it's like the first time I listen to him, but the rumour is in some sites. It could be a reasonable rumour. Valve are the only ones that managed to console-rize a PC in an efficient and useful manner for now. MS had this in their hands but they don't see things coming.I like Bill, but he isn't super technical and he likes to speculate a bit. He's a genuine guy, though, and he has a pretty great podcast voice.
A rumour only need be started and it'll be parroted across the internet. These days even bots harvest and produce content. And if other people are stating it, website will feel the need to copy or they won't appear in search results.it's like the first time I listen to him, but the rumour is in some sites.

Millions of Windows users are gamers.
Plus Valve won't forget their roots and will let people use a computer like a computer, i.e. when you enter desktop mode on the Steam Deck.
You should keep listening to him, he has a pretty good show. He started out as a Nintendo focused podcaster, and his show was called Switchcraft, and he transitioned to being more of a general gaming podcast, called Games with Bill while he found his post-switch format until he settled on Nerd Nest, adding a couple of people to the show (it used to be mostly solo). After he moved away from Switch focused content, it was pretty clear he still enjoyed handhelds and he's covered most of the windows handhelds on his show, but keeps going back to the Steam Deck because of the overall experience. Handhelds (and portable devices like phones/tablets) are the real growth sector for games, and you aren't going to lear about the cache per CU of any of those devices, but you will get an informed opinion of how the user experience is from an enthusiast with a lot of handheld gaming experience. And also some semi-informed speculation.it's like the first time I listen to him, but the rumour is in some sites.
That's the thing, right? We've had plenty of HL3 leaks over the years, but....Whether Fremont is actually going to release as a 'console' is where speculation comes in at the moment.
