Those of you disappointed in the less-than-stellar performance ofInsecticideon the DS, but not inspired enough to put forth the momentous effort required to pick it up for the PC, take heart! Gamecock has announced an agreement with Valve Studios allowing them to launch their titles on Steam starting today.
The first titles available on Steam areStronghold Crusader Extreme,a title picked up by Gamecock from Firefly Studios, andInsecticide Part One. So if a noir-themed insect shooter isn’t quite your bag, you may find solace in the decimation of the Middle East and its inhabitants viaStronghold Crusader Extreme. Isn’t cultural exchange fun?
Part two ofInsecticide,Legendary, andVelvet Assassinwill be available on Steam later this year. While I’m hesitant to spendmoremoney onInsecticide,there’s just something about bug noir I really can’t resist, especially sans hard copy. Hit the jump for the full release.
