Alienware-Steam-Machines-01

Alienware has earned their reputation as pioneers in the high-performance PC market, and is now looking to impact the industry once again in a partnership with Valve. At CES 2014, the two companies revealed the product of a four-year collaboration – the Alienware Steam Machine.

Its aesthetic is in keeping with the signature Alienware design-base, maintaining the build quality (since Dell became its parent company) the brand is known for. It features a custom-built chassis which provides optimal thermal and acoustic management and leaves an astonishingly small footprint. Frank Azor, Co-Founder and General Manager of Alienware, had the following to say about the future of gaming in the living room;

With the introduction of the X51 system nearly two years ago, Alienware kicked off an evolution of small form factor PC gaming systems designed for every living area. When Valve and Alienware began collaborating on our vision for a PC gaming console several years ago we could clearly see we were on to revolutionizing PC Gaming forever.

Gabe Newell, Founder of Valve, added;

We have been working with Alienware since we began defining our vision of the Steam Machine. Alienware’s historic commitment to gaming, their design and engineering capabilities and their global reach made them an ideal partner for us on our Steam Machine project. The result of our collaboration is the Alienware Steam Machine, a console that encapsulates the full potential of what a Steam Machine should be.

In addition to the Alienware Steam Machine PC gaming console, the Alienware X51 desktop will be available as a Steam Machine in 2014. What this means for players is that they will simply have options in form factor.

2K Sports Calls Its Baseball Franchise Quits

MLB-2k11-E-Longoria-Xenon

2K Sports, the folks behind the lauded NBA 2K14, have announced that they will no longer be in the pennant race after last year’s MLB 2K13 was critically panned (with a sub-50 Metacritic score).

Confirmation for the closure of the series came as the company was removing all traces of the brand from its websites. Given that the MLB 2K franchise was the only baseball franchise to appear outside of Sony’s own MLB: The Show, this news obviously calls in to question whether hardball fans will be able to get their fix on non-Sony hardware. 2K Sports has said the team will continue contributing to other titles, such as their flagship sports franchise, NBA 2K.
