Everyone's familiar with Maxis, the studio behind most Sim titles such as SimCity or The Sims. Well, as of today, after 28 years on the gaming market, Maxis is no more.

Valve's broken its silence to announce a bevy of new features, projects, and hardware, some we've already known about, and others... not so much. I hope you're wearing your brown pants.

And that's not all. They also unveiled Steam Link, a device that allows Steam users to stream content from their PC (or Steam Machine, if you're into that sort of thing) on the same network, and will be released this Fall. Valve is also releasing the Steam Controller in the Fall as well. Each item will be priced at $49.99. They're also presenting their VR headsets, with developer versions supposed to be out by the Spring. Finally, they've announced Lighthouse, a "room tracking system" that can be integrated with televisions, phones, headsets, etc. Valve plans to make this technology free for all developers interested.

Sadly, Half Life 3 was still not confirmed. 8 more years!

EDIT: Release date for consoles have been confirmed as September 1st. PC release date is confirmed for September 15th
