When I tried Half-Life: Alyx streaming from a PC to Valve's new Steam Frame VR headset, I was blown away; thanks to the Frame's dedicated wireless adapter and a cool trick Valve calls "foveated streaming," I didn't detect any latency as I explored an industrial building and fought some head crabs. But the Frame also has an Arm chip inside, meaning it can run games locally.
Yesterday, Valve announced three (3) hardware products: a Steam Machine console, an accompanying Steam Controller and the long-rumored Steam Frame VR headset. This hardware, along with the excellent Steam Deck, gives Valve a pretty comprehensive way to get people playing games wherever they want, on any sort of screen. And, of course, the games are what this is all about. Steam's catalog is impossibly vast, encompassing every genre you can imagine - but there's still one crucial title missing from the thousands of games available.
