Steam?

Okay so this isn't a post on games really, but I just wanted to go into further detail as to what I mentioned in my first post: Steam. As I said before, it is a platform for which I play games on my PC. You download it for free off the website; http://store.steampowered.com/. It has a store of games that you can purchase and it keeps all of the games you bought saved together in its library for easy access instead of going through the trouble of finding the icon on your desktop. It has sales for different games going on that change about once a week or so which gives people the chance to buy a game they want at a lower price than what it normally is. There are a number of free games too for people with no money to spend. It connects with the internet and you can play online with friends, or just random people and make friends. It is a great way for meeting new people all around the world and it has a friends list that you can add them to if you want to play with them again. The friends list also has an instant messaging system so you can message each other, or you can use the chat option to talk to one another. There is a lot more you can do with Steam, but this is just a brief overview of what it can do and I will explain more about it as I begin to review games.

Hello!

My name is Sara Langborgh. This is my first blog ever and I am creating it for my class on computers in college. I am a huge gamer so I figured that would be the best topic to use for my first blog site. Most of my blogs will be game reviews of games I have played or games I currently play. I mainly play online on the PC and use a platform for gaming called Steam so most of my games will be sold on Steam. So I hope you enjoy my thoughts on the games I have played and feel free to shout out your own thoughts on them.
