Stop giving this fat fuck your money.

4.1 billion is nothing I make that in a day

>>387277774
Why? Steam is a good platform for buying games and Dota is probably the best game ever made.

>Newells net worth = $4.1b USD

FFX is more linear than FF XIII

>>387277774
Half life 3 never will come.

Bullshit

>Ho, the year is 2020, July 3rd
>As with every year E3 has come and gone with some hit and miss, TGS approaching fast, PAX has been disappointing, JumpFesta had nothing to show, as usual.
>Lo and behold, suddenly, every Steam user online receives a pop up message with a link to Steams twitch channel
>Founders of Steam standing in a line on a stage, nobody in the audience

>Left to right, each founder holds up a hinged sign, blank on the outside
>Is this a joke.jpg?
>For an hour, they stand motionless, holding these signs
>Lights dim, only furthers left founder is illuminated

>The outer hinged sign is dropped
>HOLY SHIT! IT SAYS TEAM FORTRESS 3
>Rest of the founders, one by one are illuminated
>Everyone drops their signs as the light hits them
>Each one announcing a continuation.

>Can they really be doing this?
>Of all of the times, why now?
>No way. It's happening.
>For years we waited.
>In order from left to right
>Reading the signs; they say Portal 3, Left For Dead 3, Counter Strike Galactic Offensive
>Millions of people tuning in to the stream
>Even Dota 3 gets an "In development," sign. Valve labels it "The Black Box"
>Deaths by the millions when there is no sign for Half Life Three

>>387277936
No, and hell no !

>>387277774
>Even Gabe got laid and had kids while you're still a virgin and dirt poor so can't raise kids if you wanted to

>>387277774
If he puts the surge on for 20 bucks ill be giving him some money. Fucks to be you faggot

>>387281047
Because they spend their entire time working on on some project,

>>387277774
Why?

He's the main reason why PC gaming exists in the first place. Based Gaben is PC MASTER RACE JESUS.

>>387281150
Why go to a expensive private university if you aren't gonna get a degree?

>>387281259
For connections and the opportunities that jump start you into your career without needing to finish your degree because it would be a waste of time

>>387281259

Because at expensive private universities you get something more valuable than education: connections. People go in, study for a few years, make connections with other powerful/rich people, then drop out to pursue their personal projects without having to spend the full amount on a 4-year degree.

>>387281259
Maybe he wanted to do both and just couldn't find time ? also just saying you went to harvard gets you some name.

>>387281259
yes. gabe should have stayed at microsoft where he would make 4billion dollars as a programmer.

>>387277825
Go back to /g/, Bill gates

>>387281237
DRM Satan more like. You can PC game without his shitty site. GoG is a good start.

Why not? Gabe Newell is a great guy that's always working in the gamers best interest!

>>387281459
Steam is DRM free. You just click on the game and it works.

>>387281459
Half of what GoG peddles is steam keys you dunce

>>387277774
My worst nightmare is thinking one day steam will be gone and i will lose all my games.

>>387281259
People drop out if they have something better to do. Gabe dropped out to start working at Microsoft when it was still relatively knew, he left Microsoft a millionaire and started Valve with the money. He would have stayed at Harvard otherwise.

>>387281425
No one is asking why he didn't stay at Microsoft, they're talking about why he didn't stay at university.

>>387277774
That fuck has more money than Donald Trump.

>>387277825
giv money

>"Exclusively for the Nokia NGage system!"
>Claps stop, some people laugh
>A gameplay video starts rolling in the background and booth babes start distributing HL3 cartridges to the still crowd
>Gaben pulls out a grapple gun and shoots upwards, where the helicopters still await
>The flying machine struggles and screeches under the weight, something blows up and it goes down in a fireball
