You Steam The Future?
Posted @ 5:37 AM, July 20 2009, By: BlueWolf72 In Mods, Steam, Steam Games, Team Fortress 2
In a recent interview ABC TV’s Good Game, Valve boss Gabe Newell says Valve wants to let the Steam community fund future game development.
Valve shocked the world with Steam and Gabe is considering a way for you to pay upfront as a community for the game you would play. Imagine paying $30.00 dollars for for another Half-Life, or maybe Opposing Force 2 would you do it?
“One of the areas that I am super interested in right now is how we can do financing from the community. So right now, what typically happens is you have this budget - it needs to be huge, it has to be $10m - $30m, and it has to be all available at the beginning of the project. There’s a huge amount of risk associated with those dollars and decisions have to be incredibly conservative.
What I think would be much better would be if the community could finance the games. In other words, ‘Hey, I really like this idea you have. I’ll be an early investor in that and, as a result, at a later point I may make a return on that product, but I’ll also get a copy of that game.’
So move financing from something that occurs between a publisher and a developer… Instead have it be something where funding is coming out of community for games and game concepts they really like.”

Sniper Elite On Steam
Posted @ 3:51 PM, July 16 2009, By: BlueWolf72 In Steam Games
 Sniper Elite has sniped itself onto Steam today. If you purchase it you also get the 10% discount. I honestly had fun playing this and I hope you do to. Pros: Realistic bullet physics make long-range shooting challenging and satisfying. Cons: Missions can take a long time to complete. If you need a video showing off the game play click here.
World War II draws to a close, the first covert battles of the Cold War begin. Caught in the life and death struggle between Soviets and Germans in war-torn Berlin, you control the fate of a lone American OSS Sniper. Disguised as a German and working deep behind enemy lines you must stop Stalin's forces from gaining control of Germany's nuclear secrets. Prepare to alter the course of history.
Please make sure you post your thoughts after you play!

Pro Cycling Manager 2009 Arrives
Posted @ 3:22 PM, July 10 2009, By: Evo In News, Steam Games
The Tour de France started up again last weekend and moved into the first of the mountain stages today, a great stage I might add. If you enjoy all the action of the Tour and cycling in general then Pro Cycling Manager 2009 is the game for you. I played the previous edition, and whilst the races themselves aren't the best, the management side of the game is pretty fun. New in the 2009 version is the ability to create your own team, I surely will be doing that when I get the chance. Anyway the game is available for £26.99/€35.99/€40.49 until July 17th.
