Today’s steam deals have been revealed, with big discounts on eight more games including City of Heroes, Half-Life, Company of Heroes, and more.

Developer support is going to be a big factor in the success or failure of the new motion peripherals like Kinect and Move. Developers might be a little wary of hardware with a $100+ buy-in, however.

Nintendo had quite a showing for themselves at E3. The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword, Metroid: Other M, GoldenEye, and Donkey Kong Country Returns were on display, among others.

Lazard Capital Markets analyst Colin Sebastian has said that he expects the 3DS to retail for around $249-$299. He also adds that the unit is likely to launch this year in Japan, with a March 2011 date for the US.

Still in the race for release, Sony Liverpool’s WipEout HD has been given a price tasty enough to tempt any PlayStation 3 owner.
