Be honest, this is FUD. My own experience and every report I have read is that Windows 8 is faster than Windows 7 hands down. And how is Steam not a closed system? In the talk he complains it took 6 months to get an Apple Store update through. How long does it take to make changes to games on Steam? Can I put a game on Steam today? No? How long does it take?
This isn't about Open vs Closed. This is about Gabe In Control vs Gabe Not In Control.
- jlgreco 13y agoSteam being a closed system is not a problem for Valve... why/how could it be?
- forgottenpass 13y agoAnd how is Steam not a closed system? It is, but currently relies on an specific level of openness in a platform to operate. Microsoft and Apple are vertical integrators. They don't. So when the parent said "it seems that Microsoft is fast headed to a closed platform" they were referring to specific aspect(s) of the openness of the platform (Windows). Not saying that Steam was a free-for-all.
