I used to play a lot of touch screen games when I was younger. The problem is the lack of support for touch screen. Support for games is non-existent too, so Steam calling itself a store is a bit of a joke.To top it all off, client is still at v1.0 after two years.For me the only controllers I own are some Xbox controllers.

Purchase and download are less than seamless, no where near as straightforward as the app store. Literally, it will login ten times in a row automatically and on the eleventh login tell me it needs my details. As an example, it keeps randomly forgetting my login credentials. It crashes on shutdown too! Did I mention it crashes?The app also exhibits strange behavior. It crashes randomly during game launch often enough to be tiring. It crashes on start-up at least two out of every three times you launch it. I could not have been more wrong.Let's start with the client. I thought, na ively, that there couldn't be that much difference between the two. I installed Steam, in lieu of buying in the App Store, to save about $10 on the purchase of two games. Quite simply, you just can't do without it. Steam is anВ online games platform that's indispensableВ for those who love video games and don't want to miss anything. Finally, it's increasingly common for new games to require activation through Steam to work properly, a security method which makes it impossible to share games with friends. This is especially apparent considering that the list of games coming out every day continues to grow, without there being a real way to navigate these new titles. Navigating the catalog isn't always easy, and it's sorely lacking in maneuverability when you want to randomly browse through playlists. Loading store pages is often slower with the client, and you can't open different pages in different tabs, meaning you're forced to wait for a page to load without being able to do anything else. Unfortunately, Steam does have a few issues, and it's outdated interface has started to show its age. Another big advantage of Steam is that game updates are automatic, so you won't have to worry about frantically searching for a patch.

You'll find all purchased games in the library, where you can manage them in multiple ways, including a section for Recently Played and Favorites. The interface is very similar to the website, and downloaded games are installed directly onto yourВ computer in just a few seconds.

Steam requires you to createВ an account in orderВ to start acquiringВ content, but it's a quick and effortless process. Keep your eyes peeled so you don't miss out on a bargain.

Last but not least, Steam's known for its great promotions that can lower the price of games by up to 75%. You can also connect with friends to discuss or start a game. The forums can help you find interest groups or partners for casual gaming. The Steam client also maintains it's social dimension, allowing you to share a lot of information and content with a very active community.
