I spent way too much time playing XCOM this weekend. Fun as hell, though I'm not sure if it will have any replay value for me.

Regarding ESO, my hope at this point is that its semi-success or outright failure won't bury Bethesda. I will be really disappointed if we don't get a Fallout 4 or an Elder Scrolls 6 because they killed their company with an MMO.

I don't expect to pick up a steam machine for the same reason I don't already own a console. My PC works just fine for pretty much anything I want to play. Its goal is definitely to pull console gamers over to the light side, but I don't know how much of a success it will be.
