Rumor: Steam Machine $499 with a AMD Radeon R9 270. RIP PS4 And XboxOne If True

[2 Up 2 Down]

Didn't read the article, but besides power, why would someone add this along side their PS4 and/or XB1?

somebody break this down for us non-nerds

what the hell is this? will it have games like NBA 2K and Madden? what is the benefit of playing games on it vs. a PS4?

this may be my second console. I was actually thinking about a wii u to go on the opposite side of my ps4 but this may be the best of both worlds.

 

[daze23]

so there are going to be different models put out by different 3rd party companies?

yep. in fact I don't think Valve will even be selling their own. they're just making the prototypes for testing, and after that they'll just be making the controllers

I expect most companies that make custom pc's will make them. as well as DIY options

if anything the wii-u is the console the steam machine can't replace....the most replaceable would be the xbox 1.....since it has the least quaility exclusives in a generation and the exclusives they do have sometimes reach the PC....

this steambox sounds great so far. i can see them taking the xbox1 demographics since microsoft wants to turn the xbox into a home entertainment system.

 

[Responsible Allen Iverson]

you can put it on there

I wonder how AMD's linux drivers are doing though...

shytty. I need to cop an NVidia card

I'm tryna figure out who this would market towards.. PC gamers like building their own rigs and customization for the most part...and Console gamers aren't that much interested in what the PC has to offer..main demographic I think it would take over would be the Xbox One audience...it may end up being a problem for Microsoft..

why would it only affect the "Xbox One audience"?

The best exclusives are on Xbox One until proven otherwise.
Titanfall, Sunset Overdrive, Kinect Sports Rivals, Spark, Halo 5, Killer Instinct Season 2, State of Decay 2, Quantum Break. All of these games are in 2014 and thats not even all the titles

PS4 has an infamous series that has never found a REAL fanbase. Nothing else is scheduled to appear on PS4 that is worth talking about. Don't make that mistake again or its curtains for you

Cause it's the weaker system and has the least exclusive history...most of the games hit the PC even it is "exclusive"..but either way. .even the Xbox One audience may not even care about that either..and the interface on the X1 is nice enough for people to not wanna make the switch..
