Steam Mac Client Released and Free Portal

Postby Blink on Wed May 12, 2010 8:15 pm

So, the Steam Mac client finally went live and I've been trying it for bit now. Nothing new in looks but I'm looking forward to trying some games out:

Valve will be releasing updates to the supported game list every Wednesday and you can check out the list now to see what's available.

On top of that you can get Portal free for a limited time:

Portal used to cost money. Until May 24th, it's free. End of story.

Well, technically speaking, there are some strings attached. Fortunately, they're entirely decorative. We just like the way they look, swaying in the gentle breeze created by a million people simultanously fainting from shock at the news that Portal is free. Now you have no reason not to try Portal.


Head this way to read more.

As News post pictures go, that's one of the best.

Edit

Hold on hold on hold on hold on hold on, did I just hear "co-operative Portal testing initiative?"

2 player portal? Not possible, surely?

Yay, free portal! Oh wait...

I can't wait to play with Mac owners, they're so trendy, what with their starbucks, combovers, indie bands, and angled pictures of their face!

Everyone gets Portal for free, not just people on Macs.
It's quite simple really. I want to be a professional level designer. I want this to be my job.
