Steam surpasses 65 million users
Steam reached its current milestone as Valve prepares to launch Steam Machines, an initiative that aims to bring PC gaming to the living room with dedicated hardware, a platform-specific operating system, and a gaming-optimized controller. Currently, Steam hosts over 3,000 downloadable games from a broad spectrum of publishers and independent developers.
"The main goal of Steam has always been to increase the quality of the user's experience by reducing the distance between content creators and their audience," said Valve president Gabe Newell. "As the platform grows, our job is to adapt to the changing needs of both the development and user communities. In the coming year, we plan to make perhaps our most significant collaborations with both communities through the Steam Dev Days and the Steam Machines beta."

SliceFXKatsumiThat's SOLD. To register to stream is free. Very uncomparable...FaithInOmNi LOL xbox got this much day one xbox 360 came out. :)
This is pretty much impossible. Over the 4+ years that the console has been released it has only sold little under 80 million units. Please do some research before you comment something like this
Xbox Live is also a free to register platform. Despite not being a good one the console thing was just being used as an example.

MrSick As much players that Steam has, I think that most of the accounts that they have are inactive. I myself have about 5 accounts that I do not use.I also have about 3 accounts, 2 of which I have never used. They should release the number of active accounts, under 10 million I'm guessing. Maybe under 5...
