Also, a 2.5" SATA drive is about the size of an iPhone 5. Yea, so it would be about the size of a Wii regular then. That solves the portability portion. Anyways, at max, it would be the size of a 17" monitor, which isnt that big RE: The first Steam Box revealed. - Prince - 03-02-2013 (03-02-2013, 06:59 PM)ABC Wrote: Yea, so it would be about the size of a Wii regular then.

Now, compare that to all the stuff needed in order to make a console, well, a console. It'd be close to 23", maybe even 32".

The PS4 I'm guessing will be around the same size as the PS3 Super-Slim, well I'm hoping that it will be, even if they have to use all of this mechanical disk drive bollocks.

Honestly, I'm trying to chose between Steam Box and PS4. Its SOOO hard to chose, even though one isn't even out yet.

I cant wait to see what Microsoft have to bring to the table, that will change everything; I wouldn't make a decision yet if I was you.

Its somewhat obvious that Microsoft is going to try to top Sony, but that's going to be hard considering the amount of crazy new things they have implemented into the PS4.

I have a feeling that Microsoft are going to implement everything to work well with Windows 8, so that it encourages people to use them both together.

Sadly, I have to agree. Windows 8 is the WORST software they have made in a LOOONG ass time. |
