Steam OS!

OH MY GOD

Dream do come true.

"All the games you love

Hundreds of great games are already running natively on SteamOS. Watch for announcements in the coming weeks about all the AAA titles coming natively to SteamOS in 2014. Access the full Steam catalog of over nearly 3000 games and desktop software titles via in-home streaming."

What what what?! O_O

Steam is adding music/TV shows/etc catalogues? :O

Goodbye Windows!!

Now i know why steam split it into 3 announcements :D

First announcement gave me an gamergasm that only just ended haha!! still quivering

I'm a bit confused on why I would want SteamOS.

looks like steambox will just be used as streaming like Nvidia sheild. You still need your desktop power to play your games

This is much more than what I expected. I already anticipated the in-home streaming thing, as they talked about Big Picture, but I didn't expected something like this.

Wow, just wow. And this is only the first of 3 announcements. Now, I do believe they are announcing Steambox (which will run Steam OS ofc).

Valve will conquer the whole planet in about 10 years from now

Hmm, why not...

Zero fucks were given that day, HL3 or GTFO.

sounds like you can make your own steambox if you have a old laptop or something laying around install steam OS, then stream from gaming desktop to constantly plugged in "tv laptop" / "steambox"

Very nice. Now I can plug in a shit PC to my TV and stream games to it. Very nice indeed.

It is nice, but having a OS that is for Steam alone will be pointless unless you buy a computer just for steam. Guess you could dual boot but it is a bit of hassle. If you want to surf the web while playing games will this be able to do that? only time will tell how this will play out.

There is also origin, desura, gog, etc games to worry about. so you will always need another OS to play that stuff.

A new linux distro, what a surprise.

I'm StamOS

Dont know how should i feel about that announcement except from the fact that my name is almost similar to the SteamOS

I have to remind you guys, this isn't made for the PC gamers as much as it's made for Console gamers.

I just mean the target audience.

Nice. Very nice. SteamBox announcement next?

I sure hope this encourages developers/publishers to pay more attention to Linux as a platform. Would love to see "Out now, windows and mac versions coming soon!" in game descriptions within 5 years. People probably won't give up their Windows until that happens, but I know a lot of us already boot into windows solely for steam.

MOG...this sounds amazing, can't wait to find out more!

Would this new OS in any way affect my ability to stream porn incognito style?

Overall I think it's a great move and will probably net Valve a whole new segment of casual gamers as well.

If we ignore netbooks, low powered laptops, tablets and HTPCs then yes, this is absolutely useless!

If we consider the fact this will be a stripped down version of Linux suitable for all those devices I mentioned, then we could be onto something! I would hope that this will be tweaked and out perform almost any other distro out of the box when it comes to gaming on Steam.

Hmmm. Ready for Chromecast support. I'm in.

I... I am disappointed :/
I know I know, but still... I can't do anything with this.
Damn it Valve.

This is so cool!
