Steam reportedly made over $11 billion in the first half of 2026

A new report from Alinea Analytics says Steam made an estimated $11.1 billion from game sales during the first six months of 2026.
That's 14.5% more than the same period in 2025 and 8% more than the second half of 2025, which included the holiday season.

The report says the growth was mainly driven by:

>More players joining Steam from China.
>Older games continuing to sell very well.
>More people playing games on PC.

Steam is also estimated to have around 200 million monthly active users, making it the biggest PC gaming platform by far.

Palworld 1.0 is out. I started my playthrough and was super excited, only for the game to completely mess up my save after just a few minutes. A warning for everyone

Wealth tax explained:

1. Laura loves to cook, she risks all her life savings and opens a small restaurant: Laura‘s Kitchen

2. Laura works really hard, evenings, weekends, no vacations

3. The local community loves Laura‘s Kitchen, it’s a success, the restaurant gets larger, Laura hires 30 people from the neighborhood

4. Laura makes 1,5 Million € in profit, she pays 40% in income tax: 600,000€

5. The left „tax the rich“ party wins the elections, and introduces a wealth tax

6. Laura‘s Kitchen gets valued by the tax authorities at 25 Million €. Laura must pay 5% wealth tax: 1,25 Million €

7. The income tax of 600,000€ plus 1,25 Million € in wealth tax is more than the 1,5 Million € Laura makes

8. Laura cannot afford to pay more taxes than she makes, she closes Laura’s Kitchen

9. Laura loses her life savings despite years of hard work, 30 people lose their jobs, the state receives zero taxes

10. The local community goes to McDonalds again

11. The local left “tax the rich“ party members blame „capitalism“ for that on social media

12. Everyone gets poorer due to higher unemployment and lower tax revenues

Why is this so difficult for the left to understand?

BREAKING:

The European Parliament just passed Chat Control 1.0

A proposal to stop the new law, which will allow big tech companies to voluntarily scan all private messages, needed an absolute majority of 361 voted but received only 314 votes.

As it was the last day before summer recess, many MEPs had returned to their home countries and didn’t take part in the surprise vote. Chat Control 2.0 is still being prepared. That law will make it mandatory to scan people’s private messages.

Capitalism is when a central planner seizes wealth from private individuals and redistributes it to produce the means for the central planner to go blow up people across the world.

@Critical_Scribe I liked Grounded, and will definitely be picking up Grounded 2, I am surprised it took over 30 years to have a game loosely based on "Honey I Shrunk the Kids!".

1 day left until Palworld 1.0.

I’ve been getting a ton of requests to “post the 27 pages” of the patch notes early so, I shall oblige.

Here you go!

@burnthalies I read one remark, that the first episode is basically a scene to scene adaptation of the manga panels basically.

@SSGSentinel I am wondering why Sony does not use their Decima Engine much more in the same way to be honest, I know they let Kojima use it for Death Stranding (2), but other than that it's just the Horizon games.
