I don't get the whole "Steam needs competition" thing. Steam HAS competition. And, despite all of its shortcomings, it's owning all of them.

What Microsoft doing is pretty silly. Just like they wanted a piece of Apple's pie with their app store, now they just want to be Steam.

 Tue Mar 01 17:05:10 +0000 2016

Generally this trend is super weird. For years as a pc gamer, all I heard from console people are these things:

 Tue Mar 01 17:10:00 +0000 2016

Console advantages:
- works out of the box
- local multiplayer
- exclusives
