Steam Machine is going to be more expensive than a console says Valve

Valve has not only said that they won’t be making a loss on Steam Machine but that its price will be more in line with a PC than a console.

The announcement that Valve is going to give the Steam Machine concept a second go has been one of the biggest surprise announcements of the year. The device is a sort of missing link between console and PC, with the small, cube-like hardware able to connect to any TV or monitor and supposedly capable of playing any Steam game.

That’s great in theory, and very similar to what many expect from the next gen Xbox, but the unveiling earlier in the month was very short on details, most obviously in terms of its price.

If it’s halfway between a console and PC that already gives an indication that it will be more expensive than a PlayStation 5 or Xbox Seri
