The Steam Review

Two major developments in the Triton/Prey saga tonight–and you thought it was over.

Triton’s demise has been a particularly untimely one. Its plug was unexpectedly pulled during Steam’s strongest single week of growth–perhaps not in coincidence. Its closure has been every digital distribution paranoiac’s nightmare come true, a case study for the worst-case scenario in fact, and as such is of great interest to anyone with a stake or interest in any connected digital distribution scheme.

Prey has begun Pre-loading on Triton. How has the service progressed in its final few months?

DiStream have provided a partial but official list of Triton titles.

Triton, DiStream’s competing distribution service and ‘Your ticket to the fast lane’, has seen twelve new games added to its official website.

Attentive reader Sarkie has spotted the new brand name and website for DiStream’s Steam competitor, formerly known as Game xStream, suggesting that it is finally nearing launch.
