I just saw the optical disk version of the PS5 on sale for the equivalent of ~US$380 at a nearby store. Presumably the digital-only version is even less. The Steam Machine has a slightly shittier GPU but is going to cost 2-3x the price, isn’t it? Why bother with the fucking thing if that’s the case.

    I certainly don't see it, but I guess they are confident enough that there's a market for people who want access to the gigantic Steam library but also don't want to build their own PCs? Maybe it's going to run very smoothly, but that would also be dependent on the optimization of each individual game.
