Steam is often considered as the best digital platform for all developers (whether they are triple-A studios or indie developers). And from the looks of it, Valve’s digital service is kicking some serious ass. According to Steamspy’s stats, around 60 million copies of games were sold in August.

Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2.
