Codemasters boards the Steam train

Venturing outside your home can be a hazardous experience. Helicopters plummeting from the sky, volcanoes spewing forth magma and flocks of flesh-eating toucans looking for their next meal all threaten to end your existence at any moment. None of these dangers compare to the human beings frequenting your local Gamestop, however, always attempting to ensnare you in pointless conversations about who would win in a fight between Sephiroth and Blinx the Cat. Valve and Codemasters understand that you want to avoid all that.

Hence (via extremely long-winded and largely irrelevant opening paragraph)! The European publisher's games are now being digitally distributed on Valve's Steam platform. The critically acclaimed (also, panned) Jericho takes top billing, followed by evil minion sim Overlord and the superb racer Dirt. Future Codemasters titles such as Turning Point: Fall of Liberty will also be made available on Steam day and date with their retail release. Marvel at the convenience!
