I'm not entirely sure but I'm personally going to watch it here http://live.theverge.com/valve-ces-2014-press-event-live-blog/

CES is usually to show off hardware/tech, but I'm crossing my fingers for a game announcement. I would totally jizz if it's HL3 or L4D3. I'm personally hoping it's L4D3 in the case that they do announce a game, but chances are very low that they do.

CES is an electronics show not a games show, they're not screwing anything up.

Daddy Gaben is the ultimate troll because he also said he wouldn't announce HL3 until they have a solid release date.

Well judging by the live blog they're already finished so maybe that's why they didn't stream it. And this is completely different to the PS4 or the Xbox One announcement, it's not some flashy event they're literally just showing off a few of the machines their partners have made.

Ether way it was not much of a conference, so screw up on screw up. If they want to compete with Sony and MS they need to build good old console platfrom hype and they wont do that this way. I hope they will do better at E3...

Seems like you were expecting too much at a pre-ces blog bro... The main event doesnt start til tomorrow. CES officially kicks off tomorrow. They said they have more in store for when CES officially kicks off. They showed off the steam machine, talked about the controller and that you can buy it separately, and gave out some quick online facts about more users than MS and Sony. What more did you expect from a pre-game teaser conference?

You know that E3 conferences are day before E3 starts, and no body call those events a "pre-game teaser conferences". Look on other conferences that been today, they are full blown with annoucments,

Nvidia did one yestoday and all they talked about gaming and graphics, streamed and everyone to watch, 2 days before CES started....

Again, if Valve want to compite with Sony and MS and even Nintendo,they need hype then need events when everyone can see and build up hype. So far they have yet another branded PC console approach which won't get any console gamers.

But ok thats just CES, i hope they do better on E3.... they need to be loud on E3 or else it will be game over

@SEANMCAD: As i understand those devices suppose to steal some console gamers to PC market, some even think it suppose to destroy consoles all together (The Tek :p), as PC gamers don't like the idea as they are addicted to overclocked toasters, so i don't think there any other motivation.

So then ask console gamer if he considers Steam Machine.... if he even knows about it :p

If they be idle in E3, Sony and MS will over dominate them in press... over dominate it in System Wars

To quote Gabe 'steam has 65 million users Xbox One currently has 3 million'

I dont know if they have explicitly said they are targeting the current console users. I do know that they have explicitly said they are trying to bring the PC to the living room. I have heard Gabe say he is concerned about the decline in the PC market though which could be taken in two different ways

Guess what gamers plays majority of there games in living room..... console gamers. In order to dominale living room then need to dominate console gamers. In order to dominate console gamers they need to throw away Playstation and Xbox that dominates there minds out of there heads and so far there 0 efford to do so. As long as xbox and playstation is in there hand as long they wont see steam machines, for them it's just yet another branded console PC, which is nothing new and fails every time (ironically lot od Steam Machines that Gaben shown on that even are already existing products with steam logo on it).

I think you are not blind to see hope console marketing looks like, what makes hype for console, what makes console market and so far i don't see efford from Valve to meet a challenge effords of big trio in this market. As long they won't able to do that as long they won't get a spot light. Casuals won't save them..... they already got there media players and there tablet games integrated in TV, they don't need another box... if they want better games they will buy PS4 or Xbox One as you can see them everywhere + they get some exclusive games that you won't be able to play on PC.

Again, if they want to compete with consoles fo space in living room, they need to compete like it is console, other wise as some guy on Verge said, it's all looks effortless and won't have any effect compared to competition.... it didn't have any effect as again, console PCs is nothing new.

But hey i aggre this is CES and it not much of the battlefield (but compation did need any event to build up hype... even Ouya, speaking of which this thing made more hype then Steam Machines did so far), but on E3 in mecca of console gaming where PC gaming is practically invisible (and by that i mean is there but no body notice it), if they won't show up with the bigs guns there, Hermits can forget of doom of consoles or else console market will destroy itself.

As a extra chekc comment section of this video and see what gamers things about Steam Machine right now:
