To quickly get you up to speed: Wolfire claims that Valve uses its position with Steam to control game prices and muscle out competition.

    Rebellion and developer Big Boat Interactive just released a new RTS/FPS hybrid game Battlezone: Combat Commander today through both Steam and GOG.com.

    Now, I'm calling it a "new" game but in reality it's actually a remaster of the classic Battlezone 2, which came out back in 1999 from Pandemic Studios. Oh Pandemic, I miss you dearly. This remaster includes some 4K resolution support, DirectX 11 shading and rendering, high resolution textures, and more. Perhaps best of all...
