Interesting, so you will be able to play full steam games on this?

Refuse to click anything kotaku. What is this handheld even aimed at? Is it supposed to be after the idiots who supported Ouya? This whole concept is just hilarious.

Doesn't look very mobile. It's like a 360 controller with a screen on it.

Wouldn't you rather just play your actual console or computer at this point?

I lol'd


Edit: This will bomb no matter what but the price will depend on how hard it will fall. I'm assuming it will be in the $250-300 range in which case it will be discontinued before 2013 is up. If they somehow manage to make it less than $200 it might sell half as well as Vita did.

I'm really interested to see how this plays out. They're targeting Q2 of this year too. This'll be good.

You forget Ouya. I'd laugh if Apple actually ended up announcing a console.

Project Shield



Sounds like the code name for a condom... 

that said... if it can stream PC games over the internet from your PC. That would be very kool... and if it comes with a option to play over phone net works..

That could gain some traction... as a handheld...

"Evil People Suck"
Xbox One and gaming don't belong in the same sentence.

I'm aroused. Sign me up for 5. Good thing I didn't buy a junk 360 controller for my PC.

I'm still kinda lost. 
You can only play games on it if your pc is on?
