this channel has a lot of gameplay videos, this is FF7R running at 720p locked 30 fps


all in Proton OS (Linux) running emulations of DirectX/Win32 APIs, pretty neat

uhhhhgggg.

Playing FIFA games on my psp's for more than just a couple months would mean automatic thumbstick drift and eventual failure. It wasnt so much a defect like maybe this is, but any decent to heavy use on those things lead to wear and tear problems. From my eperience anyway. It only happened to PSP's that I played fifa on though, where you have to use thumbstick 100% of the time ur playing.

good channel of a dude showing games running on steam deck, including Origin / EGS and other Win10 games. I'm 99% likely at this point to keep mine when I can order, it looks like a neat toy and most of the initial problems like stick drift and store issues seem fixed. i'm sure in 2 years v2 will be way better and smaller but this seems good


also someone on reddit replaced the 64GB MMC with a 512GB NVME, takes like 15 mins apparently and super easy. the drives are like $50 on ebay so cheap too

Anyone here have it yet? The reviews I’ve seen would probably make me cancel it if I had preordered. Too expensive to be buying it to beta test imo. I’d wait for Deck 2 if it ever happens, or 1.5 at least.

I don't ever click videos where someone is holding something and making soy face. The content is always god awful and unwatchable.
