.

Depends what you like playing though. I play a lot of strategy type stuff which tends to be point and click with the mouse and keyboard.

Why is/are they called Steam?? I've not ever heard that terminology before.

I honestly don't know off the top of my head. If I had to guess it may due to the original name of the full company was named valve. Sort of the water theme.

It's just a name. Valve is the parent company (like Microsoft), and Steam is the product (like Xbox). Like liger said, probably just a theme on the names.

You might enjoy Planetside 2 then, similar, but way bigger. MMOFPS. And it's free to play. The PC version is best.
