A new lawsuit was filed earlier this month in the UK that alleges Valve, owner of Steam, has been overcharging 14 million PC gamers and abusing its dominant position in the UK.

      It’s a UK law firm filing the class action suit. They’re also suing Sony for £5 billion for the same thing. It’s just lawyers looking for money.

        You fail to explain how stupid the Sony case is. The case is about playstation having a monopoly… on the distribution of playstation games…

        Can anyone spare £1 trillion in these trying times? I gotta buy some cheese and crackers and a box of wine.
