Then we\u2019ll move on to a new set of questions,\u201d Newell said.

Just to be clear \u2014 internally we have a bunch of different names and they change over time.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He then confirmed that the company is actively <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gameinformer.com\/b\/news\/archive\/2012\/12\/14\/a-short-history-of-valve-39-s-gabe-newell.aspx\">working on several games <\/a>at this time and that he hopes to have more to reveal soon, though what those titles will have to offer still remains a mystery.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>What do you hope to see from Valve?
