We're All Screwed: Steam Has a Mobile App Now [UPDATED]

I think it's kind of weird that they just now got around to having an app.

Buying games on mobiles was actually possible before, I've done it a couple of times with my iPhone. But this will definitely make it easier.

Once they make steam to work with my TV and a wireless 360 controller, all aspects of my life are screwed.

The beginning of the end of the world is here.

My wallet :(

Wow, this is magic, I was just trying to check steam today on my phone and thinking about how cumbersome it was.

I need this app now. I hate money.

UPDATE: I just realized I completely forgot to mention that the only people who can access this right now are part of a closed beta. From the press release:

Those who wish to join the beta just need to download the Steam app (free of charge) and log in to their Steam account via the mobile app to express interest in the beta. Gamers will be added to the Closed Beta as the service ramps up.

So, hey, do that.

There was a time when PC gamers were regrettably unable to just buy a new game on Valve Corporation'sSteam service unless they were actually in front of an actual computer. That time is now over.

Valve today announced the Steam mobile app for iOS and Android platforms, a free-to-download program designed to let the Steam power user check their friends list, chat with said friends, and yes, buy new games pretty much any time it tickles their fancy.

This means that never again shall you be forced to miss out on one of Steam's many, many, many sales because you happened to be walking around out in the larger world, and not handcuffed to your computer for the duration. In effect, downloading this app ensures that you will never, ever be able to escape the opportunity to buy games on Steam.

You didn't really like having money anyway, right?
