Valve has packed the new Steam Controller with multiple ways to control a PC game from the comfort of your sofa. It has standard thumbsticks (phew), a pair of trackpads, and gyro controls. Three for the price of… well, we don’t know the price of the Steam Controller yet. Though I hadn’t considered gyro controls…
When the Commodore 64 was still being produced, arcade boards were much more advanced. This made bringing popular, current arcade games home to the 8-bit home system a challenge at the best of times. Even though concessions would be made to bring them home successfully, many versions were often good in their own right. But…
What was the standard once is the past now. Evolution brings change in any field, and game development is not exempt. The fast pace of our world dictates that game developments follow.

On the face of it, the latest announcement from Valve seems pretty straightforward. The reductionists will tell you all it’s unveiled is a last-gen gaming PC (that better be cheap), a controller that’s just two halves of a Steam Deck jammed together (like all the mockups that have been doing the rounds since the handheld…
The Valve Index is a popular headset by most measures, currently used by roughly 15% of players on Steam to play VR. So why is it Valve has killed the Index branding entirely with its latest arrival, a new VR headset called the Steam Frame? Turns out, it’s exactly because Valve doesn’t want that sense…
