How am I supposed to know? I'm not Gabe Newell. All I know is, plenty of other publishers have gotten away with free content.

Regarding the rest of the topic, that is merely Gabe not understanding the difference between PCs and consoles. There is a pathway on consoles because there are console makers. If the PC had a dictator the same way as consoles do, it would be no different for it.

That comment he made regarding releasing four updates for a PC game in one day is exactly why Valve and other developers need to be kept in check on their console offerings.

 

 Can you even think of a possible benefit? I find it much easier to believe that Sony and Microsoft are more likely to give certain companies a break in the interest of promoting and mainaining a good business relationship. On the flip side I can see them not doing the same favor for a company notorious for bad mouthing consoles.

So you're basically saying it's true and it's Gabe's fault for always mouthing off? Ok, I can see that. Not that this turn of events is helping out any if true.
