This is the most activity Steam has seen so far. I'm sure they'll get their stability issues sorted out as they know their service will only become bigger. Valve will definitely be dedicating more resources to it.
I've been tracking Steam's user statistics for a while and in only a few short months, the concurrent peak users per day jumped from around 1.5 million to close to 1.9 million. That being peak users, that probably means that over a million new people have signed up for ...
I highly, highly, highly doubt that Diablo 3 will be released in 2009. Late 2010 at the soonest.
I expected Mario to be on the list.
Depends whether or not your have a fast Internet connection. It's a very large download, so if you don't have a fast connection then it'd be best to buy retail. The retail version will require Steam, so it'll be added to your Steam game list.
Ew, Cliff Bleszinski is on the list.
Resident Evil 4 PC was developed by Ubisoft. It had no mouse support and used PS2 assets instead of the better quality Gamecube assets.
Capcom learned from their mistake with that port and are now are doing ports exclusively in-house. Their Devil May Cry 4 port was VERY good. The SLI-scaling is almost linear, which is quite amazing.
Steam is the future.

That's a trophy update, not the Titan Pack.
The patch and Titan Pack released on the PC today. The PS3 will get them two weeks from now.
Death Toll is definitely the easiest campaign. It's very open making it easy to get zombies before they get to you.
Rebranded 9800 GTX+ with bigger frame buffer. Move along, nothing to see here.
The Steam auto-update will be available in an hour or two, but for those who don't want to wait...

mrnintendo96, can you please rephrase that? It makes no sense.
Yeah, if it's on two platforms, then it's not exclusive.
I guess you could say it's a Microsoft-exclusive, though, as it's only available through Xbox Live and Games for Windows Live.
Did you at least create a support ticket with them?
Steam doesn't just close accounts for no reason.
I'm using the 181.71's for Windows 7. They work great.
The demo seems to work well. Only problem I have is that the graphics look a little washed out and blurry, unlike the 360 version which is contrasted and sharp. Maybe I just have to tweak some settings.
Huh? The PC version of HAWX was always going to be released a week after the console versions.
EDIT: Oh, wait. Totally read that article incorrectly. It's been pushed back another week, so it'll be released two weeks after the console release.
I think the score is justified well in the text. The game does have a few technical issues that are definitely major enough to factor into the score. But at least those problems will be patched out in the coming weeks.
