This comes not long after EA said they would get paid ads in games..

We REALLY need to either cryo or clone Gabe as not JUST this but also now on Steam it'll show when an early access game was LAST updated.

Gabe

I have a bet going on how long it takes Steam to turn into absolute dogshit after he kicks the bucket. My money is on "between 1 and 2 years".

Most other CEOs would put ads everywhere.

If the only options are getting punched in the shoulder or the face, I'll choose the shoulder.
