Actual good Halo would sell an xbox

Sony did increase the price on the PS5 in 2022. They just didn't do it for the Americans. The rest of the world had to eat it.

How likely is it that this container contained just another batch of Steam Controllers, labelled as gaming consoles as it is accessory?

8:00 for me, i dont need Steam Machine, cuz i am already more or less use one daily, i just dont use SteamOS, i use Fedora Workstation. so in that regard i am not attacking the buy button, do i want a steam machine and Steam VR? OH YES! I REALLY DO! But i dont need to buy it NOW.. i can buy it later on. i am waiting for the Steam VR stuff.

again? as a long time Linux user AMD has been THE Linux chad for 10 years!

43:25 cdp would never sell to ms… They came from pirate games and translations and are thankfully super anti drm. Luv u cdp 💘

I really want consoles to make a come back, and with how bad cheating has become in gaming I think that’s how they do it. Console needs to be the place you can go and KNOW you’re always on the same playing field as everyone else you’re playing against.

Re the keyboard; my vibe was “cool product, but not for me” which is what I get from a lot of advertising. Didn’t personally get the advert vibe from this though

GameStop still exists? that's the real news, thought they were on verge of permanently closing their doors several years ago because steam, GOG, Epic and other online markets were eating their lunches for the last 20 years. that might be the most shocking thing in the whole video. 🤣

I wonder how much of what we're seeing on the console gaming space is an indication that they're just seeing numbers showing that people aren't nearly as interested in consoles anymore. Their prices have gotten to ridiculous heights now. The reason I've heard from most people that buy consoles to begin with is they can't afford a real gaming PC, prices of consoles have hit the lower end of PC prices now, or rather what they USED to be. So that excuse is kind of meritless now. I think this is why Sony and Sega have been starting to experiment with releasing their previously exclusive games to steam and Microsoft to the MS store now. You ask what game exclusive could bring Xbox back to relevance? I don't think they can, nor do I think even entirely plan to.

I think they're planning to do one last generation and then take it out behind the shed and put it down if it doesn't perform exceptionally well compared to the Xbox One. Not the original, but the remake they decided to arbitrarily make 2 or 3(or whatever the count is now) subversions for rather than just work shopping a proper Xbox 4 like a sane company would have. people already hated the idea of needing to pay a subscription to play a game they already paid $70-$120 for, but they put up with it because the console prices were still acceptable, and the price wasn't quite high enough to override the FOMO. This is just not the case anymore. I know a couple of people whom have already decided they're done, they're not going to buy another console that isn't nintendo, because they are wisely keeping prices low. Sony can't really afford a PS5 price hike because it was already the price of a PC when it came out. I have a feeling that Sony is looking at MS right now and thinking the same thing. They can either stick around and try to fill the space, or they can acknowledge the writing on wall and conclude that if MS is deeming it unprofitable enough to continue, and our internal private numbers aren't doing so hot either, maybe we should too. But….hey, that's just a theory. . .

oh and a new Obsidian Fallout is never happening. they've addressed this publically a couple of times, they have no interest at all in working with bethesda or microsoft at this point they just wanna make their own IPs now. It's a shame, because it'd probably do really, really well, but, it is their call ultimately.

I could have told you that the Sceptre video was likely to outperform the keyboard video. The reason is its more applicable to more people. Not a lot of people can relate to a $500 keyboard that needs to be that price for a (cool) gimmick. However, I think a lot of people can relate to the frustration with modern smart TV operating systems being clunky, slow, and full of ads. TVs are very mainstream tech. Also, the TV video addresses a problem that people have, whereas "I wish I had a display inside my keyboard" is probably not a problem basically anyone has ever had.

(twenty)First! yay!

When the heck is the second Linux Challenge video coming out? Its been what, two months?

As I have said many times before, you are completely wrong about the value of the steam controller. Look at the inputs for the steam controller versus the Sony PlayStation 5 controller or the DualSense controller. It is night and day the difference. And if you go for the pro model of DualSense, it costs more than the steam controller for what? Replacable failing analog sticks? There are placeable analog sticks will cost you more in the long run than the TMR sticks in the steam controller, also, professional e-sports controllers can easily exceed $200. The steam controller is only a measly $99. The steam controller is meant to be serviceable and it is meant to last. Something that no other controller on the market is designed to do. If anything, this is why this frustrates me. You don't see the value, and if Valve ever decides to either make a firmware update to where you can take the controller out of whatever mode it is and have it emulate an Xbox controller in hardware, because it's just one firmware update away, then that will completely destroy any competition.
If anything, I see Valve as being extremely merciful to their competition.

All this Linux talk is incredibly boring, and I say that as someone that uses multiple OS's.

Hey Luke, I got the Rep Pepin adjustable dumbbells about 6 months ago after checking out reviews, expensive but I like them so far, though took some initial adjusting with the dock thing so that they slide in and out nicely

Wait what I literally left Conn like an hour before WAN went livd today
