    Considering what China is doing, the US needs hackers in its employ to protect us. Simple as that.

    I tend to believe him. I think that most people who want to work on games won't be happy working at Valve. Valve's main business is Steam. It still produces an occasional game, but nothing high concept or that an artist would feel a real satisfaction to work on.
