If it's cool I'll use it instead of the xbox controller. If not then whatever. Another 50 dollars wasted on trying something I guess.

You could've (and should've imho) spent that money on exactly 3.85 Amiiboes.

I sincerely love couchgaming and whatever gets the retarded PC gamers to give a shot is good i guess. But I can't shake the feeling that the ultimate fate of the steam controller is sharing a box with the e-Reader and nokia ngage.

I got laid shortly before the GBA SP was released, which is honestly hosed up for me to think about since I was 17 at the time and I fondly remember playing GBA SP.

it probably didnt help that they gut their hardware division for not accepting esports being too blue collar, and instead opted to let like 5 friggin companies thunderdome it out with their own gimpy looking pc's


i still want the controller to be good tho

it's not quite that it didn't work it's just that it doesn't work amazingly. it's serviceable and def better than a standard controller with xpadder for kb+m stuff. plus it's been like three days and it feels like one of thsoe things you have to adjust to to get the most out of it

yeah that's a big issue right now, some games don't have ui scaling that take into account if you sit far away. had to turn down the resolution on civ 5 to see what was happening

Turns out a friend of mine got one of these and I had a chance to try it out.

The two major things: I think the inward curve shape of the controller is really good, it keeps you from gripping the controller too hard and cramping your hands. But the front buttons are too small, they're like the size of 3DS buttons.

If they come out with a Steam Controller Version 2, I'll probably buy that.

Every time I turn my TV on it looks like mom's basement is being hailed by a Klingon bird-of-prey. The limiting factor for kb/m couch gaming is the fact Logitech refuse to make a wireless KB/trackpad combo where the keyboard end isn't a hate crime.

the one thing ive found is the best part of Steam Controller is if you put it up in your rear end, its tactile response vibrations feel great.

When I was 12 I bought Jeopardy! for the Nintendo 64 for my dad's birthday hoping for a similar bonding experience. He never played it with me a single time. Thanks for bad feels, oval office.

the settings button on my tv is going insane and changing sources constantly. i think it's haunted or something.

wireless kb+m are so good for everything but gaming because of input lag and sometimes dropped inputs

i got pretty far in dustforce with one but it wasn't good enough
