Yes! Less competition is definitely good for the industry!

Yeah probably not the best idea but I'm horny.

I had a Steam Deck for a few months, and it's a very straightforward experience for those who just want to plug and play, but it's a bit tricky to do some things because the system is based on Linux, not to mention some important games that aren't compatible. Microsoft has the advantage in this regard, they own Windows and an Xbox OS would be based on it... They could make launchers install with just one click, games with anti-cheat wouldn't have compatibility issues, etc.

Depending on how it goes, I won't have a problem having this Xbox/PC hybrid as my secondary console alongside a Nintendo console, since pretty much all games are coming out for PC anyway... I just haven't migrated to PC because I want a device with a straightforward experience.

Microsoft is a champion of failed advantages!

They sure know how to screw things up lol

Microsoft is probably the only company with enough money to buy Steam at some point. It can't remain a private company forever, right?

Gabe wouldn’t sell to MS, he hates them.

I'm the end it's about money, not feelings.

I just want to say to all those who wish for Microsoft to buy Valve... you do not deserve to enjoy video games.

I mean if they manage to mix Windows gaming with Xbox gaming melted into one ecosystem with PC parts this could be a really good SteamMachine V2. Like imagine when you boot it up you can select "Xbox" or "Steam" and you get different SKUs from $500 all the way up to $1500 or something. It would be a smart way to get "Xboxs" playing Playstation games lol.

If an Xbox runs Steam automatically it will become a common PC (that can even be bought now).
