Valve Announces SteamOS
Valve promised us three announcements this week. People are hoping for things like the long-awaited Steam Box, an official debut of the Source 2 engine and, as always with a Valve announcement, Half-Life 3.
However, Valve’s major announcement caught everyone completely off guard. While we were expecting hardware or a game, we instead got a new computer operating system that Valve calls SteamOS.

Steam Announces Family Sharing Service
One of the few popular features of the Xbox One is making a return. However, game sharing is not making its way to Xbox but Steam.
Starting with a beta rollout next week, Steam will allow you to share games with other users on the same computer.

Sixteen New Titles Greenlit on Steam
A quick FYI for people on Steam who might not always check the Greenlight section of the site. Valve announced a group of sixteen game and software titles that will soon be available on the digital distribution service thanks to the crowd voting on Greenlight.

Steam Summer Sale: July 21, 2013
We’ve reached the final day of the 2013 Steam Summer Sale. There is less than 24 hours to get a hold of any games that you are interested in while they’re still on sale.
To celebrate the final day of the sale, Steam is bringing back some of its most popular sales to give you one last chance to save some money and get some great games. If only I didn’t get all the games on my wishlist before now…

Steam Summer Sale: July 20, 2013
We’ve reached the final weekend of the 2013 edition of the Steam Summer Sale and there are still some good deals to be had.
For example I liked Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed as a kart racing game. If you want a good karting game for the PC, you could do far worse that SASRT (even if the acronym is terrible). Also, the KOTOR games are on sale. Buy them. Don’t think about any issues you might have playing an older game. KOTOR is essential gaming.

Steam Summer Sale: July 19, 2013
Time is quickly running out of this year’s Steam Summer Sale and you can really tell. All the big deals are just being recycled at this point in the Daily Deals. Okay, that’s not news. At least it gives you a chance to make up for missed Flash Sales.
That’s not to say that there aren’t some good deals for the next 48 hours.

Steam Summer Sale: July 18, 2013
We’re reaching the home stretch of the Steam Summer Sale. I haven’t reached three digits spending yet but I think that Steam is going to make a late push for my money.
By the way, I was right about Torchlight II being the featured sale today. I’m thinking that Skyrim will be tomorrow’s featured deal. I guess that I didn’t have to rush to get Skyrim: Legendary Edition on that recent Community Pick.
And watch out because The War Z is on sale as a Daily Deal under the name Infestation: Survivor Stories.. For the love of god, don’t buy this game.

Steam Summer Sale: July 17, 2013
Another day, another fresh set of Steam Summer Sale deals. Some of today’s daily deals might seem a bit familiar because they have been flash sales and community choice sales during the first six days of the sale. Still, it never hurts to have a second chance.

Steam Summer Sale: July 16, 2013
First, sorry that I missed yesterday’s breakdown. I’ll have those daily deals for you below.
So we’re on to Day 6 of the annual Steam Summer Sale. We’ve reached the halfway point of the 12 day sale (assuming that the sale ends at 1:00 PM Eastern on July 22nd) and it seems like I’m finally going to start hurting my wallet something fierce today.

Steam Summer Sale: July 12, 2013
Welcome to Day 2 of the 2013 Steam Summer Sale. I have gotten through the first day completely unscathed. I was very close to buying Skyrim: Legendary Edition but I decided to hold out to see if I can find a better deal.
Anyway, here’s a look at today’s Daily Deal and the latest round of Flash Sales and the Community Pick.
