So what is this Steam thing?  :unsure:
I do exactly what the little voices tell me to.

PC Specs:- Black box with some fans that go whirrr, a few lights, things inside that get warm, headphones, keyboard (a clicky one), mouse (with buttons and no squeak), disks (2-off SSD and HDD) and a monitor of sufficient proportions.

Counter-strike with knobs on. If you've got broadband it's a 'must have'.

From CSNation ...

QuoteKeep in mind that Steam does not mean Counter-Strike 1.6. CS 1.6 could still be ways off, but the content delivery program called Steam is nearing completion.

Steam is VALVe's method of online game distribution. Using Steam, developers can cut out publishers from the release process; which means developers will be able to take in more profits and have more control over the game itself.

Either Counter-Strike: Condition Zero or Half-Life 2 will be the first retail game sold over the Steam platform.
