Steam Machine Specs, Games, Price: New System Introduced, Games Discounted to Celebrate
The new Steam Machine console is now available to gamers.
The system is a whole new way to play popular PC games in any room of the house with a TV and a controller instead of a computer and keyboard.
To celebrate the Alienware Steam Machine, there is a game sale currently going on and popular titles can be purchased for very cheap prices, Polygon reports.
The Steam Machine is run by Valve's SteamOS. SteamOS has an expansive list of titles and millions of players in the community, according to a press release. Many of the games on SteamOS are either free or very affordable.
The Steam Machine is very versatile and allows for old games to be played across multiple platforms. It will also be able to play future games when they are released.
Although players are playing Steam games on a console, it will feel as if they were running the Steam program on their PC. They will be able to go into the message board, read news posts and change their controller settings.
The starting price of the Steam Machine is $450, so it is definitely a hefty investment. Casual gamers might be better suited with an Xbox One or PlayStation 4. The Steam Machine is for the experienced gamer.
Popular games like Half-Life 2 and Borderlands were Steam classics. Steam members who already have spent money on Steam games will be able to retain all of their titles, but if they don't have many games, now is the time to load up.
