    Hrmm...today isn't April 1, is it? It's not...so....I got to sit in on some talks about this last E3 with some 3rd party pub execs but no one thought Valve was, you know, for serious.

    But here we are with it getting into the rumor press. Kind of an interesting idea even if it is just total bullshit. [Blocked Image: https://migrationtest.mapcore.org/public/style_emoticons/default/mapcore_smilies/emot_shakehead.gif]

    But what if it is not?

    or is...

    Could be awesome for console gaming. This is some sort of weird combination of PC/console gaming... I wonder what Dux's views will be. Will his mind explode?

    So maybe this is the E3 thing that was supposed to surprise us?

    At E3 Valve will only have a business booth, no Press conference and no nothing is scheduled so far.

    Well, they are going to announce something with a three in it. But then again it's just probably a part of Valve's epic troll-streak.

    Wouldn't mind if it was the first title to accompany the shiny little box.

    Ever thought about announcing the "E3 Dota 2 update Nr 1"?

    I really like this idea. Maybe Steam could be the "android" of tv's? Loads of tv's comes with a cpu and graphics controller these days.

    I hope so. Valve said they wouldn't unless they can make the common AI super fancy, but that's retarded, common are just set dressing, that'd be a total waste of resources. They should instead focus on remaking the ruleset from the ground up to shake off the esports serious business shithead behavior the vs modes have universally attracted. Maybe some prettier gore effects and more levels, too.
