Rockstar's games on Steam
Ten percent discount this week.
Rockstar has added its not inconsiderable PC games catalogue to Valve's digital distribution service Steam, offering a ten percent discount on all its available products until 11th January to celebrate the launch.
The ten games available initially are Grand Theft Auto I, II, III, Vice City and San Andreas, Midnight Club II, Max Payne and Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne, Manhunt and Wild Metal Country.
As well as individual purchases, Steam users can buy the entire Rockstar Collection for USD 62.95 (normal price USD 69.95), a Grand Theft Auto Collection for USD 39.10 (USD 43.45 after 11th January) or a Max Payne Bundle for USD 17.95 (USD 19.95 normally).
"We were immediately excited by the opportunity to offer our PC catalogue via Steam because it allows us to reach out to gamers around the world in exciting new ways," said Rowan Hajaj, Rockstar's head of finance and corporate development.
"We are continually looking for ways to give back to our fans and this collaboration will give people a chance to easily revisit some of our greatest titles."
Rockstar joins a list of publishers who sell games through Steam which already includes 2K, Activision, Eidos, id Software, SEGA, THQ, PopCap and Majesco. Valve says there are some 13 million Steam accounts around the world.

If they have an ounce of sense, they'd be free on Steam as well.
Edit: Having fired up Steam and done some cursory browsing... There's no price attached to GTA1 and GTA2, but you can only get them in the bundle deals (Full R* collection, GTA collection). Which, frankly, blows.
And it seems everyone's forgotten about GTA1969 and GTA1967, goddammit.

The very first GTA was released as freeware by Rockstar a few years ago and possibly also the second. So you can probably still find them (or it) uploaded on alot of websites.

So you get GTA3, Vice City and San Andreas for £20 (ish) and then get the first two games thrown in for free? Yeah, that blows. *rolleyes*
I guess it's annoying you can't get them separately, but as someone above me as said... they're freeware, you can already just go get them.

The main difference being a tighter grip on the copyrights.
