Valve Says It Will Now Allow Everything on Steam Unless It's Illegal or "Straight-up Trolling"

Mixed feelings about this.
On the one hand... If you genuinely want something it will be available... But on the other they need to make up for that with better tools for the end user to filter out the rubbish.

Hopefully this means a return of EA games to Steam?

EA won't want to give Valve that 30%, and they seem happy letting their games die on their own client, and not being forced by the consumer to do anything about it.

I don't think the 30% cut was the issue though. The main reason was that Valve took issue with how DLC was being delivered.
