I'm a little worried that Steam's consolization of the PC experience is going to influence how game developers design their UIs.
I find the newly unveiled Steam controller humorous because regardless of how well it works, how is anyone going to play something like Dragon Age (with its small but complex UI) on a traditionally sized HDTV based on average seating distance?
I'm afraid of developers simply developing a giant, dumbed-down UI and callling it a day because the greater powers suggest that playing PC games in the living room is actually progress.
