Does Microsoft not already have value? Why would Gaben be selling parts of his shoes to demons?

M$ have very deep pockets and cash talks as they say they think has a price.

Can you say the name of the company that owns this website again? I think I misheard you.

Would this be the end of pc gaming as we know it ?

Seems like it's pretty much already ended. I can't think of much that's been good about it lately.

No, none what so ever.

♥♥♥♥ can get a lot worse than Microsoft.

Gabe is Microsoft. He's a Microsoft guy.

I think I'll wait until I actually see it happen. I've heard assumptions like this far too many times to believe it before it happens.

One job I was working at they decided to sell one of their buildings (yeah, it's a very big company in the U.S.). I told them I'll believe when I see it. It took them 3+ years to get it sold. Yeah ... it did happen eventually but had I believed them at the beginning I likely would have found myself a new job in the meantime.

Fortunately I ended up moving to a new building to work there but the fact is if you believe it prematurely or immediately you are likely to be disappointed. Nothing is guaranteed in life but death and ignoramuses voting Liberal.

Because SteamOS is sooooo Windows friendly, right?

SteamOS? Nay. Deck Windows drivers? Ye.

let alone from Microsoft. However, it is known that many Valve employees do hold stock options, so if a massive offer is made, it would be put to a vote.

looks like the stock holders can out vote Gabe as he only owns 25% steam reading up on the rant,s me my self think its bad news if was to be and the end sales on games we all love and Xbox would be rammed down ur faces on steam front page if ever was a take over by evil M$.....

It's not like FGabe has at every turn done something to break the stranglehold windows has on PC gaming.

Gabe worked at MS and he describes the day he left MS as one of the happiest days of his life.

The don't have deep pockets. The pockets just have holes in them. MS has been bleeding money for a while now, hence why they have to be slipping advertising into their OS and gutting studios.

Valve is not a publicly traded company. There is no such thing as Valve stock.

And the tweet--sorry, X--that this rumor apparently comes from is apparently beneath even the journalistic standards of Twitter--sorry, X.
