Because of steam sales, my account went from the "Vavle Pack" when the first episode one came out. Then nothing, then [url]http://www.steamcalculator.com/id/dekoy_the_original[/url]

More game developers need to model their businesses like Valve.

That's hard for other businesses to do, because they have to pander to shareholders.
Valve is a privately traded company, meaning they can do whatever the fuck they want, without shareholders crying about their stock prices.

If they had shareholders the stocks would go thru the fucking roof cause of the 7th year of 100% growth.

Followed by it crashing when the shareholders demand unpopular changes that decrease the experience and value when they try to milk everything out of consumers.
So, uhm, it says 40 million accounts. Is that active accounts? 1 year ago or so they said they had 35 million ACTIVE accounts, would be weird if it's only 40 million total accounts now.
Just release [B]it[/B] already Valve.
Valve+Steam is going to become a super power soon.
I'd like them to do a proper small skin for Steam, in addition to the Big Picture UI mode. Would be neat for laptops with a limited screen resolution, where the interface always takes half of your screen or more.

This doesn't mean what you wanted to say when you wrote it.
And here I am waiting for 3rd day answer from steam to get access to my account so I can pay games that I have paid for.. Their support seems to be slow as hell at the moment. :/
