Gamecock and Valve have shaken hands, crossed pinkies and signed an agreement to launch Gamecock titles on Steam, a key digital distribution platform for the delivery of PC games.

The first Gamecock titles available on Steam will be Firefly Studios' Stronghold Crusader Extreme and Insecticide Part 1. Available today for just $29.99, Stronghold Crusader Extreme picks up right where the critically acclaimed RTS Stronghold Crusader left off. Set during the first, second and third crusades, Stronghold Crusader Extreme delivers the ultimate in medieval warfare.

Insecticide Part 1 follows the exploits of Detective Chrys Liszt as she untangles a web of corruption on the streets of Troi. This film noir storyline plays out through hard-boiled, fast-shooting action scenes and clever adventuring in a world where bugs have evolved as the planet's dominant race.

Additional Gamecock titles that will be made available via Steam later this year include, Insecticide Parts 2, Velvet Assassin, and Legendary.

Dead Space Review
Dead Space is fairly derivative -- but it's still worth playing.

High-definition audio output not doing it for you? Can’t afford the luxury of a gigantic screen? In that case, the Gyroxus chair may be another option for becoming completely immersed in your favorite games.
Owing to the lack of an overarching storyline, Mount & Blade is a game that’s difficult to get into at first. If you can get past the growing pains, however, it offers a compelling, dynamic world that you are free to explore at your leisure and a combat model that is both frenetic and addicting.
Set to release in Early December for PS3, 360 and PC
Set to arrive sometime in 2009

Tagged as a “Cyberpunk FPS”, this futuristic shooter explores a dark, corporate Earth that exists quite literally in the shadow of a dying sun.
