Was this week talking w/ Scott, Erik, Gabe about Steam Deck. Xbox head honcho Phil Spencer's quick review on Twitter also lent credibility, and a flurry of Game Pass related questions hit social media as he know doubt predicted. Emulation, a gaming agnostic operating system, cloud gaming support, and the ability to play games from multiple platforms like Epic and Origin all speak volumes for Valve's R&D. The truth is, when it comes to features, the Steam Deck has been designed as if gamers were in the room and providing their input. Speaking of the Steam games library - the Steam Deck has been confirmed as working with over 80% of titles, but PCGamesN have been testing and say only only 10% of the top 100 games are fully incompatible, with the rest working with varying amounts of success.
All this publicity has left consumers scratching their head when it comes to what the device is actually good for, besides the obvious Steam library goodness. A few have outright said that Valve's foray into mobile gaming in 2022 is going to be another Steam Machines debacle.įorums and gaming magazines have lit up with opposing views flying in at a rate of knots. Many journalists have slapped their Cynical Hat on and assumed Valve are selling the standard 64Gb Steam Deck at a loss to emulate Sony's business model. Let's take a moment to appreciate the confusion in and around the gaming media right now, and say thanks once again to Valve for providing the entertainment.
