They were probably worried he would make the second act of Far Cry 2 again.Clint is working on Left 4 Dead 3?
Come on valve. Why don't you give this guy his whole game?
No way, man. I think viewing SteamOS in the same vein as Microsoft and Sony's consoles, as in competition, is really missing the point of what their OS is about, especially in these early days. L4D3 and HL3 will end up on next generation consoles, I'd bet on it.

So what is their OS about?

An alternative to windows/consoles. It's always good to have more choices.So what is their OS about?

I just hope I can approach a long tunnel/corridor and not have a loading bar pop up on the screen
Branching out their service, which is Steam, onto as many platforms as possible. It's a long term thing. The benefit of people using Steam isn't just to play Valve exclusives, it's to access a library of games from all kinds of developers.
By last few I meant last 2 and yes I know Dota 2 has been their thing recently. Portal 1 and 2, and L4D1 and 2 were at least 3 years ago.

I agree, but the simple truth is this: Steam will never be allowed on home consoles, so if Valve wants Steam to expand in the living room it has only one avenue: SteamOS. Having Valve games available on other living room platforms lessens the chance of consumers buying a Steam Machine, strengthens the position of Valve's living room competitors and denies SteamOs of any sort of mass market hook.
Simply put, Valve has tons of reasons to keep its games exclusive and only one reason not to: money. Since it has quite enough of that as it is, I am certain that Valve will sacrifice part of its game sales in order to give SteamOS a fighting chance in the living room.
"slobbering shit-wizards"Speaking of HL3 is this article for reals?
Cuz if true, kudos to gabe
I wonder how they will F2P left 4 dead 3?
Just add crates and customization?

It's possible Valve could get away with doing both.
Did he design hl1 or hl2 (or both)?Added note about Steve Bond in the OP.
Damn excited that Kelly Bailey is back- the music from Half Life 2 and the episodes were really god-tier. Mike Morasky working alongside should make some good stuff!
It's possible, but is it logical? Think about it. Valve wants to expand Steam to the living room, where it faces competition from three big, experienced companies with significant resources, huge mindshare and a sizeable portfolio of exclusive titles we usually call "system sellers". And you guys are saying that Valve will squander its best chance at stealing away customers from them by releasing its games on its competitors' platforms. If that is the case, I only have one question: who in their right mind would buy a Steambox over a PS4 or an Xbox One?

Incidentally, Global Offensive would have been a nice subtitle for another DoD game.
They're busy working on Day of Defeat: Global Offensive.

This thread made me wonder why I never played that Minerva mod. Installing it as of now

DOD GO sounds a preteen valley girl kicking her father out of her room.Incidentally, Global Offensive would have been a nice subtitle for another DoD game.
