Valve demonstrates Steam Controller in new video

4.5
Valve issued a video demonstrating its Steam Controller today. The game pad, which features two track pads in lieu of joysticks, is used for its series of Steam Machines, announced in September.

The controller shown in the video isn't final hardware, but rather a prototype controller lacking a touchscreen to be included in Valve's hardware beta program. Among the developers that have seen the controller, Super Meat Boy developer Team Meat said it was able to execute some of the game's more demanding moves on the pad.

Third_Eye Seems like the kinda product you really gotta try for yourself to understand and judge. I wonder how it feels to play a shooter like CoD being that it mimics the way a mouse works. Probably gonna cost like $50 tho


That sounds like the price, and I think it will be bad for FPS MP games
