everyone knows this but, here at Joystiq we're not just a gaming blog - bringing you all the
latest, breaking news on stuff like Mario boxer shorts - we're also a world-class PC gaming
consultancy. Yup. PC gaming publishers come to us and say, "Joystiq, how do we - the titans of
video game publishing - compete in the piracy-laden graveyard of PC gaming?" And we respond simply;
"Copy Valve."br /br /We don't mean make a product that's sort of like Steam, or is influenced by
Steam - we mean emmake Steam/em! Change one letter. Stream? Steem? Whatever, just make it. Bonus
points if you change your company's name to Valfe or perhaps Varing;lve. While most PC gaming
companies - except a href="http://www.joystiq.com/tag/stardock/"a few notable exceptions/a -
continue to flail in the face of technological progress (read: the internet), Valve continues
making a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2008/01/01/game-of-the-year-portal/"amazing/a a
href="http://www.joystiq.com/tag/Left-4-Dead/"games/a, releasing an a
href="http://www.joystiq.com/tag/Steam/"incredible platform/a, and bundling many of their
technologies a href="http://www.joystiq.com/tag/Steamworks/"together/a for competing developers ...
for free.br /br /So when Valve chieftain Gabe Newell addresses the kingdom, it's customary for us
to take notes (remember: we'll sell these notes later). In response to a customer email inquiring
as to the extent of Valve's relationship with EA (and, by proxy, validating EA's continued use of
onerous DRM on PC games), Newell responded, "As far as DRM goes, most DRM strategies are just
dumb." Incredible, no? There's no equivocation; no hesitation. DRM=dumb. Ah, but notice that
qualifier: "most." Of course, Valve's very own Steam client is rife with DRM which Newell puts this
way: "The goal should be to create greater value for customers through service value (make it easy
for me to play my games whenever and wherever I want to)." When's the last time you heard someone
complain about Steam's DRM? And when was the last time you pirated a game over Steam? Bill's in the
mail, folks. br /br /[Via a
