I have been asked this more times than I can count. If you’re a user of Steam then this post does not apply to you. So let us get on with the question of Steam. What is it?
Steam is a popular digital distribution platform for video games. It’s also a social networking site and a digital marketplace. In addition to offering digital game downloads, steam also allows gamers to trade in-game items and gifts.
The steam platform has a major impact on the gaming industry. It’s a go-to destination for gamers of all levels, from casual to hardcore. And it’s not just PC gamers who use steam. The platform is also popular with console gamers and mobile gamers.
“Overall, the steam platform has had a positive impact on the gaming industry.”
There are a few reasons why steam is so popular. First, it’s convenient. Gamers can buy, download, and play games all in one place. Second, it’s affordable. Gamers can often find good deals on games, especially during sales. And third, it’s social. Gamers can connect with friends and other gamers from around the world.
The steam platform has also had a major impact on the way games are developed and published. Because steam is so popular, many developers and publishers are now releasing their games on the platform. This has changed the landscape of the gaming industry, and it’s something that we’re keeping a close eye on.

Steam is unique because it was the first cloud-based gaming platform on a massive scale. Back in the day before 2003, we would collect game boxes. I would go to places like Boomerang Gameware (Memphis, TN), Egghead Software, EB Games, Best Buy, and CompUSA to buy the latest PC game. Then Steam arrived and many of us were like, “I will never buy a game in the cloud.” (That did not last long) The rest was history!
Does this help? I hope so.
