Valve does nothing and still wins

    The lacking international support with Valve hardware limits market spread like most consoles. Plus they’ll probably not really advertise outside of Steam store and these initial YouTube videos/Influencer releases.

    Valve kinda hamstrings their own full potential despite doing so well already.

    I have seen that Valve has said the Frame will be cheaper than the Index. That would really make it.

    This is gonna be good.

    TL;DR: The Steam Machine’s specs are on par or better with the PS5.

    So, old.

        I think it’s a bit premature to announce that someone is about to win something when they haven’t released it yet and the last time they released something it flopped

          The Steam Deck was a flop? I was unaware.

          I think if there are objective specifications of a device, and the device’s specifications are measurably better than another device there’s nothing wrong with comparing the two.

          However, the root of my response, which has been so gracefully sidestepped, is regarding the root of the comment that the PS5 is old. Yes, it may be a few years old, but it is still the current console generation.

          I guess everyone should just go out and chuck all their old consoles into the giant mountains of E-waste because we should all be setting up to have the newest most powerful thing!
