Steam is a pc interface, a program you can download. In sense, its a bit like an online store, like GAME foe instance, but instead of posting actual disks, steam lets you download games you buy, and registers them to your account you have. Quite convienent really, it also has deals and sales quite often too. Oh, and its usually one fo the good places to buy Indie titles such as Terraria.

Steam is a digital distribution, digital rights management, multiplayer and communications platform developed by Valve Corporation. It is used to distribute games and related media online, from small independent developers to larger software houses. Steam also has community features, automated game updates, and in-game voice and chat functionality.
Steam is a program that when you buy a game the old fashion way (from a store)that requires steam to play, you require an internet connection to play any of your games you finally relies that the disc you just bought from the store doesn't even the have game on it because you have to download the game FROM steam so all in all the only thing on the disc is STEAM you just paid $60 for steam........ *cough* Sorry I really don't like steam at all really there tell us when/where we can play our games I am a mobile gamer I play on my laptop, but since steam games require internet I miss out because I don't always have internet.
PS my laptop can play all top of the range games on maxed settings 2gb graphics, 8 gig ram, I'm laughing.
