so i just heard that the new steam controller is going to be $99, and i have to say, i'm a bit surprised. i mean, i knew it was going to be a bit pricey, but that's even more than i expected. i've been following the news about it for a while now, and i was really hoping it would be more around $60 or $80.



i think what's going on here is that valve had some unexpected costs that made the price go up. one of the designers, lawrence yang, mentioned that the price has gone up from what they originally wanted it to be. and it's not just that - the price is also going to vary depending on where you live, because of things like import fees and taxes. so, if you're planning to get one, be prepared for the price to be a bit different depending on your location.



i have to admit, $99 is a bit steep for a controller, especially when you can get some really cool ones for less than $30. but, the steam controller does have some pretty unique features that set it apart from other controllers. it's got a ton of pc functionality, and it can do some really cool things that other controllers can't. for example, it has gyro control, which is something i never thought i'd use on my pc, but now i'm kinda excited to try it out.



i'm not sure if the price is going to be a deal-breaker for most people, though. i mean, if you're really into pc gaming and you want a controller that can do it all, then the steam controller might be worth the investment. and, let's be real, valve is a pretty popular brand, so i'm sure a lot of people are goingRead more: Full article on www.pcgamer.com
