Half-Life 2 launching on Macs this Wednesday
Posted on May 25, 2010 | No CommentsIt’s so appropriate yet sad that Alyx is tasked with announcing the six-year old Half-Life 2’s Mac launch. But really there’s no shame in playing the some-what old Half-Life 2 even today. It’s one of the games that we agreed with in PC Gamer’s top games of all time list. But it’s yet another sign [...] -
Prima strategy guides now on Steam. Yup, Prima still makes strategy guides!
Posted on May 20, 2010 | No CommentsGot an e-mail from the good folks at Steam a few moments ago detailing a new feature y'all might be interested in.

Irony: Did Rockstar upload a pirated version of Max Payne 2 to Steam?
Posted on May 12, 2010 | No CommentsWell this is interesting. A person far cleverer than any of us here decided, on a whim, to look at the main executable of the Steam version of Max Payne 2 in a text editor. Because that's what you do, you know? Anyhow, a funny little thing appears: the ASCII logo of famed release group (now defunct) Myth. In other words, it sure does look like Rockstar uploaded a cracked (PIRATED OMG OMG OMG) version of the game to Steam's servers! You can't make this stuff up.

CrunchDeal: Left 4 Dead 2 for $20 on Steam
Posted on April 23, 2010 | No Comments
Curse you Steam store, and all your weekend deals. I'm weak before your offers of gaming goodness, and my list of games in the new Steam client grows ever larger. It's particularly bad when you offer games like Left 4 Dead 2 for $20. Don't tell my wife, I just clicked on that buy button.
