Forums - Microsoft - How come Microsoft doesn't buy valve?

Perhaps Valve don't want to be bought. I always find it odd how people talk about MS buying things as if whatever they're buying doesn't have a choice.



 

The PS5 Exists.

4 billion plus future revenue. Not to mention worth of the steam platform with all its install base and products available for purchase. Just building the infrastructure has cost valve a lot of money through the years. And you can be damn sure they consider their hard work which is now paying off to be worth a lot in the long haul.



With Gabes Cholesterol, he won't be in charge forever.

What's it been 12 years and a value of 4BN? That's not breaking the bank for MS to own the PC market main outlet.

When you have limitless funds and eternity to act, what's the hurry?



Gabe is happy where he is now.



Why doesn't Microsoft buy the world too? it would be amazing

Valve would say no.



MS should buy some vulva, instead, geeks need more sex.

Shouldn't they buy Konami first? Seems like it's a better value right now.



 

Really not sure I see any point of Consol over PC's since Kinect, Wii and other alternative ways to play have been abandoned.
