I lost respect for valve after they slam windows 8 as garbage without merit and then open a direct competitor to microsoft's app store.
- zevyoura 14y agoI sort of understand the first point, though I don't think they did it on a whim without any "merit." I don't get your second point though, why do you lose respect for them for competing with a product MS hasn't even released? Edit: I saw your post in the other thread where you say more clearly that you think the two are related. I'm still not sure why this is an evil thing to do, or why you're convinced the slamming was 'without merit' but it makes more sense now.
- DigitalJack 14y agoSteam pre-dates Microsoft's app store, Apple's app store by a large margin. It's been around for quite a while. Since 2002 I believe. You make it sound as if they just opened it.
- seabee 14y agoEvery other app store has games, too - with the reasonable assumption that Windows' app store would too, Microsoft established themselves as a competitor to Steam a year ago.
