Microsoft picked the wrong battle to begin with. Lack of forthsight led them into a battle with Sony. They've been beaten there and now they realise they wasted so many years and so much money fighting the wrong guy. I bet Valve can't believe their luck.

Valve is actually now making the same mistakes like MS and focuses too much on steam-machine instead securing their turf. If MS really goes into PC again valve is going to lose a lot of marketshare, they have alot more money than valve

Except Steam machines also use Steam and the games on Steam are all available for Steam-machine. It's literally the same platform.

Xbox and PC have been completely seperate platforms since the first Xbox console.

Plus, MS' extra money hasn't really helped them compete in the PC space and even on consoles, they've yet to "win" a gen even though they have far more money than either Sony and Nintendo.

Its not the same platform one uses linux the other uses windows. Most games are not avaible on steamOS yet. Xbox and pc are seperated but most share now the same games as both are popular in gaming, steamOS isnt and probably never will be. Its easy for MS to implemend crossbuy for both pc and xbox, and they are the one who own DX and windows. There are a lot of things who speak for MS over steam.
