Valve's Steam BETA Public

73
With what can only be called a brief testing period (except not) Valve Software has publically released the Steam client which allows anyone and everyone to give the new Counter-Strike 1.6 beta a try along with Half-Life completely free. You can grab the client from FileShack.

The Steam Beta is entering its final phase, and is now open to the public. To enter this beta, simply download and run the 500K installer. Steam, a broadband platform for the delivery and management of digital content, currently features a variety of Valve games including Counter-Strike 1.6, which introduces the new riot shield, the official CS bot and more.
