The day has finally come for the release of Valve’s Steam platform on Apple Macs. To celebrate the launch of Steam for Mac, Valve has made the original Portal completely free until the 24th of May as well. If you didn’t already know, Steam is also completely free and can be easily downloaded from their site, linked below. More and …

Granted the words are possibly inappropriate for young children to be singing but since the tune is so peaceful I am not sure most …

If Monday has been getting you down then I have an awesome video to cheer you up.
