According to Gabe Newell of Valve, the company is looking at the possibility of extending their Steam platform into iOS and Android platforms. A gaming service like Steam has done wonders on the PC and Mac; and with mobile gaming already having solid ground on the phones, PMPs and tablets, it seems only natural.
If Valve were to pursue Steam for mobile platforms, it could likely do so on Android. After all, Amazon just launched its own app store this week. iOS, on the other hand would be rather tough for Valve to venture into, as Apple won’t want to give up any of its app selling control, as well let anything threaten its Game Center service.
Besides this, according to a member of the Steam forums community that visited the Valve office, Steam will also be introducing a new video recorder feature which will let you easily record your gaming session without the needs for apps like Fraps. Prepare for lots of YouTube uploads.
