Steam - valve's online game distribution service, still painfully slow but you have to agree it's growing very rapidly. Some people doesn't like that at all. Anyways i just notice that steam official site giving away some free games, there is no catch; the only thing you need a steam account, that's all. And one more thing you have to use ATI or NVIDIA card and i think most of you using either one of the cards.

Here is the link: http://www.steampowered.com/ati_offer1a/

Steam offering total 4 games - Half Life 2: Deathmatch, Half Life 2: Lost Coast, Peggle Extreme and Portal: first slice which has 11 levels from full game. ATI card owner can download first 2 games - HL2 Deathmatch and HL2: Coast to Coast.

Here is the link: http://www.steampowered.com/nvidia/

On the other hand NVIDIA card owner can download 2 additional games beside those 2 offered for ATI users - Peggle Exteme and Portal. If you haven't played Peggle - just try it, awesome puzzle game and i don't think i need to say anything about Portal. I already have Orange Box, so only game i downloaded is HL2: Deathmatch, FYI other games are included in the Orange Box. And one more thing you can't download NVIDIA games if you have an ATI card.

I still have one Team Fortress 2 guess pass and it's going to be expired on 21st this month, so if anyone wants to play TF2 - just PM me.

Anyone here interested about Warhammer games? I am not a huge Warhammer fan more like Warcraft, Age of empire enthusiast when it comes to RTS games. But i have to agree i enjoyed Warhammer 40k games. The online reason now i am downloading the beta cause i read GameInformer( June 08 ) article on this game and several gameplay features made me a future fan. I want to add some quote from GI - "...the focus has shifted toward encouraging players to taka part in large public PvP areas that can be found in nearly every zone." Check the IGNs beta preview if you want to learn more about the almost finished game. http://pc.ign.com/articles/906/906266p2.html

From the sceenshots and gameplay video game is looking exceptionally polished and ready to go. I am hoping to post another blog after playing the game for several hours. i never played World of warcraft and only MMORPG i played for over 100 hours is Dungeon Runners. i never like the monthly subscription fee that is $15, warhammer will have same kinda fee, so i am sure i am not going to play the full game even if i like the game, in my opinion online game should follow the fps game rule like Team Fortress, Call of Duty, where you buy a game and play as long as you wish without paying extra money.

if you are wondering from where i am downloading the beta, the answer is on the image above - Fileplanet. From their site beta will be playable from September 7th so i am going to play that game 12 days before most the gamers and also i don't have to pay a dime. It will take some time to finish the downloading - it's almost 10 GB (9.38 exactly). According to the official site so far almost 900K people applied for beta participation, not bad for game that is not related with WOW.
