Walk away from? Steam isn’t on my Xbox now. Or do they mean releasing Xbox published games on Steam? Don’t care about that as long as they require a PC.

"I do know like Microsoft has some plans with regards to how they show up on PC," Corden said during the latest episode of the Xbox Two Podcast. "And I don’t know what that pertains to with regards to Steam, but the plans that I know about, and I’m being very careful here, kind of suggest it gives them a window to potentially pull out of Steam. So, I would not be shocked if eventually we do see a universe where Microsoft quits Steam."

Yea its about Xbox games on steam.

So basically Games for Windows Live 2.0 - I'm sure that will go great. /s

So that’s weird, Xbox striking at why people use Windows over Linux or Macs. Though Linux has Proton. Mac users, I figure, just have an Xbox or PlayStation. Nobody buys a Mac for gaming.

They mean publishing Xbox games on steam, and they don't usually require a PC, I can play Campaign Evolved on my Steam Deck
