Afterall, 1/3 of a shit ton of money is better than 1/3 of nothing for Sony, while Valve would dramatically increase their marketshare. And Sony might still pursue its own online store simultaneously, so it can hedge its bets. I can't see Sony surrendering that much control, and I can't see what they would gain out of it. A little bit of name recognition? Okay, but what about the marketing Steam (and the PC) get in return? Wouldn't that be concerning? It's just a store, it's not like a store would somehow make porting PC titles easier, so I don't see what it would add. |
