  • Scott Miller: Steam should not be a part of valve

    but the fact still remains that Valve is a competitor, and if push ever comes to shove is valve going to use steam as whats best for valve, or whats best for online distribution and the welfare of all the companies relying on steam? When a Valve game gets twice the marketing on steam than your game no matter how much you are willing to pay or whatnot, that tends to be a big what-if for business people.

    "I’d love to see Steam spin off as their own company. That would be a smart move. That removes the conflict of interest issue and it would give Steam focus as a separate company. Since they’re buried in Valve, if Valve doesn’t do well for a game or two, Steam will get cut before their internal game development. They have to consider Steam secondary. I don’t know why they hang on to Steam as an internal thing. They’d probably rule the game industry if they did. A truly independent company is going to come along, and I know of a couple of start-ups. I think one of these companies will emerge as the product leader and they should be able to take Steam’s spot."

    Guy's got a point, how independent is Valve being when episode two comes out, and everything gets pushed off the front page. I could see this becoming a much larger issue as steam picks up steam (lol) I was actually pretty surprised when they put SiN episodes up there.

    will do, I'll probably take some screenshots too. I'm tempted to lug my 30 incher home just to take some 2560x1600 maxed settings screenshots

    well I finally got the machine delivered. The box it came in was huge and I thought that was wierd since I didn't really bundle anything with it but when I opended the box and saw haw huge the tower is I was blown away. I can literally put my keyboard ontop of the case and comfortably type on it like it's a desk. It's incredibly big and heavy. So far I have only had a chance to run the prey and quake 4 demos on it but it handled those with all settings maxed at 1600x1200 like a champ with no noticeable slowdown. I can't wait to get all my game on there and really put it through it's paces.

    New original co-op survival horro game created by turtle rock. It all started many years ago when me and a co-worker at troika were having a blast setting up condition zero bots in overwhelming numbers with knives. My friend and roomate was working at turtle rock and introduced the idea and they took it a long ways further from there.

    it looks decent with the composite cables on my lcd. It hasn't detracted from my gaming experience at all so far. I think it has a lot to do with how well your tv scales video. Been looking all over for component cables with no luck.

    I know some of you have devbump's rss feed on their google homepage, could anyone tell me if it's up to date with whats on the site? It's been stuck on the six indie mistakes article for about a week for me and I want to know if it's that way for everyone.
