I don't think that's Valve's doing. That's publishers offering their product at lower prices in order to broaden their market. The fact that this in turn creates an expectation of future lowered…

Uh… If I'd want to have "fun", I'd attend a kids' birthday party. Or join the lads for a game and a couple beers. Maybe see a comedy. But likely not play PC games.
