Steam to release it’s own console like PC

With BIG PICTURE getting good reception. Valve will be making their own console style PC. 😀

“Well certainly our hardware will be a very controlled environment,” he said. “If you want more flexibility, you can always buy a more general purpose PC. For people who want a more turnkey solution, that’s what some people are really gonna want for their living room.

It’s like a console but minus the walled garden. 😀

Steam has metroized their forums.

Most of you know that I like Steam/Valve quite a bit. Still, I have no problem pointing out something I don’t care for. For awhile now with the new Steam interface it was known that you could start your own group forum discussions for your own groups, and Steam even had their own set of forums that were like the old forums, only accessible via Steam though. Well, with the latest updates Steam has made you can say goodbye to the SPUF you know and love.

For the steam browser this is a good interface, for the regular browser this is counter intuitive. I hope enough people complain about this to bring back the original forums. Unlike other companies, Valve actually listens to people. And if enough people feel the way I feel they may be able to sort something out.

Edited for teh grammarz.

Best day I’ve had in awhile!

Well, aside from my morning shift (still groggy from that and may pass out after dinnerbreakfast), I bought a new laptop, 2 1TB 7200 RPM drives AND made it into the Steam Linux beta! So I might have to download the latest Ubuntu ISO later on to prepare, either that or wait for my new gaming system to arrive. I’ll post specs about it later when I’m less tired.

On another note I have a couple SFM things in the pipeline. One of them being my latest dream from last night. I think I’ll start on that one first.

Gonna go read up on some stuff now.
