Valve continues to put console gaming in its crosshairs with news that a dozen new Steam Machines are hitting this November. Prices aren't concrete, but the company promises higher performance than game consoles starting at "the same price point." What's more, new units from Alienware and Falcon Northwest are on display at this year's Game Developers Conference, with the latter showing off Unreal Tournament running on a 4K monitor.

im interested, especially with mainstream vr around the corner.

are these running on a linux based os?

Maybe thats why steam got so many games ported to linux

If the price range is around this current gen systems.. Sony and Microsoft may have to scrap up quickly to work on next gen in two years.

I remember when they first started talkin bout steam machines and there was a diagram show how modular the machines can be. It shows the components being able to pop in/out like nintendo cartridges or sever blades

Next gen consoles drop? Cop an updated gpu for your steam machine that will surely be cheaper than the next gen console

This is a flop in the making. Who is this marketed to?

If you have a gaming pc you don't need this and you aren't stopping the vast majority of casuals from buying a console from playstation, Nintendo or Xbox brand.
