Isn’t that misleading the consumer? They will think the games are Xbox games and not Steam games. They will come to resent the 2nd launcher, aka Steam, and Microsoft’s EEE will be complete.

Buying games from Steam is braindead simple, so not sure what you’re on about there. Can’t get much simpler than punch in billing and CC info once, add games to cart and checkout; subsequent purchases is even easier.

Feels like anyone that confused would have a really hard time buying Steam games in the first place…
