What Percent Of Steam Games Are Mac In A

Valve says that more than 11 percent of all Steam purchases are for the Mac in a post on its Steam blog.

Nothing more than a first week rush from curious Mac users, you say Maybe, but things look pretty encouraging for the Mac market when you take a few facts into consideration.

Its unclear if the 1.5 million downloads of Portal are included in that 11 percent figure touted by Valve.

Second, Valve still hasnt released its other marquee franchises for the Mac yet, including Team Fortress 2, Left 4 Dead 2, Half-Life 2, or Counterstrike: Source.

In fact, earlier this week, more games became available for the Mac on Steam.

The headliners this time around are cross-platform multiplayer games, including Killing Floor, Altitude, and Madballs in Babo: Invasion.

All three games are also currently available at reduced prices for a limited time.

We were thrilled when we learned that Steam was coming to the Mac platform and started working on a native Mac version of Killing Floor immediately, said John Gibson, President of Tripwire Interactive, creators of Killing Floor.

Steams advanced multiplayer support on both the PC and Mac has enabled us to bring Killing Floor to a whole new audience on the Mac and introduce them to the existing PC player community.

These include Episode 2 of the latest Sam Max Adventure series, The Devils Playhouse.

Steam will augment its growing game library every Wednesday, so keep checking the Game Room to see whats new.
