Alternate headline: Gabe Newell says something quote-worthy to Develop that doesn’t involve Half-Life.
According to Newell, the studio sees the PC “as the center of innovation of everything that’s going on, whether it’s micro-transactions, MMOs, free-to-play, or something like CityVille which — after its first month — has 84 million people playing.”
“To us,” the co-founder of Valve continues, “this is just an indication of why open platforms are where innovations are going to occur.” Excluding (arguably) the more recent console-oriented motion technology, I think he’s absolutely correct. Right now, the big one we’re seeing carry over is digital distribution.
