If for some reason say Valve goes out of business, does that mean all my Steam games are no longer available? |

Seems to have more to do about the Steam Box. Wonder if they are going to sit on Steam for awhile and not do large development work on Steam in the short term.

Yes. Everyone should start downloading all their games before Valve closes shop without a warning. |

Yes. Everyone should start downloading all their games before Valve closes shop without a warning. Wow!
That might make my ISP re-consider my business, and considering I'm with Teksavvy, that's a lot of data.

I am in no way surprised by this and think it is about time they started firing some people.
I have wondered for quite some time now how some of the developers were getting away with their repeated blunders and now it looks like it's time to face up to them. 
I mean really, how can you put games on the market with no alt+tab function (plus other blunders to go with it), add it in later, and have problems keeping it working during the games entire life?

I think all they're doing is sitting around playing DOTA2 while the public screams at them to finally make Half Life 2 Ep 3. Plus, DOTA2 is still in beta. Shouldn't they officially release that game at some point?

Such is the game dev business, sink or swim, Gaben has said before they are like that, why would it change now? Or maybe they just sucked, spent all day playing games instead of making a game system like, kinda like what happened with john romero(allegedly) at id. |

I don't think half life 3 was EVER really gonna be released and I got proof, just give me a moment to find it, its a link that shows that half life 2 (episode 3) was canceled and then it mentions half life 3 and thats basically where it ends.. How sad though really, I still wanna see the rest of Half life 2 but then again thats all part of the game? It makes you wonder what happen next(: IMO thats the way to go "to keep you wondering of what happen"

Steambox might be just about to be released/announced? The got rid of hardware devs if I'm not mistaken. |
