Just saying
steam machine is a cube
Or would you say it looks like a box... Maybe an Orange Box!?!
I'm calling it - a limited release where the black shell is orange and it comes bundled with HL3 for free.
That would be amazing
I know you’re joking, and that would be enough to get me to buy one even though I don’t really have a use case for it.
I still have my boxed copy of the Orange Box on a shelf. It still sees use because every once in a while I get embroiled in a Kids These Days type of conversation and I need a prop to wave around.
I'd happily put an orange Gabecube right next to it.
I randomly kept my orange box case as a memento and found it recently. Lets find out if i can mod the steam machine to fit inside of it.

One of the shots of the steam machine had a "SoonTM" sticker
HL3, TF3, L4D3 as launch title for Steam Machine calling it right now. 😭😭😭😭

I was thinking about this in another thread where someone made this joke: With how much stuff Valve does outside of gaming, are we sure they have never done a 3rd iteration of something before? Like, they do business stuff too and are into a ton of random tech related things like BCIs. We only ever really hear about the game related stuff, tho. Or possibly when Gabe gets a new boat since they interview him on it.
You might just be overthinking a joke...
I'm just more committed to the bit.
A joke doesn't have to end with a punchline. Sometimes yes, anding is the best thing to do with a joke rather than just laughing and moving on.
Yes, and the best jokes are famously the ones you need to explain. Sometimes the audience is wrong and they need to be set straight.

They have definitely had third iterations of things, but have they called them 3?
I mean there are at least 5 half-life games, they just called the third one 1 and the fourth 2 and the fifth wasn't numbered.
The Steam app is on version 3 but the 3 isn't in the title.
And it’s arch btw
Arch VR BTW
Finally. Arch for my face
A whole new way of enjoying your ~~neofetch~~ fastfetch output!
Weight 2.6: 2+6=8 8/2=4 4-1gabecube=HL3confirmed
6/2...
Nah, that's too obvious, could have just been a coincidence. This, though...
I like how you were so excited, you couldn’t decide whether you wanted to highlight or circle it
WE DID IT
It uses arch, btw
Next week:
- One of the products cancelled
- SteamOS 3 renamed SteamOS: Freeman
Episode 3 confirmed!
I think you mean episode 2 expansion 1.
_version2_final_finalfinal-edit2.bin
HALF-LIFE 3 CONFIRMED LESSGOOOOOOOO!!!!!
You had me you bastard
THE PROPHECY!
Weight 2.6: 2/6 = 0.(3) = Infinite number of 3s
I’m hoping that that ARM support on the new VR headset means a Steam Phone may be in the works.
