The recent settlement in the long-running legal spat between Valve and VU Games will see Valve's entire portfolio of boxed product being pulled from shelves in August - creating a potential loss of millions to UK retail alone.

I can only laugh at Valve now. I hope they choke to death on their Steaming pile of shit. But with that many idiot fanboys, that is most unlikely. Haha. |

Does this only affect stores in the UK, or is it world wide? |

More developers should take to the web and completly elimite the distributing costs, which accounts for a large percentage of profits. Publishers should still stick around, they are good marketting machines. Valve 1 - Corporations 0 |

I dont care downloading games. But Steam is just crap. If other idiot developers buy Steam as a platform or develop similar, then we will soon see zillons of background programs. For each game 1. YAY!!!!! |
