Nobody who ever talks about Steam or PC states day one. Tomb Raider was released March 24, 2013. Less than two months after release you could get a Steam code from Green Man Gaming for $14.
While I didn't state day one, PC gamers could have preordered Tomb Raider at $31. DAY ONE. For just about half the cost the game retailed on consoles. How's that for day one, though?
The deals are rarely through Steam, but places like Green Man Gaming, Steam, etc, all give deals at launch and you're given a Steam key when the game launches on most of these sites, so you're still playing through Steam which most big publishers go through.
