Free game for Steam users!

I don't usually talk about video games but i thought today i would post this blog for all my friends because i think they enjoy free stuff as much as i do. Recently a well known computer program called "Steam" has introduced a Mac friendly version of their program to allow gamers with Mac's to play to! Steam is a legit program that has a growing community of gamers. It bought the rights to sell Modern Warfare 2 for the Computer. It was created by a company called Valve. Valve created some of the best games for the computer such as Half-Life, Counter-Strike, Team Fortress etc. All of these games were major sellers and are very popular. One of their games that runs off the Half-Life game engine is called Portal. Portal is a puzzle game where you must get to the end of a obstacle course by creating 2 portals at a time that you can travel through. You use a device that acts like a gun that shoots where you want these portal to end up at. This might sound like an easy challenge to complete but the game is actually very challenging.









A example of 2 portals -















This game concentrated on a very good physics engine to create the best most realistic puzzle game they could. You can actually put on portal above yourself and one below and go through these portal for eternity constantly picking up speed!









The reason I'm telling you about this game is because if you install Steam onto your computer before May 28Th you can download Portal for free! Portal will be free to any one who installs it before May28Th. This is not a free Trial it is completely free with no catches or surveys you have to take. You simply click the install button! Steam is doing this because their computer gaming that allows for in game instant messaging and voice chat has been so successful that they can afford to give it away! This is their way of celebrating of Steam moving onto mac computers!






I thought i would tell every one of this free Puzzle game, its very fun and challenging. Ive played it and i enjoy beating the levels! You can download Steam at this URL http://store.steampowered.com/






I hope you enjoy this game as much as i do! On a side note their is absolutely no cost to you. All it takes is just a little bit of your own time and some computer memory to store the game.
