[QUOTE=SweetSwifter;39438485]I'd rather not see this happen. Valve has an excellent record on quality-control, and I wouldn't want to see Steam go fully public-controlled.[/QUOTE]

they have the best quality control of any app store

I agree, and with such amazing games like War Z and Revelations 2012 on the service they also have the highest quality games on the market as well.

[QUOTE=SteveUK;39440561]Have you seen some of the games on Steam and also the ones that never made it on?[/QUOTE]

Steam is the best appstore there has ever been. Granted that's not saying much because The Apple Appstore is number 2 :v: but that is still better than what they have to make it

I couldn't have put it any better.
Steam is more akin to Apple's iOS App store than the shitstain Play Store where absolutely any trash goes.

Am I the only one who noticed the woman introducing Gabe? It must have been freezing in there because holy shit..

I thought he just said that the community can make better content for their games (TF2, Dota2) than valve can, not that they're leaving steam entirely.

No, he talked about that as well. But he also talked about the idea of Steam being an open web API where everyone couldp ut up their games and software.

That's more of an opinion.
Quality wise it looks pretty decent and it seems to be the "Party Games" kind of genre, so if your a fan of Mario Party and the like, looks like it'd be something for you.

[QUOTE=Jedi_Rayne;39439289]I think you are misinterpreting what he is trying to say.
He is saying he dislikes Steam, but the only reason he uses it is some games force him to activate and play through Steam.[/QUOTE]

Yeah, I worded it pretty badly.

And also, I don't have anything against the idea of steam, but I'd rather have it be like Xfire, so you can use it when you want.

Steam is the best you will ever get for appstores, your average AppStore is like Android'sGoogle Play which is a shit stain on the face of the internet
