If they can get my i5 with a gtx 780 for 1300, I'll bite. since that's about what it will cost for me to build it myself.

 

[Exuro]

Alternate box just looks like the Node 304 from a quick look.

Also, dat gigabyte box.

 

[V_Ben]

Alienware finally made a case not born from the pits of hell.

[Dennis]

 

[A-V-B]

Not just one... not just two... but thirteen!

Incoming inevitable gif where each TARDIS flying around in space from 50th anniversary scene is separate Steam Machine.

 

[Clydefrog]

ah, I see Alternate went with the Huge Box approach.

 

[HariKari]

Gigabyte one is tiny

 

[d0g_bear]

node 304 hell yes

 

[Lactose_Intolerant]

Alienware finally made a case not born from the pits of hell.

The top probably has a giant glowing alien head

Falcon NW just put a steam logo on a pc case and called it a day.

 

[D4Danger]

the gigabyte box is tiny. home streaming?

 

[kami_sama]

The gigabyte's one is so small!

 

[HariKari]

No date or price on the controllers

blah

 

[Mrbob]

Multiple Steam controllers? Not sure if I like this.

And lol at the user base troll, damn.

 

[_woLf]

We're at 65 million; it'll take Microsoft and Xbox One a while to catch up with 3 million in 1.5 months (ha!)

Shots fired!

 

[OldAsUrSock]

The gigabyte must be using an APU.

 

[Stitch]

Oh wow, Alternate.

Actually wanted to buy some hardware from Alternate to build my own PC mhh.. but this thing is ugly lol

Gabe XDDD

 

[Bookoo]

This being streamed or only live blogged?

 

[nacimento]

Gigabyte one is tiny

Looks like a sleak Wii.

 

[Santiako]

Valve's going to be selling its own Steam controllers, but manufacturers will be producing their own models too -- the whole idea behind Steam Machines is to diversify the platform. Once again, though, no details on release.

That's interesting, we'll probably see Steampads with different button layouts.

 

[kharma45]

Gigabyte one reminds me of an Intel NUC

 

[Nabs]

Thanks for attending

 

[Baleoce]

Multiple Steam controllers? Not sure if I like this.

And lol at the user base troll, damn.

Not sure how I feel about this.

 

[jediyoshi]

GABE OUT

 

[ThaiGrocer]

Suddenly Kaz Hirai materializes in my other tab. That was surprising.

 

[Kadin]

That's it?!?

 

[Mushroomer25]

Aaand it's over. They pulled a sheet off a table. WHOOP WHOOP.

 

[Whompa]

are they streaming it at all or just a liveblog? Otherwise I'll just watch Sony's conf

 

[HariKari]

Multiple Steam controllers? Not sure if I like this.

And lol at the user base troll, damn.

Why wouldn't you like it?

Have large hands? Buy an XL model. Have small hands? Buy the small model. Everything and anything in between. Options. That's what PC is about.

 

[bounchfx]

Thanks for attending

XD

I can't believe its over already lol

 

[ComputerMKII]

Any pictures of the materiel.net Steam Machine?

 

[xJavonta]

That Alienware box is hot

 

[Santiako]

7 minutes long conference, that's a record.

 

[Ionic]

Well, we got some handsome pictures of Gabe out of it.

 

[Jarate]

Well that was uneventful

 

[opticalmace]

Valve has mastered the 8-minute press conference (including Q&A).

 

[Crimsonclaw111]

It's really over? lol

 

[Chipotle]

Finished already. Ha.

 

[Whompa]

wait wtf that was it!?!?!? LOL...holy crap...

 

[Bookoo]

Wow...why did they even bother doing a keynote?

 

[Liha]

That's it? olol

One more question in this apparently very short conference: Titles? "There are about 250 titles running." The issue is building developer tools, especially ones that will let them support Linux, Mac, and Windows simultaneously -- not to mention getting everything to work with the controllers.

 

[LOLDSFAN]

Well that was short.

 

[Nzyme32]

Brilliant. Gabe has passed the hardware batton to the vendors. More info incoming as everyone runs to see them!

 

[Hugh Buelow]

Well, at least we now have an idea of what the steam machines look like... Heh.

 

[def sim]

i was thinking of buying a pre-built one for the novelty of it, i guess, but after seeing these i'm still going to build my own

 

[rrs]

are they streaming it at all or just a liveblog? Otherwise I'll just watch Sony's conf

Just liveblogs, and it's already over.
