March 12, 2008 12:07 PM

Valve Software today announced that Atari is the latest publisher to put many of its games up for download on Steam, Valve's popular digital distribution service.

Beginning today, Atari-published titles such as Bohemia Interactive's ArmA: Combat Operations and Frontier's RollerCoaster Tycoon 3: Platinum will be available for purchase via the Steam store.

Valve also announced that CD Projekt's highly-rated RPG The Witcher will be added to the Atari catalog in the coming weeks, along with other Atari-published RPGs such as Obsidian Entertainment's Neverwinter Nights 2 and its expansion Neverwinter Nights 2: Mask of the Betrayer.

Finally a good game on steam (the Witcher). Will NVN 1 be included too? I prefer it over NWN 2.
Very big downloads too, btw. When do people turn off the pc these days?

      I doubt it, Quake 3 was released on Linux and it came out on Steam.

        yea but q3 was an id title, and they like and cater to linux. I dont think atari does that.

  I just bought the NWN diamond pack for $7, free shipping. I don't think steam could beat that deal.
