Eidos and Valve, sitting in a tree
There was a time when I held disdain towards Steam but that was pretty short lived. Ever since I bought my first game through steam (which was Day of Defeat: Source) I’ve freaking loved it. SO easy, so convenient. And now I can get Eidos games through it too!
This first agreement includes complete franchise sets of classics such as Tomb Raider, Commandos, and many of the Hitman titles. In addition, Eidos is bringing some of this year’s most highly anticipated releases to Steam, including Tomb Raider: Anniversary, Championship Manager 2007, and more.
Arriving today, the first wave of Eidos titles available to Steam gamers around the world includes many of the Hitman titles, Battlestations: Midway, Just Cause, and the entire Commandos series. Pricing information is available at Steamgames.com, and news of additional Eidos games heading to Steam will be announced in the coming weeks.
My personal favourite thing about Steam recently has been that I can get old games I missed when they were new for cheap, and I don’t even have to get off my lazy butt and root through a discount bin to do it.
Good stuff!
