Ha, it would appear "***" is automatically being blocked / removed due to possible affiliate to Russian websites and / or scams. I've fixed your post to include a working link.

It's literally the continuation of a massive event from last year, and one of Valve's most publicly damaging. Did you read the article? We're actually FOR this move this time around.

If you're reading this, you likely remember how 2015's sudden introduction of paid mods to the Steam Workshop turned out to be one of Valve's biggest ever blunders, with both Valve and feature-partners Bethesda quickly retreating from the idea only days after it was introduced. At the time...

In a rather quiet week, we've somehow managed to create a Round-Up episode focused exclusively on the Portal and Half-Life series of games. Topics discussed include J.J Abram's recent acknowledgement of the Half-Life and Portal films, the return of the Half-Life: A Place in the West fan comic...

How don't our existing definitions fit these particular circumstances? They are perfectly adequate.

This has just come down to another ridiculous fight over semantics. It reminds me of the old "Walking Simulators vs. Video Games" discussion. In those cases, you could easily define "walking simulators" as "experiences" because you don't actually do anything in, for example, Dear Ester outside...

The definition of a "game" has nothing to do with whether or not the product is a selection of mini-games or not. These are gameplay experiences.

This past week, although initially quiet, ended with some rather big news and a few first-timers! It saw Valve announce their first truly new game in over 4 years, with "The Lab" set to feature the return of Aperture Science as the player travels through a series of smaller experiments exclusive...

Sounds more like a scam than an account breach / hack, his Steam profile calls out someone for "scamming". In my opinion, being scammed is something Valve are even less likely to give assistance for, as it likes means a lack of care or attention was taken.

We're not Valve, sorry! You should contact Steampowered.com's Support pages instead.

Portal 2's final DLC introduced the multi-verse, which featured an infinite number of pocket universes. While it was never used much in Portal 2, it gives Valve the narrative freedom to do just about whatever they want with Aperture and the universe without messing up the main "canonical"...

Welcome! =D

With the massive SteamVR leak last Monday and the recent influx of news, we've only just managed to get a new Round-Up out the door! In this fortnight's episode, we're recapping all the latest regarding the state of Aperture Robot Repair and the HTC Vive, the return of CS:GO's Nuke map, the...

As first discussed several weeks ago, this evening's update to Team Fortress 2 has added the necessary content to allow users to begin beta testing the long-awaited Competitive Matchmaking mode. Added content includes the Competitive Beta Pass item, new menu options, and minor updates to several...

Following the reveal of the initial price point for the HTC Vive yesterday afternoon, this morning briefly saw Valve jump the gun by releasing the “SteamVR Performance Test” a little too early. The application is used to analyse a system’s CPU, GPU, and OS performance over the course of two...

I totally agree with lolcomputer on this point, I've been championing this idea for the past year since Valve and HTC announced the Vive. It's too perfect for those setups to not be used.

In an official press release from HTC earlier today, it was revealed the Vive virtual reality headset, created in partnership by Valve and HTC, will ship for $799 when it first arrives in early April 2016. When it is made available for pre-purchase in just a few days on February 29th 2016, the...

Let's be clear and honest here - a game being "better" than another doesn't mean you have to enjoy it more. I enjoyed Portal 2 on my first playthrough more than I enjoyed Half-Life 2 on my first playthrough, but Half-Life 2 is definitely the better and more complete of the two games.

How come we can't have a discussion about which is the better game, and why?
