Then I really think this would be a waste of time in whatever format unless you are willing to have a small factor windows machine built for your tv to be able to get the full benefit of of big screen pc gaming!!

I dunno mate. I still believe we will see a rapid increase in the availability of supported AAA titles on Steam.

Either way, I suspect Timey will have an enviable machine like this one.

And he'll still have his PS4, which with 8 x ACE should see some big improvements when developers really start to take advantage of multi thread game structures. XBone may struggle there as I believe it only has two. I wonder if Sony knew this when they customised their (effectively the same as the Xbone's) APU? They are part of the Kronos group, while MS perhaps had DX12 aspirations in mind instead.

It will be interesting to see how it plays out over the next 18 months.

I genuinely hope so mate!

I'll sit on the fence for now

And so it begins...

Also to reiterate your (my) point:

�We�ll come out with our own [box] and we�ll sell it to consumers by ourselves. That�ll be a Linux box, [and] if you want to install Windows you can. We�re not going to make it hard. This is not some locked box by any stretch of the imagination. We also think that a controller that has higher precision and lower latency is another interesting thing to have.� -Gabe Newell

Now thats not exactly going to sit under my TV Nell is it.and it looks more like a PC than a Steam Machine.

And Unfortunately i don't have any $ to hand and only have English Pounds.

Even i wouldn't pay that price and go that far,I'm keen but not that much.

Crazy to think a PS4 or Xbone is going to last long. Technology is moving on too fast, consoles need to have the option to upgrade.

Consoles are dead

That's because ultimately it is a pc

True and that's the beauty of building a small form factor pc for your tv matey and either running steam os or better still (for now Nelly) running windows

It will definitely have to have Windows if Project Cars and Dirt Rally aren't on Steam by the time I can afford to build one. It's the main purpose of my buying/building in the first place!

Another Poor Electrician.... Don't listen tot he Sob Stories this Guys loaded .
