Besided from what I would consider false promises as well (the games shown), I like the trailer.
They invested some thought in what makes the product, the Steam Machines, unique.

Quoting: FutureSutureWhat's wrong in this image?

Only the colour of the table.

I hope.

Quoting: omer666You're talking about Wii U I guess ? Because not only did the Wii get a lot of games (1527 according to Wikipedia), but it also got a lot of big Japanese RPG titles, big platformers, all of the CoD shit and so on.

So SteamOS has a few more titles before launch than Wii has at its end of life...

Quoting: constAll in all, it went way better then anyone of us would have guessed two years back, didn't it?

Thanks for your comment.

Nearly three years ago, I wrote a blog post telling about the first professional game I bought for Linux (Trine 2). There were about 40 games for Linux on Steam and I called it "illusory" and a "dream" that I could delete my Windows partition some day. I did delete it one and a half years ago.

Quoting: Graham Smith“Don’t launch in Early Access if you can’t afford to develop with very few or no sales.” I imagine that, if followed, this guideline would cut down on the number of games released through the service by about 95%.

Couldn't have said it better myself.

If I don't misread this, these rules are not from Rock, Paper, Shotgun, but have been set by Valve.
Now developers only need to obey to them...

Quoting: maodzedunI don't get fishing/hunting games. I really don't.

I never tried any, but still...
I can imagine sitting for hours in nature and waiting for the fish to bite is relaxing, somewhat adventurous, you're in nature and all that. But a game hasn't got lots of these features...

Quoting: GuestI just played half an hour on my i5 4690K / GTX 660 / Gentoo box, and so far the game is better than I expected: butter smooth 60 FPS in 1920×1200, perfect keyboard handling (with my bépo keyboard), great mouse handling. The only issue so far is the lip movements are not syncronized to the French translation.

Thanks for telling!
So I won't need a new GPU with my GTX 660 on 1680x1050! :)
What graphics settings do you use?
