Only valve has the balls to try some innovation like this. Not sure how it will work, but it could be brilliant, or fail. I wouldn't count valve out. Typical people judging too quickly.

Funny how innovation is ballsy when it comes from other than M$.  M$ tried to go digital like Steam and it was the end of gaming.  Now Steam launches a controller to go with their steam machine, it it's ballsy?

 

Are you implying that MS trying to go digital like steam was being innovative?

Innovative for console games apparently.  Just like steam controller is innovative for what?
