I could have swore I read this same "news" two weeks ago, and in it it had some responses from Valve people saying that they did have some type of conference with Nexon, not knowing what it was about. When they heard that they wanted to buy Valve, Valve basically laughed at Nexon and left. They said that they felt the company was worth at least 3x the offer, and that they weren't even remotely considering selling anyway.
If Nexon has so much money to throw around, why don't they...I don't know...IMPROVE EVERYTHING ABOUT THEMSELVES INTERNALLY? Instead of throwing idiotic offers around, fix your god-dammn company.
Edit: Looking for said article, I ran across a bunch of "EA tries to buy Valve for over 1 billion." Does Nexon even think? At least offer more money. But, first...you know...get on that "fixing yourself" thing. It kind of should be Priority 1.

It was my understanding that EA was trying to get input from Nexon about how to market a soccer game in Korea, unless that was something else.

usually I like to lurk in the shadows but let me just say this: all Nexon is doing is trying to boost their stock so they can get a more favorable rating.
Nexon do not posses the war chest to even cover 40% of Steams's values and NCsoft is trying to stay afloat.
Nuff said, back to lurking.

Nope, can't deal with even just the idea of this happening, regardless of it having no chance of happening.
I want Nexon and Valve to have as little as possible to do with eachother.

Get on that, Nexon, before you start eyeing other companies.

Doubtful. But it would have been fun to see how Nexon would meddle with DotA 2 if they did buy Valve.

No. Don't even joke about that.
Please.
It would turn pay2win and IceFrog would have no say in balance anymore and we all know how balanced games like Maplestory are.
