sugarhigh 555 Posted June 19 Share Posted June 19 I personally hate detachable "joycons". I want a handheld to feel totally solid. The Go seems better and more durable than the Ally tho. You can get the SteamOS experience on non-Deck devices with Bazzite Linux: https://bazzite.gg/#image-picker I'm currently using this on my desktop in the living room to replace the PS5.

poopy_butt 11 Posted June 19 Share Posted June 19 i came really close to pukling the trigger this morning however i still havent received my pc so i feel like getting this will dampen the experience. howver fun fact i bitched at lenovo for failing to ship my computer yet so they took an extra 5% off which ended up being like 80 bucks which was nice.

Steam Deck is the best companion you can have as a PC gamer.. and I'll say that by the time the Steam Deck 2 releases, that will be the best handheld device in existence fullstop. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I stay away from soulless trash like starfield, which is a gimped RPG, in general. Link to post Share on other sites

They fixed it, but that sku is overpriced. $800 is just ridiculous especially when both the go and original ally are constantly on sale within the $500-$600 range 1 Link to post Share on other sites
