(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); I know Steam is a gaming thing, but what exactly is it? Like you buy full games there and just download them or you have to go to the store and buy the disc? Please help cause I'm really interested in it.

Either really will work
and its a gaming serive for pc
disks or downloadables are available

its like if u dnt have the computer game its just a big store 4 them but if have the game and install it in steam it will fined updates and keep all your trophies and awards on that game and much more

ok so lets say I wanna get BF3 but don't wanna go buy the disc, I can buy the game on steam and have the full game?

you should be able to yes

Ok, thanks!

yeah any game playable on steam you can mostly download :y:

You cant get BF3 on steam, only on Origin.

I like to think of it as iTunes for games. You make a Steam account, download the Steam client, and you can look through the store online using the client. You can buy many games using PayPal or your credit card or whatever, and once you've bought them they go onto your accounts game library. You can then download the games from your library on your PC/Mac (lol). Though I think you can only have your Steam account registered on one PC at a time, but you can change if you get a new PC or something.

You would have to download Origin to get BF3 because BF3 will not be on steam. But you can download other games like COD or L4D directly to your computer
