Steam’s Android app hints at non-gaming software delivery
Steam’s Android app has been snapped listing categories from photo editing to accounting, as seen on The Verge. Gabe’s been talking about adding non-game stuff to Steam for at least four years – I asked him about it at Games Convention in 2008, I think, and he said it was on the cards – so don’t be too shocked. The “Genre” section of the app’s index also lists education and software training, with a total of ten additional categories over those shown in the Steam desktop client. Valve’s made no comment as yet.

Warp appears on Steam, but still no EA-Valve agreement
As handily pointed out by VG247 reader DSB, Warp — a recently released EA-published puzzler — is currently available on Steam with a sizable list of Origin-related restrictions. That, of course, is a bit “Bwaaaah?”-worthy, seeing as EA and Valve spent the better part of last year at each other’s throats over Valve’s “restrictive” terms of service. So then, have the two finally kissed, made up, and sworn to forever be BFFs on Gabe Newell’s beard? No such luck, EA has told VG247.
