That's completely unfair. It may not be realistic to expect Valve to get the same catalog for Linux gaming as is available on Windows, but Steam Boxes cost roughly the same as similarly-equipped Windows gaming PCs, so it's the same market. It's unrealistic to expect Valve to be able to deliver the full Steam catalog on Linux now, but it's equally unrealistic to expect potential users to not care about the number of games available, particularly AAA games.
- ekianjo 13y agoHey, the SteamMachines are not even out yet. Let's talk again in Late 2014 shall we?
- cwyers 13y agoI mean, we can talk later, but we have some information on the capabilities of the proposed Steam Machines, the prices, and what games are available right now and what are announced (the majority of AAA games between now and the end of summer are already announced, I can't think of any that have Linux support announced alongside Windows/Xbox/Playstation). There's certainly enough information to make SOME judgement about what Valve is doing. Being openminded enough to receive new information doesn't require us to shut off our brains now.
