In today's contest we're giving away a log. A piece of wood. And also Log Jammers for Steam. Few websites have the guts to give away real, tangible prizes. Fewer still have the fortitude to go out of their way to host contests featuring exc...

Steam is back with another game-backlog-clearing exercise for 2020. I barely made a dent last year, but I enjoyed having a nudge to play – or at least think about playing – some of my library's deep cuts. This time, Steam's Spri...
