A handful of games and updates have hit Steam over the past couple of days. Thanks in part to our being a bit lazy here at CS-Nation, we have not covered most of these releases. With that, enjoy a quick hit of Steam flavored Newsbits.


• It looks as though The Elder Scrolls 3, Elder Scrolls 4, and Call of Cthuhlu have finally (http://csnation.totalgamingnetwork.com/forums/showthread.php?t=179815) hit Steam! For the time being, all three are 20% off of their regular prices! TES 3: Morrowind (http://store.steampowered.com/app/22320/) and Call of Cthulhu (http://store.steampowered.com/app/22340/) are each just $11.19 while TES 4: Oblivion (http://store.steampowered.com/app/22330/) is just $16.79. Both Elder Scrolls titles are the GOTY editions and come packed with bonus content.

• Episode 3 in Wallace and Grommit's Grand Aventures is now available (http://store.steampowered.com/app/31120/). "Muzzled" is the third part of four adventure titles staring the dynamic duo. All four titles can be purchased as a bundle for $34.99.

• Riddick fans should be delighted to see that The Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena (http://store.steampowered.com/app/9860/) is now available through Steam. Assault does come complete with the Escape from Butcher Bay campaign and essentially offers two full titles for the price of one. Use stealth and a variety of combat moves as you make your way through the game's environments.

• Sitting at just $29.99 the Ghostbusters have heard the call (http://store.steampowered.com/app/9870/) and have arrived on Steam. The game does not include the multiplayer component found on the console versions, but the single player game is all there. Join the crew from the movies as you bust ghosts with the best of them.

• Four new features were added to the Steam community yesterday. Users can now leave comments on group announcements, comment on group events, have events that now persist, users can view and comment on past events, and there were miscellaneous layout and design updates.

• America's Army 3 (http://store.steampowered.com/app/13140/) has been released through Steam. The free-to-play FPS delivers a fairly realistic experience that lets players utilize modern weapons and technology in this multiplayer focused title.

• Updates were released for Merchants of Brooklyn (http://store.steampowered.com/news/2585/) and RailWorks (http://store.steampowered.com/news/2592/) over the past two days. Owners of these titles will automatically receive these updates.

Now you guys can see what happens when we slack off for a few days here. Our slacking means you guys get Newsbits and for that we apologize.
