While this is good I agree with a previous point that they should also focus on having the interface and text legible on both small devices (Steam Deck) AND the ten foot TV setup (Steam Machine).
News - GPD claim the WIN 5 is getting an official Bazzite Linux adaptation but the Bazzite team say otherwise

Maybe they meant "official" as in they will do it themselves? And a "Bazzite rep" as in the person at their company that will be responsible for this project.
Either way, GPD is SO. DAMN. EXPENSIVE.
You can get Steam Deck or even the darn ROG Ally for a fraction of the price of a GPD device.

I mean... they called it WIN 5... 😁
I guess the devs are okay, but the marketing dudes use too much powdered substances.
I really wonder who would fall for this. They need TrumpOS for their customers.

the game will crash randomly(depending on how much ram you have and other things).
Hense the bad reviews on Steam.

Quoting: scaineJC3 came out in 2015, which makes me feel old.The only Just Cause that's good is 2! 3-4 is especially bad thy have an engine memory leak that thy never fixed.
Considered picking this up to try out the latest one, which came out in 2018... but it's encumbered with Denuvo. Oh well.

Quoting: Doktor-MandrakeI picked up the LCD model over Christmas and been struggling to put it down, definitely want to get an oled model in the futureI'm going to buy a new controller when they're released for sure. I don't need the Steam Machine even though I think it's a very cool SFF PC... Hopefully Valve can get a good deal on RAM since they are bulk ordering and it doesn't affect the overall price too much.
I am concerned the steam machine won't be as successful
It's going to be tough on valve releasing new hardware with the current climate, but I hope both the MACHINE and the frame will bring them good fortune because they both look cool
I will be getting one of those new steam controllers though, least I can afford that lol

I'm just under 100hrs in and am still loving it! My blueprint hunt has been very weird. I only have the weirdest stuff, none of the guns and parts that are helpful.😅
Hopefully, Embark gets to be the next poster child studio for Valve and the Steam Machine.

I can't believe they keep adding accessibility options. I'm serious; most companies would have given up by now, but somehow Valve keeps impressing me with how many they continue to add.

My 5950X is still running fine for now, so no, won't be upgrading. If it decides to fry a core, like my previous 5950X did (right after the warranty expired), than maybe, but hopefully that won't be for a while.

Well just one word: AI. They going to fire a lot of people and let AI rehash the above mentioned games and add a new number behind it.The irony in Ubisoft's case is that AI probably would make better games than them...

I wonder if the new Microprose has any interest in publishing Civ I & II -- assuming that it's them who own the rights. All the Firaxis/2K Civs are 'in print', while the Microprose Civs (I & II) are lost altogether.

GPD is a very annoying company. They have a staff member called '不是很野蛮' (Not Very Savage) on China's BILIBILI video site. After the Steam Deck was announced in 2022, every video title this person published had to include SteamOS, but in a mocking way. The content would compare how terrible SteamOS is and how good Windows is. Later, an official staff member from Lenovo's Legion GO was communicating with Valve, and said that someone was fired and Lenovo's SteamOS adaptation was discontinued. However, Lenovo's staff member clarified that it was just a normal resignation, and the company's SteamOS adaptation plan is still ongoing. This person called '不是很野蛮' is quite famous in China's handheld gaming community. He has an optimized version of Windows that is said to have very good support for controllers and sleep mode.

Quoting: hell0That aside, the Fable reboot is developed by the same guys as Forza (at least those that weren't fired) and will use the same engine. Sounds odd to me but we'll see.Fast Traveling in the new Fable involves an F40, so makes sense 😇
The trend to "reboot" franchises needs to die already. At this point, it's just a lazy attempt to capitalise on nostalgia for a past success.And that is exactly the sad reason that is never going to stop, it's simple, easy, cheap and in a few years will be mostly AI work retouching games for re-releases
