Possible Steam Box?

Still no sign of the Steam Box.

IGN only displayed the PS4 and X-Box 720.

Nintendo and Valve

What do you mean?

And it's only $500-$1000 - that's amazing! (not).

Oh damn...hmm, but it can only play games, a replacement for all consoles?

It's a sign but no release date, meanwhile Microsoft and Sony dominate the market.

Yup - not to mention everyone will do cloud-based sync'ing - meaning: no more burned/stolen games, no more used games, no more trading with friends to play different games, nothing. Xbox has already been linked with something in place to prevent games from being used on different consoles - games are 'tied' to consoles once they're purchased and cannot be used again - effectively killing off the used-game business. I imagine other console fags will follow. PC all day, we already know that.

That thing isn't a Steambox. It's called the Piston and Valve did some work with them last year but have dismissed this thing as their Steambox, there's an article here http://www.tomshardware.com/news/Piston-Steam-Box-Steam-PC-Gaming-Xi3-Corp.,21492.html
