Valve on Piracy and Episode 3

[Sep 15, 2010, 9:49 pm ET] - Share - Viewing Comments

We ask Gabe Newell about piracy, DRM and Episode Three on PC Gamer interviews the Valve boss along with Erik Johnson and Doug Lombardi. They discuss the upsides of the Steam service in smoothing out customer relations issues and preventing piracy to the extent that they don't give it much thought. They also ask about Half-Life 2: Episode 3, the long-lost final chapter in the Half-Life 2 series. Gabe responds with silence when asked about it twice, and when pressed says: "I understand, and I have to not say anything."
