Valve has announed its intentions to have its leading digital games platform, Steam, make the leap from PC monitors to TV screens.
“Our partners and customers have asked us to make Steam available in more places,” said Valve marketing VP Doug Lombardi. “With the introduction of Steam on the Mac, and soon in Portal 2 on the PS3, we’ve done just that.”
“With big picture mode, gaming opportunities for Steam partners and customers become possible via PCs and Macs on any TV or computer display in the house.”
“Our players are continually teaching us what works and what doesn’t. Much of this feedback can be generalized to other titles on Steam, so we’re looking forward to sharing what we’ve learned with partners at GDC. We’re also interested in seeing partners get up and running with their own in-game economies, so they can collect game-specific data to inform their design decisions.”
We are expecting more details on Valve’s next move from GDC this week.
