Multiple Manufacturers May Confuse Steam Machine Buyers

Game developer Valve's second of three major announcements this week has hit the Internet, and its hardware strategy is not quite what the Internet was expecting. Rather than releasing its own Steam boxes, Valve has elected to let third parties build a wide range of SteamOS systems — a strategy that could prove both beneficial and confusing.

I doubt it just at look AndroidOS, WP8 and even the PC.

Confusing if you're illiterate. Otherwise, I doubt anyone is too stupid to know how to buy a new shiny electronic.

TBH, most people that buy their new iPhones and Andriod Smart Phones dont know anything about them other than they heard they where good on an ad or from someone they know.

most of them dont show any will to learn them at all.

i dont get why they constantly buy hightech gear but dont even bother with how they work or how they get the most out of their stuff.

Feralkitsune3956d ago

Exactly, they just have to know that it exists, and they will find a way to spend money on it.

That is like people being confused because there are multiple phone or car companies.

Funny! Maybe back in the 80's, but today, most kids they they are PC gurus!

JsonHenry3956d ago (Edited 3956d ago )

I don't think that anyone that knows even the smallest bit about PC gaming in general will be confused. You know your hobby.

SpiralTear3956d ago

The people who will buy this will probably have some form of tech education with them already, so I doubt compatibility and specs will be a confusing issue. If you can buy a certain kind of smartphone, you'll be able to buy a certain kind of SteamOS device.

It's bring more needed games to the PC ecosystem. It looks like PC only has 1 VR game.

What are you talking about? Most VR games are only available through PCVR.

They can't be that good if the only game they show is Alyx.

porkChop1h ago

JFC you're uneducated. It's just a promo image. Are they supposed to release thousands of promos for every VR game on Steam? Why don't you just go to the Steam store and take a look at the VR games? You can even mod non-VR games on PC like GTA V or Cyberpunk 2077 to make them fully playable in VR.

I wish this would happen more often, there are a lot of Steam games I would buy limited physical editions for if they existed.

Valve Might Be Working On Adding An Android Emulator In Steam

As per the latest discoveries by a popular SteamVR dataminer, Valve is rumored to be working on adding an Android emulator in Steam.

Interesting, I currently using Bluestacks on my PC, it works okay, but not all games are compatible, and some work but with glitches, so it would be nice to have an alternative option.

FinalFantasyFanatic19d ago

I've had more or less the same experience with Bluestacks, so having a Steam equivalent, which may work similar or better (or even if it plays some stuff better than Bluestacks) would be wonderful.
