Steam Machine vs. Xbox Project Helix

[u/cian_pike01]

I’m gonna post it in here after the mods in the Steam Machine subreddit deleted my previous post (although it had plenty of engagement & discussion between people).

Is anybody else willing to wait for both Xbox Project Helix AND the Steam Machine to be released into the market to compare and contrast?

I imagine the Steam Machine specs just won’t be worth it in terms of value for money in comparison to the next-gen Xbox console?

I understand the simplicity of just turning on the machine and having Steam at our fingertips but if it’s as easy as downloading the Steam app on the next-gen Xbox, signing in and playing games then 🤷‍♂️

Steam machine: if it were a steam deck without a screen (same hardware, just cheaper because it doesnt have a screen) would be a killer product.

As is its basically useless…
