>She walks slowly on stage
>The crowd is silent and unsure

>Screens show "Valve"
>"There's always been a strong disconnect between PC and Console gaming. Many have tried to combine them, but they've never succeeded."
>"PC what the hell is going on?"
>"Just wait."
>"Linux has never been a target platform for gaming like Windows has been, but this will change over time."
>The crowd is chatting, questioning what's going on

>The crowd lightly cheers
>She turns to PC again
>He nods once more
>"Everyone, there's a Vive headset under your chairs, please take the time to put them on for the game preview. If you get light headed, do feel free to take it off, as we will have it on screen just in case."
>The crowd puts on their VR set and looks around

>The crowd roars
>Some even faint
>Xbone is watching in amazement
>PS4 is on the ground
>"I can't believe I lost E3..."
>PC, with arms crossed walks on stage

>Nothing can stop the crowd from losing their shit
>SteamBox and PC leave the stage as well as the event hall
>"You did well SteamBox. You truly are part of the master race."
>Back at the PC mansion

>SteamBox smiles
>"There were no survivors."
>They all laugh
>"It's been a long day for you SteamBox, feel free to take a rest if you need it. We'll be here emulating if you need us."
>She walks off to her room and lays down
>She stares at the ceiling for a while
>"I'm a console... But also a PC... Is the world ready for this?"
>Her power light makes a circle of light on the ceiling
>"I should learn what the other systems do to be sure I do my best."
>She turns on sleep mode and goes to bed
>The next day she wakes up and reads the news, and updates her packages
>"SteamBox ready for consumer market?" is the headline on one article
>"Half-Life 3 announced for PC and SteamBox, consumers unsure about having a PC in place of a console. Stock rates skyrocket, but skeptics are questioning the reason for this."
>SteamBox thinks for a little
>"I should talk to the others. I can't just be a PC, I have to be a PC and a Console. They're counting on me."
>She grabs her coat and changes her DE to hide from the press and makes her way pver to PS4's place
