Missed the goal with that RRP and fully expect it to fall flat on its arse.

Thought I had missed something there. Fingers crossed.

Wait.... has Half Life 3 been confirmed now?!
November 18, 2025 at 7:16 PM
Yeah.... this looks great. Gosling is perfect casting for this.

Done it when I was younger, only started doing it again a few months ago. Try to mix it up every night - have done a couple nights of Kate Bush

The new album from Anna von Hausswolff called Iconoclasts. Dreamy experimental folk classical goth metal with a sprinkling of Bjork.

And here was me thinking you were being a wideo no responding to the music recommendation I DM'd you last week! 😂

Thats its market... console gamers wanting access to huge back catalogue of games.

Is it a big enough market? Not convinced
November 13, 2025 at 11:31 AM
Yeah, spec is very unserwhleming. My 2yr old laptop punches more than twice as hard.

If price point is right, it could be good entry point for console gamers to PC and massive catalogue

Also known as "the best games" 😂😂

They should all be OK as they have had remasters done recently.

Its the old stuff tjay has become abandonware that is a problem. Be interesting to see how they handle games that are played predominantly with a mouse and keyboard - ie C&C

Agree to an extent. There goal has been clear for a while - accessible cloud bassed subscription gaming.l and a pivot to a "console" that is essentially a Windows PC that can run Steam, Origin, Gog Galaxy, etc. I still believe that is a game changer.

Problem is Valve have stolen a jump on them now.
November 13, 2025 at 8:24 AM
To an extent, yes, but remember this is Steam and not a console so some games will require technical tweaks to run, some won't run at all as with all PCs. Ironically, the older games are the ones that tend to be harder to run at times.

Actually think the performance of this will dictate XBox's fate. If it flies, will be a lifeline for them since they are heading toward this very idea of gaming PC as console. If it fails, XBox have nowhere to go.
November 13, 2025 at 8:15 AM
The one thing it is going to do is absolutely rattle the console market and that is long, long, long overdue in my mind.
November 13, 2025 at 7:57 AM
The specs are very meh from a PC perspective. Comparable with consoles is a low bar.

If this was around £400, would be tempted for convenience/curiosity factor... but with custom GPU, suspect this is gonna be £600/700

Defo being pitched at console players... and really hope it is a success.
