Steam : l'entreprise gaming qui génère plus d'argent par salarié que Google… grâce à une idée toute simple.Aujourd'hui, Steam écrase le marché du jeu PC. Mais derrière cette plateforme culte se cache l'histoire d'un homme : Gabe Newell. Ancien de Microsoft, devenu gourou du dématérialisé, Gabe a fait de Steam une révolution… mais aussi une machine à fric, à controverse, et à surconsommation. De la création de Valve à l'ère des soldes Steam, en passant par l'échec de Steam Greenlight, l'arrivée d'Epic Games ou l'essor du Steam Deck, on revient sur une idée qui a changé notre façon de jouer… et d'acheter.Retrouvez tous les Hall of Game sur Youtube ou sur JV !

Estamos a escasos días para conocer los anuncios que habrá en los The Game Awards de este año y nosotros queremos hacer nuestros propios premios, más allá de la web. Daniel nos ha abandonado otra vez, pero no os preocupéis porque estará la próxima semana para hablar -mal- de Geoff Keighley. Pese a todo, han pasado cosas y se han rumoreado calamidades como la posible alianza entre Apple y Sony. Estaría enfocado en un campo más tecnológico y alejado de los videojuegos, pero todo lo que sea la unión de dos compañías tan peligrosas.... cuidado. South of Midnight podría lanzarse prontito, o eso nos ha comentado un insider que conocemos de otras filtraciones. No sabemos si será cierto, pero el videojuego de Compulsion Games ilusiona bastante y puede ser un soplo de aire fresco para el catálogo del ecosistema de Xbox. Y por otro lado, lo nuevo de Josef Fares también estaría al caer y según los rumores, promete ser un auténtico melocotonazo del año. Pero para melocotonazo, lo de Valve: si la compañía de Gabe Newell quiere dar el pasito y ser un competidor directo en los salones con PlayStation ¿Mola, no? Y, no hay termómetro pero inauguramos los MOTY, los conocidos Mojón of the Year que ha organizado Carlos en 5 minutejos. Ya sabéis, repasito del año de algunos casos polémicos, protagonizados por parte de la industria del videojuego.

E nesse episódio falaremos sobre um dos pilares desta indústria vital. Gabe Newell sem dúvidas tem um papel fundamental em como encaramos os jogos hoje - principalmente no PC -. Falaremos de sua carreira, participação e paixão pelos jogos! .

Movies are a powerful tool. They have the ability to not just change people, but to change the world. The film industry proclaims and celebrates this power every year during Oscar season, up and down the red carpet.  So I've always thought it strange when some of these same people minimize the impact that exposure to profanity, sex, violence, and other unsavoryness has on the public at large. “It's just entertainment,” we're told. “Movies are just a mirror of society,” they say.  Whatever happened to all that talk about changing the world? You can't have your popcorn and eat it too, Hollywood.   Join us this week on A Time to Sharpen as we dig into how Whetstone harnesses the power of film with Gabe Newell, current headmaster and former clerk at Blockbuster Video. (Remember those days.)  It's hard to be in the world, but not of the world…but films provide us all with an excellent opportunity to do so.  --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/time-to-sharpen/support

Welcome to episode 250 Skazz shares his thoughts on why he preferred the racing elements in the original Gran Turismo for the PS1, highlighting what set it apart from other racing games of its time. We also dive into the unique mechanics of the game, while exploring other iconic racing titles, like Colin McRae Rally. We reflect on the challenges of preserving classic games and the misconceptions about the permanence of digital content, emphasising how, contrary to belief, the internet can forget. Our discussion covers the risks to digital preservation, including the Internet Archive lawsuit and the downfall of Lik-Sang imports. Next, we catch up with Rams' adventures in Empyrion - Galactic Survival. He recounts his first rage quit, the frustration that led him to use console commands, and his progress in designing his own spaceships—from small vessels to the beginnings of a capital ship. Along the way, Rams faces asteroid mining, aggressive drones, and the engine's limitations. We also chat about Ram's impressive maths skills the future of AI and job automation, some strangely flat trees, Ram's explosive potential, and why open mouths are essential for YouTube thumbnails, what would happen if they remade Back to the Future and ponder how to keep Gabe Newell alive forever.

My guest today is the American writer and game designer Chet Faliszek. In the nineties he and his friend Erik Wolpaw founded the website Old Man Murray. The satirical online publication poked fun at video gaming's sacred cows and established a tone that is still prevalent across the internet today. After catching the attention of Half-Life creator Gabe Newell, the pair joined the video game developer Valve. There my guest contributed to the writing on Half Life 2 Episodes 1 and 2, co-wrote Portal, then led development of Left 4 Dead and its sequel. In 2017 he left Valve, eventually founding his own studio Stray Bombay. The company's first game, The Anacrusis, is a brightly coloured and joke-filled cooperative first-person shooter set aboard a stranded spaceship.

The hosts are all over Meta's release of the new MetaAI with Llama 3, now integrated across all of Meta's brands, and totally free, bringing an exceptional multimodal (does images with short animation) to nearly 4 B users. That's half the planet. Adobe is upgrading its Premiere editing suite, adding Sora for B roll, in-painting (for removing or adding images from shots), and shot extension, which adds frames to the beginning and end of shots. No guest this week, so we filled the last fifteen minutes of a relatively short show talking about Gabe Newell's BCI startup, Starfish, which is just out of stealth, and the shutdown of the enterprise VR collaboration platform Glue.

En el episodio de hoy de "10 Minutos con Sami", exploramos tres noticias fascinantes que abarcan desde los descubrimientos científicos hasta los avances tecnológicos. Comenzamos rindiendo homenaje a Peter Higgs, el físico ganador del Premio Nobel que propuso la existencia del bosón de Higgs, una partícula fundamental en la física de partículas. Su legado ha dejado una huella indeleble en nuestra comprensión del universo. Luego, nos adentramos en el emocionante mundo de las interfaces cerebro-computadora con Gabe Newell, cofundador de Valve, quien ha lanzado una startup llamada Starfish Neuroscience. Esta iniciativa busca integrar las experiencias de juego directamente con el cerebro humano, lo que podría revolucionar la forma en que interactuamos con los entornos digitales. Por último, analizamos los importantes acuerdos de entrenamiento de IA que Shutterstock ha firmado con gigantes tecnológicos como OpenAI, Meta, Google, Amazon y Apple, y cómo esto podría impulsar el desarrollo de la inteligencia artificial en diversos campos.

You read that correctly, the state of the gaming world is unreal, as in Unreal Engine. As the GDC is fully underway, there was still a lot of news to get through. From Epic games having their state of Unreal, to Saber Interactive breaking free from Embracers embrace, to the failure of the PSVR 2, and Star Wars Battlefront Classic Collection taking a nosedive. Also Popeye, The Cat in the Hat, and The Never Ending Story are all making some kind of comeback, The Acolyte gets its first trailer, and Dune Pt. 2 continues to sizzle as the box office. That and a whole lot more.

We should all have courage like David Zaslav (；￣Д￣）. Lord Gaben has been required to return to the US for court, more layoffs hit the game development world, and CD Projekt Red is really gearing up for the Witcher 4. Meanwhile The Hunger Games prequel is just wrapping up the box office, Taika wants to make sure his Star Wars will be good, and Chris Evans is totally unware of the return of Cap. Also I give my top 10 90s Drama films.

Aston Martin's decision to reignite the Valkyrie Le Mans Hypercar project for the World Endurance Championship and IMSA SportsCar Championship from 2025 has sent waves through the sportscar racing community. The iconic 1959 Le Mans victor is making a grand re-entrance to La Sarthe, yearning for that much-deserved title at the 24 Hours. As we delve into the episode, we journey back to Aston Martin's roots in sportscar racing during its golden era. We reminisce about the stellar performance of 1959 and victory with the DBR1. However success has been elusive since then. Martyn Lee is joined by Gary Watkins and Kevin Turner to unpick the reasoning behind Aston Martin's grand return to Le Mans and sportscar, their renewed aspirations, strategic outlook, and the envisioned path ahead. This episode sheds light on how the combined vision of Lawrence Stroll, Gabe Newell, and Heart of Racing is realigning Aston Martin's trajectory, ensuring it remains rooted in its legacy while embracing the future.

Non solo Valve è riuscita a sopravvivere al suo primo gioco, ma con esso ha anche cambiato profondamente l'industria del videogame. Anche per questo, Gabe Newell si pone obiettivi molto alti per il diretto seguito, e i lavori sembrano partire nel migliore dei modi. L'ambizione, tuttavia, presenta un conto molto salato, e l'assoluta libertà che si respira negli uffici di Valve si rivela per certi versi un'arma a doppio taglio. Se vi siete mai chiesti perché il fantomatico Half Life 3 sia sparito dai radar, per riemergere solo raramente, la storia dello sviluppo di Half Life 2 e dei suoi episodi successivi contiene molte delle risposte che cercate.

La missione di ogni nuova startup di sviluppo videogame è tanto chiara quanto difficile: sopravvivere al suo primo gioco. Con questo obiettivo, a metà anni '90 due Microsoft Millionaires lasciano l'azienda che li ha resi ricchi con il vertiginoso aumento di valore delle azioni e mettono insieme una piccola squadra di principianti con uno scopo preciso. Partire dalle solide basi tecniche di Quake e offrire un'esperienza che abbracci la narrativa come componente fondamentale dell'esperienza. Questo, ovviamente, è solo l'inizio della storia dello sviluppo di Half Life. Gabe Newell e Mike Harrington hanno davanti una strada lunga e tortuosa, e già convincere un publisher della bontà dei loro intenti sarà tutt'altro che facile. Tutto questo, e molto altro, nella storia di quello che da umilissime origini è diventato uno dei videogame più influenti di sempre nell'evoluzione del videogame moderno.

My guest today is an American writer for some of the funniest video games yet made. In the nineties he and a friend founded the website Old Man Murray, a satirical online publication that poked fun at video gaming's sacred cows, and established a tone still prevalent across the internet today. The site was read by Gabe Newell, creator of Half-Life, who later hired both writers. At Valve my guest collaborated on a new game in which a vindictive artificial intelligence chastises players as they solve a series of puzzle rooms using a gun that fires warp points. Portal became a smash hit; Stephen Merchant, co-creator of The Office, voiced a character in the sequel. Today my guest continues to work as a semi-retired contractor for Valve. “In defense of games, I want to point out that the writing in plays, including everything by August Strindberg and The Lion King, is 100% pure crap,” he once joked. “So, we're doing better than they are, even though they have the benefit of mostly not being about space marines.” Welcome, Erik Wolpaw.Clips under discussion:Junkit by Tommy Tallarico.EverQuest by Jay Barbeau.GTA3 theme Craig Conner.The Beginning by Shunsuke Kida.Slay the Spire by Clark Aboud.All other music by Simon Parkin.

Helllloooo Lamer Gamers this is LamerTravis and Rowdy5000 for the Lamer Gamers Podcast! (Portage Park links below!)In today's episode we're going to break down the latest gaming news from the last couple weeks from Nintendo, Playstation, and Xbox. Our Nintendo section will have a fun new sponsor from HGTV's upcoming totally real and definitely not fake show Animal Crossing Happy Home Hunter! We've also heard rumblings about a new acquisition blob monster species in town by the name of Sony! Find out who they ate later in the show, you might be surprised. Rowdy : OOOH OOOH! We should give them a clue like if Sony were pushed off a bridge and survived because someone tied a BUNGIE cord around their ankle when they weren't looking…Travis : Shhhh, don't give them good clues. We have to make sure they listen past the first part of the show. It's like clickbait or a Kotaku headline but we'll actually tell them later instead of scamming them.Rowdy : Oh yeah, good point. Travis : Towards the end of the news roundup we're going to make a cup of angry coffee to get ready for discussing the microtransaction hellscape we are now turning this world in to. If you haven't heard about the latest Diablo Immortals and BMW news then buckle up sunshine because it's going to be a bumpy, extremely overpriced ride!  Rowdy : BMW, I thought we were a gaming podcast? Travis : Yeah well I thought cars couldn't have Microtransactions or subscriptions for software based services but I was wrong!Rowdy : After we get all angsty I will be declaring that I am no longer a console peasant and have joined the glorious PC Royalty because I bought a Steam Deck! I'll give my impressions of the Switch-like Pc known as the Gabe Newell box that our Lord and Savior Gabe Newell has delivered to us. ALL BLESS THE STEAM DECK! Travis : Does everyone have to recite their love for the Steam Deck and pledge to Gabe Newell of Steam when they buy one of these? Rowdy: Yes. Yes they do….peasant. Travis : You are starting to sound like Lord Kromdore The God King of Gaming PCs. I don't like it…We'll end the show with a special BONUS POINTS where we asked a bunch of Lamers on Twitter and Discord : “The Real World is Now A Game – What DLC or Microtransactions does or should it have?”All this and more on the Lamer Gamers PodcastTravis : Rowdy, cue the music!    Our sponsor this week (ok…so we normally do joke commercials but we do have a real one this week…) is the Portage Park Development Project - a thriving community in the Upland metaverse.If you are from Chicago, Portage Park might sound familiar. That's because the Upland metaverse is based on real world cities and properties, and Portage Park is an actual neighbourhood in Chicago.The metaverse version of Portage Park is the most developed neighbourhood in Upland with over 700 supportive members and property owners, enjoying competitions, community initiatives and local shops with monthly town hall meetings to connect with fellow Uplanders.And now Racing is coming to Upland!

A new Fallout game has long been the request of the Dukes, especially Matty. Finally, we have a nugget of information that suggests this one day might finally become a reality. If reports are to be believed then the talks have begun in earnest at Microsoft to make this a reality. What does this mean for the likes of Fallout 76, potential remasters, and the setting of the next entry? Matty has been patient, so there is much for us to discuss. Beyond that, the release of the Steam Deck has been a mostly positive reception and we have always fantasized about a local version for PC Game Pass. Gabe Newell has put the ball in Microsoft's court, so it's time for us to decide what fate this service shall receive. Otherwise, more reports of a large incoming acquisition, PlatinumGames thirst, and Elden Ring adoration give us more to sink into. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
