Will Microsoft buy Steam?

Hello Microsoft! I've known since last month that the company would be interested in buying Valve, which owns Steam, and this generated a lot of controversy, is this information true? Look what a news site says, "A new rumor that Microsoft would be about to buy Valve, the company responsible for Steam, has left the gaming universe uneasy." Microsoft would be willing to pay the equivalent of US$16 billion to buy Valve. Honestly, Microsoft, I think this is absurd and lacks respect for Valve, which owns Steam. I think you shouldn't make this purchase and leave this acquisition alone, because everyone should stay in their own square, then all you have to do is buy Sony, which owns PlayStation, seriously, you should forget about it altogether.

It's a rumor. Until they make any announcement, no one here would know what they're planning on doing.

Not if you buy it through Steam. Only if you buy it through Microsoft.

Did you buy it from Steam or Microsoft?

The Microsoft store is another DRM service like steam but you can't use a steam activation code on the microsoft store - you will have to buy it digitally on the microsoft store to login to the windows live platform.

You have a little bit of conflicting information there. Did you buy it through Microsoft or on Steam? If it was through Steam it would be for the PC and not for the console.
