Yes HDMI forum are shitbags, but there are definitely technical advantages to HDMI. Just that I can think of, DisplayPort doesn’t have ARC (audio return for sound systems), or CEC (device can turn on TV/display, TV remote can pause movie playing on console, etc) and the max length for a DisplayPort cable is no more than 3 meters before you have to go to expensive active cables. Most of these are easy to work around for most PC setups, but if Valve wants the gabecube to easily fit into living room/TV setups, it does present a challenge.
No, not trolling. I’d never heard that they had a policy against it until I looked it up just now.
Somehow I was under the impression that devs didn’t even get a say as to if or when Steam would put their games on sale. I thought I had heard that as a major gripe of devs who list games on Steam.
Now I’ll have to decide when I feel like it’s worth the remainder of my life and $35.
Yup, I’m super tempted to start stocking up on cheap VR games in anticipation for the Frame, but I need to see the final price and be 100% sure I’m going for it before I commit to games that I can’t otherwise play.
