Valve on Being Acquired [Aug 05, 2008, 09:20 am ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
A Q&A with
Valve's Lombardi Gamasutra from yesterday (thanks Ant and
Play.tm) makes mention of Valve's
openness to being acquired, though it seems like this is more an answer to a
hypothetical question, rather than an indication that a deal for the developer
is in the works. On being acquired Lombardi says they are "happy to have that
conversation," but adds: "By the same token, the company's doing pretty well,
and we're really happy with what we're doing, So we'll see. I mean, anything is
possible." The remainder of that piece concentrates on heaping praise on
Electronic Arts. The
main body
of the Q&A is posted separately on Gamasutra, focusing on Valve's
acquisition of Turtle Rock Studios and progress on Left 4 Dead.
