Actually, that's my fault. I recorded the first session using a microphone on the desk near Gabe. The second session, I was unable to get close to Gabe, so I had to record using a camera-mounted shotgun microphone 30 ft away, which picked up a lot more of the audience. Indeed, the reason you can hear Gabe so well is because the audience WAS respectful.
These guys are thinking way bigger picture than any of their competition. It's kind of astounding how far ahead they are of companies like EA or Microsoft. Like two orders of magnitude.
When you're a private corp and just care about pushing the medium forward this is natural. In all honesty Valve isn't some mega intelligent organization, they just want to keep evolving the industry.
love hearing his passing thoughts on disrupting the console market, and then realizing that today, ten years later, nintendo is a walled garden full of sinkholes, playstation has no games for real this time, and xbox doesnt even care if its an xbox or a pc anymore. meanwhile the steam deck is gaining more traction by the day.
Gabe is a genius, there's no two ways about it. He understands where business is going, and makes it happen. I remain perplexed, however, that Valve provides NO pressure on game publishers to adapt to this. Steam should require game licenses to be transferrable and saleable. They should get rid of the 'preloading' nonsense and release games when they are done, not when retailers can get them on shelves. Unless they do things like that, every publisher will just roll their own digital distro.
Applying pressure can have unforeseen consequences. There's no need to try and force things. It seems like Valve's/Gaben's strategy is just to get behind the open/voluntary ethos because they know it wins out eventually and accelerate the process. Forcing/constraining runs counter to the ethos.
I love Gabe Newell. That being said, did anyone else find it really funny/ironic that, after he talks about the possibility of Apple getting into the living room before PCs as a threat, he picks up an iPad at 7:21?
If Valve were the only ones doing digital distro, your argument would hold more weight. As it is, we can look at things like iTunes. Apple pushed the publishers. They refused to permit them things like bundling albums, charging more than 99 cents a track, etc. Some publishers resisted, but eventually caved. And it gave them a great market. As it is with Steam, might as well roll your own as Steam doesn't offer things publishers would have a hard time getting their own org to do.
this interview looks so uncomfortable and awkward. his chair has no table infront of it, so he's just standing there far away from everybody so they can see every body movement like his toes moving. and there's nothing but fucking coughing and sneezing. and the acoustics are impractically echoy. and the lighting is making sure we can all see his forehead and nothing else.
EA yes, Microsoft maybe. I mean, Microsoft loves to think long term too (if you ever see some of the presentations given by Microsoft employees) and in the hardware sector you can see Nvidia thinking 15-20 years in the future of hardware and giving talks on how to get around the limitation of Moore's Law (once transistors become the size of atoms) which won't happen for a while now.
So if a Steam user makes there own store, won't we have a bunch of real shitty looking pages (via Myspace) with tons of bling everywhere? TThere would need to be a standardization as to the design to these stores for sure.
If Valve attempts to push against publishers, the publishers will shove back. How is this a bad thing? Currently established publishers have 'Connections': Rich family and powerful legal associates whom currently own these publishers as investments in the 'video game industry'. If Valve (who has no Connections) tries to force things, then the Big Black Book will get pulled out, and suddenly Valve will be attacked in unorthodox fashions, since the normal ways won't work anyways on Valve.
Are you kidding me. Gabe said that it's unlikely that Bigfoot gets released this year. And Steambox is a name that a journalist has pulled out of his ass. Piston is the Mini PC from Xi3 and Bigfoot the one from Valve. And it wouldn't make sense, because the Mini-PCs are an alternative to the Gaming PC, so no, there won't be any new feature like that for HL3.
7:46 IT is now set in stone, when WoW dies SC3 is out. So Valve and Blizzard time is interchangeable. 1 carried the 2 over 6 equals 2034 is when support ends for WoW EG servers shut down.
Completely agree - If you're that sick, leave and let people actually record it, then watch it later. It sounded like there was someone eating right next to the cameraman in a lot of areas as well. Seriously? Get out, eat somewhere else.
Perhaps, but him buying an iPad isn't enough to change giant branching swathes of human behaviour which are making Apple rich. If he finds it a useful tool then he may as well use it. And really, if I can be so bold as to put words in Gabe's mouth, he's probably not so much "worried" as acknowledging that they have the influence and power to move things in a very different direction which he hasn't anticipated.
No third session? Go figure.
the next session will be in VR.

Eh you did your best.
he did his best for us

Still holds true today
doesn't take much to be more popular than any of those two examples considering the downright evil things they do to their customers

@@friendofp.24 I think this is accurate, their main advantage is really just they aren't corrupt and greedy like the others
I could just listen to Gabe talking all day long.
He did it again. In exactly the same anecdote he called Battlefury a "Blade fury".
Steam deck was a glint his eye back then. Said that they'll do it if no one else will and everyone else will follow and that's exactly what happened.

Should have had a mic on the speaker, not the audience.
He changed so much!
sorry about half life 3, i'm kinda busy building the FUTURE right now
He is so damn smart.
I love Gabe Newell. That being said, did anyone else find it really funny/ironic that, after he talks about the possibility of Apple getting into the living room before PCs as a threat, he picks up an iPad at 7:21?
Ah that makes sense, I listened to these on two separate occasions and I assumed they were the same camera source.
he did that in his Keynote on dice too, I think it is intentional; to show how popular apple is.

Loved the first question.
why is there always someone coughing in these sorts of videos?
GUYS!! From 11:00 is that the guy from Extra Credits James Portnow ?
Wow audio in this is so bad in comparison to the other one... what happened? :(
EA yes, Microsoft maybe. I mean, Microsoft loves to think long term too (if you ever see some of the presentations given by Microsoft employees) and in the hardware sector you can see Nvidia thinking 15-20 years in the future of hardware and giving talks on how to get around the limitation of Moore's Law (once transistors become the size of atoms) which won't happen for a while now.
No need for several questions, you only needed 1, where is Gordon Freeman?
Gabe Newell for president!
audio's a huge problem here ee

And you are an angel.
What type of tablet is Gabe using?

My theory is that HL3 is done, but he's waiting on Steam Box or some other technology to finish so he can implement the new feature into HL3.
the sound is horrible!

"You guys stop fucking coughing!"
really weird place to put a speaker
Look at him Mr. "I know everything about next HL but will not say about it for the time being"
goddamn this second group is so much louder
have some goddamn respect
Heads up, big fuckin noise at around 5:30.
Correct.
*COUGH*
*RUSTLE*
*ZIIIIIIIP*
*THUMP*
I agree with that statement.
Wait... Gabe has a moustache and a beard? :0
Where have I been all this time?! D:
because coughing is normal ?
Thank you Gabe Newman for the free video games on the internet.We very appreciate the video games for free on sale
He's changed a lot.
LEGEND
Never noticed until his arms were crossed, but that dude is kinda fuckin buff.

8 console peasants disliked this video!
He is like "Kill me now"
I think it's "we win."
all hail lord gaben
Some give king gave a proper chair
Why? Just see it as a market. If the store is shitty why buy from it?
and delay half life 3?
That chair is really being put through its paces.
9:47 will be the takeaway clip for the RUclipsrs.
Boo to whispering. :P
Yup, thats not an overreaction

And there you go, consoles are going the way of the Dodo. It always made me laugh when people insisted that the PC was dying.

You should clone yourself, or get inmortality Mr Newell
Blizzard took all the 3's.
That's why valve has none.
