Just got an email from Anna. Holy cow, 0.0711% chance of being selected...

Can't wait to caress those trackpads with me thumbs.

so you're in? Grats, man!

 

[xJavonta]

I'm not that interested in their pre-built PCs. I'd like to get my hands on that controller and the OS. Hopefully the OS is available soon then so we can all test it.

Friday.

 

[Alec]

I wonder what the machines themselves look like?

 

[zerokoolpsx]

No email.

umm, there are pictures in the op

Ah, thanks. They didn't show up for me in the OP due to my work's firewall.

Okay, yeah, I remember seeing these now. I guess I thought it was only concept renders.

 

[alba]

No email, oh well...

 

[atomsk]

oh well, guess I'll wait to buy the controller like most everybody else

 

[Iorv3th]

I filed a bug report. I figured that must be why I didn't receive an e-mail or badge.

so you're in? Grats, man!

Thanks! I was worried it might be spam, but my account got the badge so I'm fairly confident that I'm not fooling myself.

Pretty interested to see what model of the beta hardware I get -- here's hoping for a titan!

 

[Zeth]

No, you had to sign up and complete the tasks to get into the beta to be selected.

Haha, no.

You HAD to do the stuff to get the beta participant badge to even be CONSIDERED for the beta.

So, they still haven't announced winners? *ManHavingHeartAttack.gif*

Damn, I thought I lost. Guess we're still on the rollercoaster of Valve time, then?

It was a joke implying that chances of being selected were very small

 

[SummitAve]

I wanna play FTL with that controller so bad.

 

[Symphonic]

No email here. Glad someone on GAF got in so we can get detailed impressions

 

[Glass Shark]

Well, I didn't get in, but a coworker did. So at least i'll get to play with one in person.

If Microsoft has moneyhats, and Sony has candy - I wonder what Valve is going to use to ply people with? Please make sure to update us.

Dude, if you're legit... Congratulations, enjoy it, and post as much as you can on GAF!!

Edit - A mod needs to promote the guy so he can post the juicy info!

 

[marrec]

I didn't get the e-mail guys, but I did get something WAAAY more important.

SEE YA LATER NERDS I'M GETTING LAID

So far you're GAF's only hopes for detailed impressions. Live our dreams for us...

Wow, congrats man! Please hang around in the Steam thread and give us some impressions!

 

[Pelydr]

Aww no beta for me. Oh well, congrats raugupatis!

 

[polyh3dron]

dammit, I didn't get in.

):

 

[kirby_fox]

Add another one to the "not selected" pile. I wonder if they chose specific areas in the US or if it was just random selection for anyone who qualified.

 

[jokkir]

I didn't get selected but since it's US-only, I was already dead before it started

 

[tokyo slim]

What?

Was a joke, sort of. Apparently Microsoft hands out money to people to influence reviews and gain exclusives and etc.. Sony gives candy to devs. I was just wondering what Valve is going to do (Besides handing out free Titans, I guess), now that they are playing CONSOLE WARZ!

Hats. What else?

ooh, free hats?!? Sold!

 

[TouchMyBox]

I'm regretting not using my US mailing address right about now.

 

[def sim]

No email. Oh well, this is exciting stuff anyway.

 

[Glass Shark]

Well anyway, when my friend gets his we plan on taking a bunch of pictures and videos and things like that. I'll post whatever I can.

Did you get a Steambox, or just the controller? Either way, very awesome. Congrats!

Sweet! Congratulations! Now, I expect daily updates and heaps of pictures. Open that thing and give us techporn.

ughhghggagasdasd

edit: congrats to the winners tho

 

[Finalizer]

Eagerly awaiting controller impressions!

 

[CountAntonius]

Sigh...

 

[Snaku]

Bummer, no email.

 

[Dacvak]

I got in, as well. Just sent off my signed documentation back to Valve. Looks like they're shipping on Friday. Super excited!

(Man, and this is right after I got Google Glass, a new TV, PS4/Xbone, and a Nexus 5. I have too many toys now!)

I'm also anxious to see if I'll be able to, at all, use my Oculus Rift with the Steam Machine. I guess I'll find more out later! Can't wait to try out that controller.

 

[Nabs]

Congrats
