Camp Posted July 30, 2004 Report Share Posted July 30, 2004 What exactly is Steam? I was under the impression it was just Valve's version of battle.net but I get the feeling it's something different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelley Posted July 30, 2004 Report Share Posted July 30, 2004 Its Valve's Content Delivery, Authentication, Subscription, end all be all, etc system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Camp Posted July 31, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2004 It's a subscription service? What benefit does it have for end-users? I'm afraid I don't see the value coming from a company with one real game to their credit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romier S Posted July 31, 2004 Report Share Posted July 31, 2004 It's a subscription service? What benefit does it have for end-users? I'm afraid I don't see the value coming from a company with one real game to their credit. One real game and a mod that is one of the most highly played games on the internet. Steam allows for automatic updates, chatting with friends, finding of servers as well as gives Valve a nice little way of sending gamers special offers etc. etc. As far as I am aware there is no subscription associated. http://www.steampowered.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
