Steam to sell NON-GAMING Software! Surprised?!


I hope your not, because about 40 million Steam users (which I'm assuming you're among those) would like to see their favorite non-gaming software come to the Steam platform.  That's right. soon you'll be able to download Dark Souls side-by-side with your favorite accounting software.  NERD OUT!


Valve is opening up Steam to non-gaming software... The first software titles will be released on September 5th.

Non-gaming software sold via Steam will take advantage of the platform's Steamworks features, which include simplified installation, auto-updating, and the ability to save work to the Steam Cloud for cross-platform access from multiple computers.

I wonder who'll be the first person to say "I can't wait to go home so I can download the latest QuickBooks from Steam!"
