If they're selling this for more than 300 bucks they're doing consoles wrong. |

I understand how it isn't the same, my point is it is technically a multi-platform console game as well. xD That could have chosen a PC+Steam only game. |

http://www.theverge.com/2013/1/8/3852144/gabe-newell-interview-steam-box-future-of-gaming Oh hey, an interview with Gabe Newell, including many bits about the Steam Box. Particular interesting part: I guess it will work as a sort of Sonos for games, you will be able to stream from a pc, as well as run games from it. |

Will you be able to run games that aren't on steam with it? |

Considering you can just run those normally on your PC or console, and that the supposed Steam-Box is optimized for Steam, probably not. You're asking to run standard PC games on a mini-PC/console specifically made to run Steam and Steam-based (most likely only Valve games at this point) games. You might as well ask Valve to put together a normal size gaming PC, slap some steam logo stickers on it, and install Windows 7 64-bit with the steam logo as the wallpaper. |
