And yet the highest amount of people I've ever seen on any single game is just a little over 100k if not close to 200k when Skyrim launched. I'm assuming the majority just use it to chat. Steam is great, it just feels as though there is no PC community though even with 40million members. The online community of anything but AAA mainstream games die in obscurity within weeks if not days. I received Crysis 2, LotR:WitN, MoH, Fear 3 among others all on the first day of launch, some as gifts so don't judge. All dead within weeks. Worst offenders of this were Brink and Homefront, though they weren't exactly great games.

What I do like about steam though, it seems to be a great avenue for indie developers to garner popularity. It might just be more effective at doing so than XBLA.
