[QUOTE=redBadger;48325290]Like I said before, it's convenience and simplicity.
Just because it looks simple to you doesn't mean it's simple to most others.[/QUOTE]

there are prebuilt machines if you really have to go down the road. You don't HAVE to build your pc. Steam machines are just PC's that are simpler, you could buy this, slap windows 10 on it, or whatever you want, and it'd be easy.
the thing is too, is that they aren't that much more expensive than a console, but you can get the really high end builds of you want. It's self-budgeting.
Without exclusives, there REALLY isn't much market for consoles.

when it comes to steam machines you either pay a big sum of money for something that's crap or a huge sum of money for something that's less crap
A 450 dollar Steam machine won't perform as well as an XB1 or PS4
Sure, PC Gaming can be less expensive than console gaming in the long run, but for someone who's tech-illiterate and completely uninterested (lots and lots of people) , they're too much of a hassle to use and maintain, to claim that the only reason they still exist is exclusives is just stupid tbh
whats the point, just cut out the xbone and use an HDMI cable for your PC and TV

If you have the PC in one room, and the XB1 meant for exclusives in the living room?
And not everyone wants to have their PC in their livingroom, and not everyone wants a long HDMI cable to run from one room to another.
There's a reason why the previously mentioned 50 dollar Streambox exists, you know

Maybe today it won't. But XBone and PS4 hardware are already outclassed by high end hardware. In a few years, that high end hardware will be common and a 400 dollars Steam Machine will be destroying these two consoles.

Yeah, if you buy a 400 dollar machine in like 3-4 years it will outclass an XB1 or PS4. No shit?
Did you know that the 400 dollar 2019 PS5 will most likely outperform a current 400 dollar PS4?
