Gabe Newel, was a Microsoft's employer isn't ?, i think that would be better if Microsoft, hired him and made Steam, together with Gabe, but they lost their biggest chance, Steam, became something so Huge on PC, that no other Triple A Digital distribution, will be more popular, on Steam, you can get Dota, Counter Strike, Left 4 Dead, Portal, Half-life, and the better deals of the Internet, how someone can compete agaist it ?, Microsoft, cannot make Minecraft, exclusive for Windows Store, because they paid 2.5 Billions for it and need any money, to get the Money back, if Microsoft, was a Windows Store only tittle, then maybe they would have some chance.

I don't see that "dream" ever coming true considering how Gabe left to differences with MS and then years later still talking of his differences with MS and not agreeing with them, last thing we'll ever see IS Gabe joyfully shaking hands and getting cosy with MS. Steam is never likely to be onwed under and only by MS at the end of the day.

MS could start with trying to make PC type studios once more instead of killing them off like they had done some years back if they want to compete rather than simply buying everything out or buying already existing games.

Gabe have much more money now than Microsoft, is willing to give for Gaming, Gabe, have 2+ Billions on Revenue of Steam, and Already made Multiple Billions with Steam, have games that already sold Dozens of Millions of Units, and i think that he made atleast a Dozen of Billion with the Games Gabe, have.

Microsoft's Maximum attempt was Minecraft, 2.5 Billions of US$, and still don't get the Money back, so they don't have the Reasons to Burn money on a Division, that still does not paid the last Crazy Aquisition.
