Dalo Harkin Posted September 18, 2008 Posted September 18, 2008 The web is rampant with rumors that Google is on the verge of announcing the acquisition of game maker Valve. The Enquirer reported the story earlier today, citing nothing more than “well placed sources.” But while getting into the video game business seems like an odd decision for the search giant, the site speculates the reason Google would be most interested in the company is its Steam distribution platform. Valve has dismissed the reports, calling them a ''complete fabrication'' but the company has been known to be open to discussion about potential sale.
