The PC market share for game sales is expanding, prompting Microsoft to consider integrating PC storefronts into the next Xbox. Valve may enter the console market, leveraging its expertise in digital distribution. A potential Valve console could be inspired by the Steam Deck, offering standardized hardware and compatibility with various games. This console could consolidate PC, PlayStation, and Xbox games, providing access to indie titles and making PC gaming more accessible for casual gamers. While Valve's success with Steam raises questions about the necessity of a dedicated console, the company has shown interest in exploring new hardware opportunities, as evidenced by its successful VR headset and handheld gaming device.

Steam has recently updated its content guidelines, leading to the delisting of hundreds of extreme adult games, particularly those involving sensitive themes like incest and sexual violence. The updated guidelines specify 15 unacceptable characteristics for published content, including "sexually explicit images of real people" and certain adult-only content that may violate payment processor rules. Notable titles removed include "Incest Tales: Webcam Daughter" and "Reincarnation in another world going to rape All NPCs VR." The developer of "Daddy Daughter Incest," EroticGamesClub, still has other adult games available, raising questions about the criteria for delisting. The majority of these adult games are simplistic visual novels, often criticized for low quality. Valve states it is open to hosting adult content if appropriately labeled and age-gated, but the ambiguity in the new rules has left developers uncertain about compliance.

Ghost Town, developed by Fireproof Games, is set to launch for PC VR and Quest 3. Players take on the role of Edith Penrose, investigating her brother's disappearance in a ghost-hunting detective agency in London. The game features intricate environmental and mechanical puzzles, and has received positive reviews on Quest. The graphics are detailed on both platforms, with the Quest 3 version having slightly less polished lighting and environmental effects compared to the PC version. Textures are high quality on both systems, but the PC version has enhanced sharpness and more objects rendered in scenes. Performance on Quest 3 is generally outstanding with minimal lag, and the game provides an immersive experience on both platforms. The upcoming Steam release will enhance fidelity for PC VR players.
