Valve's Steam Machine (affectionately dubbed the GabeCube by the internet) is aiming to find a place in the living rooms of gamers next year, despite being primarily a PC. But even though the hardware's looking to bundle console comfort with a PC-forward experience, the company's apparently not keen on pricing the Steam Machine like a traditional console.
That's according to YouTuber Linus Sebastian, AKA Linus Tech Tips, who apparently chatted to a Valve spokesperson about the hardware due out early next year. "[Valve] said that, while they expect it to be very competitively priced with a PC, that it will be priced like a PC rather than like a console with games subsidizing the upfront hardware purchase," the hardware-focused content creator says in a recent video (spotted by Dexerto).
