That's not a pc and doesn't even come close to the performance a pc can have.
Ok, let's go over what I said.

On the go pc gaming with perhaps decent framerate for some games.

Now, I'm looking at this here quote, and no where did I explicitly say the Steamboy was a pc. I said pc gaming as the games on the Steamboy would ultimately be, you guessed it, pc games.

As for your other statement I have no earthly clue why you said it, I assume to solidify your argument that the Steamboy could never be used for pc gaming as performance now is the means of identifying whether you are playing on a console or a pc, not the actual hardware that is 8 inches from your face.

So thank you sir for your valued insight on whether or not the Steamboy is a personal computer.

"on the go pc gaming" does not exist. If anything, it's "on the go gaming".

What the flying forget is a laptop then?

All of this is ridiculous, I don't know what point you're trying to get across, but my excitement to play or stream games from my loving PC on a mobile dedicated gaming device was all I was trying to get across in that post.

Is this a laptop? Doesn't look like it.

Let me shove the context in your face.

this is slightly less awesome with the realization that blockland is not supported on Linux and steam machines run on Linux so no playing on the go w/o streaming
Why would you want to play Blockland on this anyways? With so many controls you pretty much need a keyboard.



@ all the "this isnt a pc its not pc gaming!!!!"
That's not the point. This thing plays PC games.

Problem with that is how the forget do you hold it to use the touch screen?

Also, you can't play pc games on it unless you stream it. It plays android games independently.

nVidia Shield:
Only plays android on it's own.
Streams any PC game.

Steamboy:
Only plays Linux Steam games on it's own.
Streams any Steam PC game.

Those "disgusting disc things" are what allow you to actually play on-par competitively.
And are you comfortable while you're playing on-par?

Not sure, haven't had any personal experience.

What I will say though, is that using your beloved thumbsticks in a PC gamer environment will just get you killed in most cases.

I just don't see how sliding your thumbs around on a bumpy surface is gonna provide any sort of advantage or comfort.
