Valve Introduces Steam Machine, Steam Frame, Steam Controller - Gabe Cube

And?? Are you trying to tell me I should hate all tech bros? I'm not amish. If YOU are, get off the Internet.

I feel like this would of happened eventually. Not like Nintendo, sony, or Microsoft is keeping them much, and gta6 won't even have a real physical copy

Elaborate. More importantly point to a better example.

Simply to not get banned. Ie I can't play some games in cucked Australia. If they didn't do this, steam wouldn't exist in Australia. Blame them.

Steam input , steam os, refund policy, remote play, steam link software, review's, curators, forums, community, guides, steam deck, steam controller, and a generally well managed storefront.

You can just disable seeing them, actually seeing them is disabled by default. You enabled finding porn games and are shocked to find porn games...
Hides profile like a pussy award.
 
I'm going to say what most of you "you're paying the Valve tax" posters need to hear: you sound like an insufferable faggot and need to shut the fuck up.

"Oh, you can't upgrade it!"
The people buying it don't care.
"Oh, you can throw together a bunch of e-waste and get decent performace."
The people buying it don't care.
"Oh, but I just want people to not waste their money!"
The people buying it don't care.

The people buying it want system that they can take out of a box, put under their TV, push a button, and start gaming.
And what valve fanboys (And I say this as a valve fanboy myself, a bit.) like you need to hear is: you are wasting your money, hundreds of dollars of it, on something you can get for cheaper elsewhere.

Seriously, there are pre-built PCs that can give you the same stuff the steam machine/gabecube does for less money spent. Given that, why in the fuck are you spending $1000 on this thing for? At least wait until it goes on sale in a year or so, fuck.

It's 2026. A single stick of 8GB RAM went from $30 to $90 in the span of months. There is no "cheaper elsewhere".
The shipping window for reservations goes into 2027. There's not going to be any "sale in a year or so".

You're fucking retarded, dude. I literally posted links on the previous page that show why you're retarded too. Waste your money however you wish, but don't expect me or anyone else on here with a bare modicum of sense to not call you stupid for doing so.
 
Wish I had as good friends as Valve does with Microsoft and Sony. Valve stumbles a little with the price of the Slopcube and MS and Sony take no time at all blowing a big ol 'cado sized hole in their foot

Erm, is this you?

Seriously, most people don't want something the size of a CRT under their living room TV to play video games. They're not all as autistic as I am. The fact you can't get it through your fucking head that this is competing with SFF shows how retarded you are.

Again, you = retard. You can literally get a mini PC comparable to this thing to do the self same shit, for cheaper. If "most people" are like you, then guess what? They're fucking retards too.

This is how I know most valve apologists are retarded. One of the biggest cope comments is "but the size tho". Yeh the overall footprint is small but its a fucking cube. You can get all sorts of furniture but traditionally your home media centre is made for long and narrow rectangular boxes - consoles, sound systems etc.

Valve made a square peg for a rectangular hole and people are hailing it like its some revolutionary design instead of the xbox series x tier abomination that it is.
 
but its a fucking cube
If only it were a sphere right???


I feel like you could of more easily said you can get equivalent devices of similar form factor of similar price or whatever, complaining its a cube is definitely new.

Did you also think the gamecube was retarded because it was cube shaped?? Just checking.

Learn to read.

I'm not complaining, I'm saying the people glazing the design like it's some revolution in engineering are stupid.

Sounds more like you were complaining it wasn't rectangular enough like dvd players or other shit.

Which is EXTREMELY moot btw, if it fits it fits. Fun fact, cubes fit in rectangular holes with EXTRA room.

Also I don't think anyone in this thread is acting as if the form factor is reinventing the wheel. They WERE SAYING its compact for what it is, which is true, since any alternative would need several dongles to do roughly the same thing, from everything I've seen.

Is it overpriced for what it is? Sure. Is this valve being greedy jews? I don't think so, given the ram market and their old plans. Is it worth the money? For 95% of the population probably not. But ffs make your complaints decent. Complain about equivalent price, complain how they switched to "up to 4k", complain how it's less powerful than a PS5. Because complaining its a square while your shelf is rectangular is stupid and I'm tired of being a valve enjoyer who also needs to tell you how to properly rip on it.

It ruins the fun of arguing.

Maybe its just kf but I swear I find more extreme hyperbole occasionally on here than other places. I don't think the thing is worth it, I've said that multiple times, but ffs ripping on it because its a cube is retarded, and I don't think making retarded arguments helps your case. Because if at the end of the day someone's going to pay extra for a subps5 hardware, I don't think calling it cubic will ever convince them of anything except that valve haters sound retarded.

If its indeed you are frustrated others aren't hating it enough, whatever, I get it. But complaining of the shape is pointless, and is going to convince nobody.
 
I ain't reading all that shit but I'm happy for you, or sorry that happened.

Other people have posted to say they're getting it and no one gives a shit, your money your life. And equally the people getting it don't care that others are criticising it and point out it's flaws.

You on the other hand wade in here spilling your spaghetti all over the floor with paragraphs long autistic screeching any time anyone even mildly criticises valve and m'lady gaben. It's kinda pathetic ngl.

There are some comparably nice mini cases too.
Although if you just need to watch shows and movies you can set up a plex/jellyfin server for super cheap on a libre roc renegade with an hdd and if you just need to game in your living room you can even stay in the Valve ecosystem and use Steam Link on a raspberry pi. Then you dont even need to worry about the second set of hardware. Unlike the mini pc both of these can hide in your TV cabinet at the same time.

(Although in the case of the greentext i’d still just pay for netflix while i knew i’d be bringing women over because it tricks them into thinking you’re some normal guy who doesnt know what a linux is.)

Thanks for the info. As for the greentext, I really didn't pay much attention to it, but now that I think about it, it would probably best to just bring up a stream from one of the various sites that stream movies for free, rather than having to pay money to pedoflix, honestly.

My recommendation for small PCs is usually an ex-corporate machine from Lenovo/Dell/HP like these. I had one with a Ryzen APU as my living room PC for a long time and it worked great for media and light gaming. I built a SFF box to replace it and turned the mini PC into a Jellyfin server to stream media in my home.

They are quite expensive new but being business machines the prior gen models tend to flood the market at good prices when businesses renew their PC fleet. Compared to the steam machine they are microscopic and are about the size of a paperback book. Don't know about the current batch but I know lenovo released models with a dedicated single slot GPU in the past which is pretty insane for a PC with a total volume of 1L.
