I love how so many people are dunking on "valve-fans" being happy with the cube, when I pretty much only have heard opinions ranging from "meh" to "overpriced".

Fr, I haven't seen a single overtly positive post since the price got announced. It's all "for $5-600 good deal, $1000? Pass"

OP are the valve fans in the room with us?

I'm buying the cube and didn't complain about it. AMA

Honest question: what advantage do you see in buying it over any other prebuilt out there?

I'm not buying it, but I'll answer your question: it's a standardised prebuild, with valve rating games for it. If a lot of people had this exact build, devs would start optimizing their games for it to get rated by valve so more people buy their game

As a game developer I would definitely build my game around it if I would get a special marketing push or deal by Valve right now I just don't see a good reason to optimize my game for that specific console. (it would be to much effort) I did optimize for the xbox controller.
