Steam as we know it on consoles seems unlikely, but I imagine a few tech pieces might make the leap. I'm very much starting to think P2P is never coming.

I'm not sure that Valve would want to offer them, if the fees end up being more than their share of the price!

One thing I constantly get emails about is the lack of options for people without credit cards/paypal. Hopefully the new payment methods will allow them to get GMod10. I think something ideal for Steam would be buying shit with mobile phones. This is probably a lot more of a sensible option now a lot of the prices are under £10. Holy shit! An update!
