To all SSC Station occupants
Thank you for the donations over the past year (2024), it is much appreciated. I am still trying to figure out how to migrate the forums to another community software (probably phpbb) but in the meantime I have updated the forum software to the latest version. SSC has been around a while so their is some very long time members here still using the site, thanks for making SSC home and sorry I haven't been as vocal as I should be in the forums I will try to improve my posting frequency.
Thank you again to all of the members that do take the time to donate a little, it helps keep this station functioning on the outer reaches of space.

With PC component prices rising and rising people will probably gravitate more towards consoles since you can pick one up for $500-600 these days and a decent to good gfx card on NewEgg will run you over $1k 😉 So if Valve can make this happen slowly this can open up their market to even more millions and give current owners of steam accounts another option to play our game library.
In atalk at Sancta Maria Collegein Auckland, New Zealand this week, Newell wasasked by a studentif Steam would be porting games to consoles, to which the legendary developer hesistated, before saying, "You will have a better idea of that by the end of this year."
With the majority of games having controller support these days and with consoles running pretty much PC parts on the inside I don't think this will be difficult to pull off. Its whether Valve can work out fee agreements with Sony and Microsoft since Steam is a storefront and they would pull game profits from the console stores. So this will be interesting to see if it happens and if it does it will be great for gamers.
Looking forward to the end of the year 🙂
Might be some sort of streaming service?.
