Rumored Valve "Steam Box" Console!

It could "revolutionize the PC Gaming industry" is what a lot of people are saying, but, will it really be that good?

Source - The Verge - states that Valve has shown potential partners a console that includes PC specs equivalent to an i7 processor, 8GB's of ram and a nvidia graphics card. While this doesn't give us much as to what it would be able to do, it is rumored to be "able to run any PC game available" while using a console style controller.

What does this mean to me?

Well, I think it means that it could be good in some ways and bad in others because it will simply be trying to combine the power of a PC and it's games while providing customers with a more relaxed and laid back gaming style of a PS3/Xbox 360 similar controller.

While not much information has been released and this is all just pure speculation, Valve has also rumored that they would be making their own brand name games platform similar to PS3/Xbox 360 and will be competing with other services on the same level.

What does everyone else think of this? Who knows, it's exciting to know that they were definitely thinking about it but it's also a bore that it's just a rumor. Stay tuned for more information regarding this!
