No it's not and before you go about stating this, how about you give us some numbers instead of making things up ?

Because all your numbers are far off...

Google makes 500k /employee...

At 250 employee for Valves all we can deduce is that Valve made more than 125 million profit last year.

it surelly didn't make the billions you are claiming or the company would not be valued around 2-4 billion$. That is straight financial fact, no company is valued at twice it's profit....

 

Steam is  at best the third behind the AppStore and XBoxLive...( Steam revenue was shy of 1 billion in 2010, XboxLive was slightly over 1 billion$..)

 

 

You article is not journalism, just you making up facts as you write them. Nowhere in the Forbes interview does it say Steam made 2-4 billions. What the article says is that Forbes estimates the value of the company to be in the 2-4 billions range, that is totally different......

I didn't say Steam made $2-$4 billion. I said Steam made $1-$2 billion, and Valve is estimated to be worth $2-$4 billion, which Forbes stated themselves. You have no idea how companies are valued, clearly. EA is valued at $7 billion, and they haven't made a penny in 5 years. Don't participate in discussions you are completely ignorant of, please. It hurts legitimate debate.
