Valve Software has updated its Steam client software, making changes to the integrated Steam Store and available games list. Steam users will have the update applied automatically the next time they log into the service. Steam allows players to download full versions of games directly to their hard drive, and also serves as a multiplayer matching service and authentication utility once the games are downloaded.

On the official Steam Web site, Valve announced the changes as "part of a larger set of features (collectively known as Steam 3) which will be introduced over the course of the coming months."
