Source Memes

And I'm here for it! Microsoft is actually, definitevely trying to monopolize the market by buying all its competitors. Valve just makes such good products that nobody can compare. Since they're not buying off competitors, their business will actually have the opportunity to wane if their products ever become subpar. Steam has ridiculous discounts, they let people use their Source engine for pretty much whatever because they never forgot that iD let them modify the iDtech engine to make Half-Life, they're pushing Linux gaming lightyears ahead, and now they have an affordable, portable gaming PC that is not dependent on any of Microsoft's garbage OS.

"We think there is a fundamental misconception about piracy. Piracy is almost always a service problem and not a pricing problem. If a pirate offers a product anywhere in the world, 24 x 7, purchasable from the convenience of your personal computer, and the legal provider says the product is region-locked, will come to your country 3 months after the US release, and can only be purchased at a brick and mortar store, then the pirate’s service is more valuable.” ~ Gabe Newell
