Agreed! Love mine too

Same, got it a week ago and I have no regrets. Almost got the Legion Go, but that would've been a pain when just looking for hassle-free gaming like with my ps5.

I’m getting a locked 90fps in apex, not 21-30 or whatever is said here

“BallDoor’s Gate” AI narration sucks.

I dont think thats how you pronounce "Baldur"

Why when you were showing Sons of the Forest halfway through you just started showing footage from The Forest

[@paulkendrick4153]

@@marcobrewmeister3366when is the switch 2 release if you know by chance?

[@ragamer314]

red dead redemption 2 should be verified on the steam deck

[@phantom-pr6op]

With Stardew Valley one reason I'd recommend playing on Steam Deck over say Switch is for the mods. There's also the latest update but that should come to console eventually.

[@maxsmith111]

too long

[@AWDTH1111]

Jedi Survivor?? That game isn't even playable on the Steam Deck. Even if you get it running, it will stutter, freeze and crash within 30 seconds.

[@lmnarutothelastairbender]

No effort was made in the making of this video, not even in the voiceover

[@PoorMansTech-t9y]

Only way I could get it to run was using windows but even the the performance was bad

I am convinced the way robot said Baldur

[@lucashaywardmusic578]

It's definitely ai voice. It said the resumé feature. What is my steam deck applying for jobs when I'm not around?

[@carlosmelendez8317]

I'd love to have Cyberpunk on Steam Deck but I got it on PS5 at Walmart for $5 back when everyone hated it. Glad I bought it and waited because now it's amazing.

“Ball Doors” Gate. 😂😂😂

Bruh that ‘proton’ logo is a Malaysian car brand💀

[@princebishonen]

Lol. Im quite shocked when i see the logo. Since when proton venture into gaming industry.😂

[@shibumae647]

Some of these games aren't even deck supported or at least require tinkering such as those using a Rockstar launcher i.e. GTA and RDR2 , sons of the forest is unsupported , I didn't even get to the end of the list before realising and why are all the handheld gameplay shots of the deck with Japanese (?) subtitles?

[@davidagiel8130]

I have most of them but haven't finished one of them, now I'm playing GOT and can't put it down.

[@paulkendrick4153]

Same here. This game is amazing and so good
