Gabe Newell believes that PC gaming isn't dead–it's changing.
In an interview with Develop Magazine, Newell, co-founder of Valve, said that the PC gaming industry is evolving from a "ship-it-and-be-done" model [boxed retail] to an "entertainment service" platform.
"I mean, go ask [Blizzard president] Rob Pardo if PC gaming is dead – if he can take the time out from making money hats, I'm sure he'll give you a really eloquent explanation of why probably the most valuable entertainment franchise of the moment is PC-specific," Newell said.
