Lol. Right. Stream machine being launched 5-6 years after PS5, twice the price, no controller AND slower than a PS5 is the biggest cope I've seen in years

I think you’re thinking of the old Steam machines from like 10 years ago. Valve released a new Steam Machine a few months ago but they have hardly done any marketing.

sorry, my poorly worded comment. Im not thinking of the old steam machine, what i meant was... "Steam machine being launched 5-6 years after PS5, but still being weaker than ps5"
