Geoff Keighley hosts conference call regarding TGAs with fans and industry insiders
- Thread starter wwm0nkey
- Start date
Something I do find interesting is Mr. Newell's supposed participation in this call.
It just doesn't seem like something he or Valve would have any kind of participation in to me.
edit: Although I guess Valve worked with Mr. Keighley on the Summer Games Fest thing already this year.

Isn't HL VR up for GOTY? Might also be because Geoff S rank clout, so can get Gabe and Phil on the same call.
That's what they want you to think, but then at the Game Awards Phil announces Half Life 3 developed by the Initiative
Everything was "damn this would be sick" until the last line, haha.
I sure hope that never happens. MS are cool and all, and I know from a consumer standpoint the way Valve works can be often frustrating (the stuff you want to see supported never getting supported quite as much as you want - which seems to be your complaint as well), but their methods are unique and have really pushed the industry forward in ways I don't think anyone else is quite up to the table to replicate, and I'd hate to lose those over something as small as just video games when it comes to the bigger picture.
Valve single handed changed the PC market in non-Asian territories for the better, turning it from what was becoming a joke market rife with a ridiculous amount of piracy into one that companies are actually excited to jump into while still providing immensely consumer friendly features. Valve is THE main company making Linux a better gaming product and doing a great job at it. Valve is really the main company supporting non-Facebook VR technologies and non-Facebook VR companies like HTC, and without them helping out Facebook would have a bigger part in VR than they already do.
Wouldn't be Facepunch, Garry shut the forums down earlier in the year
Gamepass on steam will be huuuuge for us ultrawide users since the Xbox PC app won't allow changing the files of the games to make it ultrawide.
Phil was the guest for the Zoom call and Gabe called in from New Zealand for the final hour to surprise us all.
He saw a tweet and reiterated what it said, you might as well have quoted your own OP.
So people expect Game Pass on Steam with only first party titles?
They got many of the details of Half-Life Alyx, and a lot they got wrong well before it was announced were actual ideas that were part of it at one point.
VNN doesn't have a 100% track record, but the fact they got so much of Half-Life Alyx right was pretty telling.
I thought they just got all that from twitter? I must be remembering incorrectly.
OP
OP
The guy literally had test versions of the game on his PC and showed them off post release, regularly has interviews with internal employees etc.
Most of any of the info anyone ever has is via data mining, of which there's none right now so valve news is slow.
If anyone is legit, it's him.
Why is this thread still open? Geoff has been doing these group calls for weeks. Reggie was on one the other day.
It's all about the game awards, there is nothing else to it at all.
My response is above. Before half life alyx they always seemed to be guessing.
It's just the wild and random nature or data mining basically.
What one person sees, anyone can see so there's not exactly a single source for anything unless you see something before someone else does.
Valve is super tight in terms of actual leaks outside of the data mining itself so yeah, pretty much how you find out about anything from them.
It wouldn't be a terrible idea since EA Play is already on Steam.
I was just thinking the other day about how crazy a Valve acquisition by MS would be and now I'm reading this. LOL
It's probably not a buyout, but still funny.
Gamepass on Steam is my guess, which would be amazing. The only reason I don't have a continual sub on Gamepass is because MS's store is not the best AND I love to mod my games.
I don't know how that would work with their 3rd party licenses though. As great as the MS titles on Gamepass are, I wouldn't get a sub if it was just their IP.
Man, TECHNICALLY, that could happen since Valve is a private company.
But I don't even want to imagine how much they would cost.
It may be hyperbolic, but they might be worth more than Bethesda. Steam is a money printer.
Again, probably not happening in a million years, but still fun to think about in a terrifying way.

Access to the Windows Store via a tab in Steam Big Picture Mode, bringing us one step closer to a unified console-like UI in the PC space.
