Valve has sent waves of excitement across the gaming world with the unveiling of its new mini gaming PC, the Steam Machine, which runs SteamOS and surprised gamers across both the PC and console ecosystems. Valve seems intent on providing a console gaming experience while maintaining a large slice of its PC gaming identity.
With hardware that may just about challenge both the PS5 and Xbox Series X, we're looking at a potential serious contender within the console gaming market space. While the Steam Machine isn't an outright gaming console, it's essentially placed within a hybrid PC console space, which (on paper, according to specifications) looks like it could get close to the Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo consoles.
