ErikJ Q&A

[CSN NewsBot]

Last night in #Steam (GamesNET), Erik Johnson of VALVe Software answered some questions in an informal Q&A session. I've complied the highlights, which can be located at the Steam Forums. I promise there's more information than you want to know.

Pressure: Erik - Do you get something special if you pre-ordered Half-Life 2?

ErikJ: Pressure - JohnC will come to your house and hug you.

Also, look forward to another Steam update later today.

erik seems like a real nice guy, hard to immagine people at his equal in other companies just chatting and having fun, and answering so many questions.



bummer that there wont be new HL2 footage, but a direct feed will be splendid indeed

After reading that I nearly saw an insight into some thoughtful questions. Then it decended into purile irc style banter, (as previously mentioned).



It is hardly surprising that as the questio0ns became more and more ridiculous hew made his excuses and lef5t. He seems like a reasonable guy, so why bombard him with silly qs?



Good job Ritchey interesting and INformative.



Go and read this folks!
