Steam Machines and Steam Controller shipping December 13th

4.6
The first round of 300 beta Steam Machines and controllers ship out on Friday, December 13, Valve announced. Selected beta testers will be notified today around 5PM ET. These anointed ones will find a few games running on SteamOS in their libraries and badges on their Steam profiles marking them as participants.

SteamOS will go live once the hardware ships on Friday, downloadable by individual users and commercial OEMs. Additionally, the in-home streaming beta will begin soon, Valve notes.

Steam Machines are due to ship commercially in 2014. Expect more information about Valve's hardware initiative at CES in January.

doges Can't wait to see some of the videos of these, hopefully they're some great gaming machines!


I'm actually kind of interested when it comes to how the OS will work. Hopefully some videos will be up in the near future


It makes me wonder if modders will ever find a way to make it a windows machine.


If they do it won't be for a long time to come. It would be interesting though to see it happen.

I feel like these will be amazing gaming computers but as for other things it just won't be good as Windows due to the fact that they are a game based company. I really wonder how the OS will feel and if it will be more like the Mac, Obtuntu, or Windows interfaces.
