Steam Machine and Controller?

Anyone seen the new Steam Machine?

I have no idea really.
Is it really new, or the concept ones from 2013/14?

Preorder now.

I can’t say i’m keen on the d-pad. We humans have made some pretty terrible d-pads (looking at you, OUYA), but… eh… I’d give the design a 7/10.

not gonna lie it might replace my PS4 because of the wide range of titles including indie titles

But what about the sony exclusives?

There hasn’t been many

Gran Turismo :frowning:

Nobody cares about racing games.

Just think all the games that you think would never come to console like “The Sims”, “SimCity”, “Cities:Skylines”, etc are available on the Steam Machine

I still like PCs more. For 500$ I could build one which could handle games in 30 FPS (smooth as a baby’s booty) and could use my PS 3 controller.

(Yeah, 30 FPS is a lot for me)

ahahah… let’s not get too carried away here…

IMO, use the Dualshock 4. 3 and Sixaxis doesn’t really work it for me. Plus the DS4’s analog sticks are amazing

Then buy me one…

Anyone know if the steam machine will have the same FPS running games as on my computer?

What is your computer…

The steam machine is a computer. It just has special software installed. I believe it actually runs Windows.
