Die Kollegen von
computergames.ro haben ein Interview mit Valve´s Mike Dunkle, seines Zeichens "Director of Café Operations", geführt. Hier schonmal ein paar interessante Schnipsel:
Zitat: ComputerGames: After the release of Aftermath, will Valve continue to release add-ons for HL2? Any chance of seeing more open-ended scenarios, with multiple paths to the same objective?
Mike Dunkle: Yes, we will continue to develop games for the Half Life 2 franchise. As for the open-ended scenarios, we are trying to tell a story as best we can, so we need to have the players focused as much as possible to the task at hand. However, I think Sin Episodes will have more options in this regard for the player, as well as environment interactivity.

Nach Aftermath gibt es natürlich - oh Wunder - weitere Mission-Disks.
Zitat: ComputerGames: How will Steam evolve in the future and what can players expect from it?
Mike Dunkle: Well, Steam is definitely going to continue to evolve, with new features being added to keep up with the player’s needs and demands. Right now we’re working on new billing systems, like PayPal or debit cards, which are very popular around the world. Also, there will be a new “Friends” system, so yes, players can expect a lot of nice things from Steam in the future.

Also Paypal für Kreditkarten-Verweigerer und das Friends-Instant-Messaging-System ist weiter in der Mache.
