Edit: fixed the title to match the article, I wrongly stated that Valve said the price was supposed to be $750, when that's just IGN's estimate base on Valve's statements.

don't editorialize the title please. valve didn't say this, this is just one ign writer's speculation based on a very vague answer ("probably similar"). the said writer, btw, can't even do simple math...

Kinda an accident to be honest, the article title is "The Steam Machine Was Originally Meant to Cost About $750", but when I submitted it to Lemmy, the default title for the URL was instead ”Valve Says the Steam Machine Saw a Similar Price Increase as the Steam Deck...”, so I tried to change it back to the actual article title from memory. I was on my phone at the time, so I didn't double check the title as I should have.

I'll fix it now.
