Hi,

I don't think so; and it's also not possible to buy a game with this tool.

http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-games/steamcmd.git/tree/debian/steamcmdcommands.txt
copied from here: https://github.com/dgibbs64/SteamCMD-Commands-List,
doesn't list any command to register / buy game.


Typically, users would buy the game on their Linux or even Windows desktop
with the full client and then download the game assets on an other device
(e.g. cheap ARM play-thing); that's where this tool is usefull.

Others can use it to manage servers, there's even anonymous login
support to download free-as-in-beer game servers.
