When do you think Steam will hit 10 million users? That'd be another milestone.

You mean concurrent users? Steam has way more than 10 million users.

If it expands at this rate, I'd say a few more years. New consoles might slow things down a bit, as I think the length of this generation has helped "core" PC gaming grow alongside the explosion in "casual" PC gaming.

Why haven't they released DOTA 2 yet? Everyone, their mother, and the last ten generations of their family line have beta access now.

This is proof that Steam is a meta-game. Sure there are games you can play on steam but the real game is looking that Steam sales, trying to figure out if you want to join in a 4-pack, trying to figure if you should pick up the daily sale or wait for the Christmas sale, trying to figure out if it is worth $1.74 for the deluxe version, etc.

Don't believe so. You can download the launcher directly from SOE's site if you want to avoid Steam.

CS players have no interest in moving on (not unexpected) and.. it looks like CS:S players are fine with their game as well :O (that was a bit unexpected for me).

Do we have a total number of users in the game total? I'd love to know what percent choose to launch through steam. I'm on my phone so forgive me if it's easy to find somewhere.

Not yet AFAIK. Probably because it launched right before the holiday. Maybe they'll start talking number this week when everyone is back in the office.

1.6. Those numbers are pretty impressive considering the games competitive scene died off in the US.
