Nvidia's just kicked off Game24 , a 24-hour, multi-city livestream event that they've labeled a "PC gaming holiday." I'm in attendance at Hangar 8 in Santa Monica, California for the start of broadcast.
Nvidia's promised a bunch of pre-recorded and live programming meant to inspire appreciation of the PC as a platform, including a 24-hour system modding competition , tournaments, giveaways, and interviews from participating developers like 2K, Boss Key, Epic, NCSoft, Blizzard, Wargaming, WB, Sony Online, Deep Silver, and more. It's a rare instance of a company involved with PC gaming stepping up to produce something that promotes the PC itself as a platform, and I'm interested to see how it's received. Check Nvidia's Game24 page for more details.

Amazon thought it could compete with Steam because it was so much larger than Valve, but Prime Gaming's former VP admits that 'gamers already had the solution to their problems'
'Not every story is told in that way': Phil Spencer says that live service games aren't the answer to every problem, and that smaller games play an important role
