  • Abstract:  Despite warnings of headaches, square eyes or worse, PC gamers the world over get their gaming kicks just a few feet from a monitor, huddled over the keyboard with their trusty mouse in tow.But with the new Steam Controller, Valve wants you to ditch the o...

  • Abstract:  We first saw Valve's Steam Controller way back in September 2013.Now there are just a few months before it replaces the classic keyboard and mouse PC gaming combo, or is unceremoniously shunned by traditionalists everywhere. Either way, we've got our swea...

  • Precise, Highly customizable, Find the best control schemes on Steam
  • For some genres, not on par with mouse and keyboard
  • Update: we've seen the latest version of Valve's Steam Controller at GDC 2014, and have updated this article with our impressions. Scroll down to see our original hands on from CES 2014. What's the biggest barrier keeping PC gaming out of the living room?...

  • The Valve Steam controller is without doubt attempting another evolutionary step in the control cycle, like the joystick to D-pad and D-pad to dual analogue sticks before it, and as such can seem a bit of a shock to the system. This isn't a slight tweak...

  • Touchpads add a new dimension, Able to play strategy games, Soild buttons and analogue stick
  • Not as precise as a mouse and keyboard, Tiring during long gaming stints, Small buttons, Lack of community-made control schemes
  • Undoubtedly a feature-packed and robust gamepad, the Steam Controller just doesn't excel in any one arena and is a bit too big and awkward to be comfortable in my hands...

  • Abstract:  I've always liked the ideas behind the Steam Controller and the Steam Link. The former is a bold attempt at combining the two forms on input that games take right now – in trying to make a controller with the accuracy of a mouse and keyboard. The two odd-...

  • Como una solución para concentrar en un solo mando todas las posibles combinaciones de controles existentes en la PC, no se puede clasificar al Steam Controller como un éxito, ni tampoco como un fracaso.  La realidad es que en la ejecución no logra confor...

  • Presenta novedades en un mercado algo estancado”, Dos trackpads totalmente configurables, Infinitas posibilidades de configuración en general, Perfiles de controles en línea para los juegos
  • Precio algo elevado, No termina de sustituir al teclado y ratón
  • En definitiva, el Steam Controller es una alternativa sensacional para los que buscan un controlador para el PC y el joystick de los de Xbox / PlayStation no les termina de convencer. Personadamente, el trackpad me parece una opción mucho más precisa y se...
