A U.S. district judge has decided that an antitrust lawsuit against Valve over how it operates and uses the Steam platform can move forward.

Well, Valve absolutely has a majorly dominating presence in the PC game market. Not the first time I've heard that they have over reaching rules designed to keep games from selling on other platforms too much. If there is any truth to that at all, which I strongly suspect there is, Valve should definitely face consequences.

what makes me laugh at this, if you look up wolffire. first off half of the games theyve put out ive rarely or never heard the names of mentioned. secondly they own humble bundle, its a spinoff company from them run under another name.

i smell anger that they cant make a decent game.
