I'm not sure you need a reason to receive games for free.

The Steam client was released for Mac yesterday so I guess it's a promotion for that.
Cheers for the heads up Isi, free games are good.

Nice catch, thanks for the heads up!
edit add: I also noticed that Torchlight is less than 10 dollars for the next few days. If anyone is/was a fan of Diablo, this is a clone (done right), and for good reason. Look at the developer name list and you may noticed it's comprised of many former Blizzard North team members. It's a hell of a game for a 14 man team; I had more fun with it than some other flagship games I've seen released in the past year.

Grabbed it, alas the level editor isn't included (ah well, it was free...). Now trying to work out which is the cheapest way to get the source SDK...

Nice find Isi. Cheers. And Strac, yep, caught that Torchlight deal as well and picked it up, easily worth a tenner.

Wondering why Portal is free? Well Aperture Science has released a video explaining why!

This burns my soul. I just got Portal a while back when it was on sale for $5, but I still haven't had the chance to get to it yet.
