Want A Steam Console?


Not talking about some steam punk device. But instead about a gaming console that solely runs Steam-based games, such as Portal, Left4Dead and Team Fortress. There's a rumor (is it confirmed yet?) that Steam is working on just such a device to enter into the gaming console market.

Would you buy one?

Personally, since I hate having a separate machine specifically for gaming, I'd pounce on one of these. L4D2 and Portal are two of my favorite games to play. And if I didn't have to keep up to date with a separate machine from my standard configuration (which runs Linux) then I'd be all for it.

Not that Steam doesn't already keep us happy with Xbox 360 versions of their games. But I'd definitely go for a Steam-specific console.
