I still don’t know it. I don’t have a huge amount of confidence in “a prominent figure in the Counter-Strike community” as a source for Valve’s internal finances.
IIRC Valve issues shares to its employees, but the details aren’t public. There are a bunch of different corporate ownership schemes out there that it could potentially be.
Huh, I didn’t know that. (emphasis mine)

Shares aren’t necessarily voting shares, but I don’t know how that works and if it’s even relevant for the private Valve corporation.
So maybe Gabe Newell does have full control over Valve, or he might not.
It’s definitely interesting that it’s only 25%.
