Take the test and grab the game for free

Following a survey,which shows that more Steam gamers play on NVIDIA GeForce hardware than any other graphics platform,Valve and NVIDIA has entered into an agreement to collaborate on development and distribution of its games.

To kick off the agreement, all NVIDIA gamers may receive a free copy of Portal: First Slice, a special version of the award-winning new game from Valve, by visiting www.steamgames.com/nvidia1 and "Taking the Test." Steam will then auto-detect the presence of NVIDIA hardware and make Portal: First Slice available immediately, free of charge. To make it easy for all NVIDIA customers to redeem this offer, a link to the Steam offer will also be included in all NVIDIA drivers.
"More Steam gamers, including myself, play on NVIDIA hardware than any other GPU," said Doug Lombardi, vice president of marketing at Valve. "That's a testament to the company's long history of innovation and quality. By working together with NVIDIA to expand our development, distribution, and marketing efforts, we're increasing our ability to serve the millions of NVIDIA customers logging onto Steam and help us prepare for our next generation of content."

I always thought they hung around with the ATi crowd. Oh well, I can't complain, I got a few games free with my 2900XT.

Wonder how much nVidia paid them
