Enjoy! Nearly a year ago I mentioned that Sale Prices would be showing up soon on the Steam Calculator I host here. "Soon" happened to be in Valve Time, so I'm happy to say that it's finally released. With the latest Christmas sale I got my butt in gear and implemented tracking sale prices. You should see them along regular prices as well.Enjoy!

The service has recently announced that not-only is the beta free to try, but that they're also doing away with the monthly subscription model. The only thing you'll have to pay for are the games. Seeing that I had nothing to lose I thought I'd give it a try, on a non-gaming computer, and see if it stood up to scrutiny.



It worked. When OnLive was first announced, I was extremely skeptical. I remember the demonstrations of the Infinium Phantom at E3 in 2004 where rather than actually streaming a game to the system, the developers had hidden PCs behind boxes and were just playing right off of those.

Quote: “There’s been a fair bit of criticism aimed at Microsoft that we were spending a lot of our focus on console, and we need to be putting resources behind PC as well,” Microsoft Games Studios’ general manager Dave Luehmann told MCV in an interview.



“Other companies should look to Microsoft for leadership, but I’m not sure they do. It is our job to lead the way on PC. And in some ways we are doing that and in other ways we are not. So we need to step up.





Quote: “We are putting some real investment and big IPs behind the Windows platform. We’ve spoken of the first three, Fable III , Age of Empires Online and Microsoft Flight. However we are not going to stop there.”

We will test some ideas – some will work and some won’t.” In an interview with MCV Microsoft states that theybe the leader in the PC platform and have other companies look at them as a model to follow. They claim that Fable III , Flight, and Age of Empires Online represent an investment in the platform. Shocking statement, considering that hardly anyone plays first person shooters on the PC any more.
