I pray they add splitscreen onto this at some point, feels wrong not having it on a timesplitters game

"Schrödinger's cat is a thought experiment from 1935 that illustrates a paradox in quantum mechanics by suggesting a cat in a sealed box would be both alive and dead at the same time, existing in a quantum superposition until the box is opened and observed"

While desktop mode only I do hope later on he can look into adding the big picture mode
For now big picture mode on steam does a good job of thst for me, and I use boilR to add my heroic/lutris games onto steam, if you add your steamgrid api key it will even sort all the artwork out
I do wish valve would add ambient background music to big picture and steamOS. They could even have a selection of music on the points store!

I'll definitely be watching closely at how this performs compared to ps5 and series x
I've had my PC for 8 years now, the longest I've ever gone, normally every 5 years I build a brand new PC but for me these days it's just unfeasible :( *cries in poor*
That's why when rumours came about a possible new steam machine I was hopeful, I'd love a console/PC hybrid that can play the latest titles at reasonable settings
Also everyone said the price point for steam deck was always a good deal for the hardware inside, so I feel the steam machine will be good value for money which in this day and age is something to behold.
I'm also just happy valve has made me excited about hardware again, I use to get excited every time a new console was announced but that died for me after the 360/ps3 era..new hardware from valve always gives me a huge tech-boner :)

I wish it was actually called the 'gabecube' lol, gamecube was the first thing I thought of when I saw the reveal
Edit: I use the "target acquired" portal 2 gun turrent movie intro for few years now, for when I'm on big picture mode :)

1080p can still look OK on a 4k display imo, the price is going to be the important part here but their claim it's a 4k 60fps machine is abit dubious
Only question I'm asking myself is whether to get an oled steam deck now, or wait.. worried ill buy one now and it will be discounted next year or something, but with their focus on steam machine 2.0 at least I don't have to worry about a steam deck 2 round the corner as its probably a long way off atm

Imo we don't really need a galaxy client, I use it on windows 11 and it's just not that great
I'd love to see them support linux ports more, it sucks how some games have native linux on steam but not gog
I'd also love to see them just fix up their current games that support linux. Hotline Miami 1 and 2 on gog require hunting down old 32bit libs to get them to even run!
Steam? Install game, play game. Why? The steam runtime includes alot of common libs.
Sure, I imagine some old linux ports on steam still might require manually grabbing the required libs, as is the nature with linux distros evolving. Still be nice if GOG could try and include some of these required libraries.
