- EA Sports’ FIFA Manager 2009
Coming Soon:
- Mirror’s Edge

Sister site Big Download contacted EA to find out if older PC games would become available, but the publisher wouldn’t comment. Also, in case you’re wondering, EA games on Steam apparently don’t install or use third-party DRM set-ups. According to Valve “the only DRM it uses is Steam itself.”
