Still looks weird. But, I have to try it first hand to know if it's for me.

Agree I need to try it. Seems to me though like controlling an FPS on a smartphone, it really doesn't work well. Great if it does though.

An FPS on a touchscreen wouldn't be too bad, IF the device had shoulder buttons. The main problem with shooters on mobile is that it is impossible to walk and shoot and aim at the same time.

if you can't play tekken. whats the point?

mixelon4363d ago

The PC version of Tekken? Is there even a PC version of Tekken? :)

Why wouldn't you be able to anyway?

OrangePowerz4364d ago (Edited 4364d ago )

I don't see the haptic feedback to work well in genres like FPS, 3rd person shooters and so on.

The only part of the steam machine initiative I like is having an OS tgat strips away the unnecessary resource usage by background tasks and services when playing games.

If I can play strategy games comfortably with it I will be super happy, thats the holy grail for me.

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit12d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing12d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9212d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
