Rumor: Bethesda to purchase Valve?

Bethesda? Valve? Is there something going on between you two? Because we read this editorial by Eurogamer, and well, just look:

"However, it's also worth watching closely what happens to Steam in the coming months. Unconfirmed industry scuttlebutt suggests that Zenimax - the parent company of Bethesda, which made headlines back in June when it acquired legendary PC studio id Software - is still on the acquisition trail, and has been making eyes at Half-Life creators Valve across the bar," said the article.

If true, it's certainly out of left field, but then, so was Zenimax's annexation of id Software. Guess we'll see what's up in the coming months.

For now, though, speculate away!
