As soon as gaben can count to 3.

I'd say Steam machines since the library just grows.


But where are the exclusives? And I'm not talking about the hundreds of greenlight games that hardly anyone buys or enjoys, but real AAA games? I'm not saying their aren't some, but not enough to drive a console. You can't win a console war with only multiplatforms for your AAA.

"Real AA games"?, that's pushing it a bit with the Scotsman fallacy don't you think?, what you think is AAA won't always be to another in that sense. PC has a plaethora of exclusives both AAA and non AAA. I'm not in that exact mood to keep listing games you are clearly going to want me to name and then dismiss (you are giving me those vibes since you are already under the asumption that PC doesn't have anythign exclusive elt alone AAA), but here is a reddit with a list collected from over the years:

Step right up come on in, feel the buzz in your veins, I'm like an chemical electrical right into your brain and I'm the one who killed the Radio, soon you'll all see

So pay up motherfuckers you belong to "V"

Around the Network

No one.

It would be incredibly risky and probably unrewarding to do it. The ammount of investment and development resources necessary to aquire from scratch make it a huge investment with no garantee of sucess.

Only a company going in a craze would do that. So, i dont see ayone besides Amazon and Google even thinking about trying. But, i dont think either one has a chance unless someone else exits the market. That was what benefited Microsoft aswell. The exit of SEGA from the market.
Theres hardly room for 2 manufacturers and we have 3 already.

I did notice the sugestion of Valve. I guess it would be the closest because they already got the infrastructure and some development power. But, i still don't see why they should risk all that.
