   Valve's Steam platform has really come a long way since its first commercial release in March 2004. From that dreadful system which prevented so many from playing their more-or-less-legit copy of Half-Life 2, slowly but surely, it's now turned into a great tool for gamers, indie developers and big publishers alike, gathering more than 13 million accounts. With an increasing number of games - old and brand-spanking-new - and a solid set of features, not to mention the recent free releases (Half-Life 2: Deathmatch + Lost Coast and RACE: Caterham), could things get any better?...

   Apparently they can. Just a couple of days ago, the folks from Bizarre Creations released the Windows XP version of Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved on Steam, for $2.50 (although, starting tomorrow, the game will be priced at $3.95). Geometry Wars is now also available as part of a new "Best of the Underground" compilation, which also include Ragdoll Kung Fu, eets, and Gumboy: Crazy Adventures. And in couple of weeks or so, Valve's digital distribution platform will receive its largest update to date.
"Beginning in July, Steam users can set up their own personal Steam pages and profiles, create and join groups, schedule games with friends, review who they've played with, see how well everyone played, chat with groups, chat via voice, and more. These new community services and features can be used with all Steam games, which include new releases and classic titles from leading publishers and independent developers."    Valve's announcement also states that all these new features will be free of charge, and Gabe Newell further teases us, adding that "this latest update is just the start", and that they have "a long list of items that we're working on to make it easier for gamers to connect and play games on Steam". Keep 'em coming!
