Funny, juuuust when they limit the service to 100 hours monthly.

Boosteroid has Linux apps, too. Maybe not too elegant for the Deck…

Same. I mean… a positive second chance for me, because 20 something years ago setting up Wine to run Quake 3 was an afternoon’s effort, and absolutely not worth it lmao. Nowadays I know that I can just try a game, see if it works. Doesn’t? Let’s try again. Still nothing? Proton GE. Nothing? Ok, doesn’t actually work, unless there’s a solution on ProtonDB. 50/50 it’s anticheat.

Plus… it’s plain fun to get “unsupported” games and running them on the Steam Deck! Yeah, probably there’s a reason, but that time I played in VR using the Deck? Let’s call it perverse enjoyment.

It’s even more incredible if you consider what they came from, Joe Danger, to a large game. Being a fan of Joe Danger I didn’t fall for the hype, as it seemed way too ambitious of a game. And then? It’s 8 years of free updates adding content even beyond what was initially promised.

Aside from the over promising at the beginning, or rushing the game launch depending on how you want to see it, it’s really great stuff. I cannot think of any other game starting as overwhelming negative, forcing Sony to work proper refund systems, to absolutely beloved by everyone.

That or adding to all the games from the same publisher that are verified a badge meaning “has intentionally made become games unsupported in the past”

AND they like to yellow at the speed of light. My brother got a nice, transparent cover for his phone “it’s going to look awful in a few months” and sure enough a few months later he had a different one precisely because of that.

I fully expected this to be about Janeway, but alas.

Select is the one exclusive for Amazon, my understanding is that it’s meant to help with counterfeit ones, as only Amazon has them. Very good cards either way.

Not sure how it compares price wise right now, but look at the Amazon basics ones too: they’re made by the same company that bought Lexar and makes the emmc inside the 64gb Deck. Mine has been going strong for about a year now. Speed wise they’re essentially the same: the standard used in the Deck tops out at 104 megabytes per second, so any claims of extra speed are just marketing.

What is the deal with those Borg? They want to "assimilate". Fine! Come to earth, we have centuries of tv to show you! See how they'll run away then...

Yup, same reason why you can ask for a fox using a crocodile as a mech and get a good result. The model has the concept of all things requested and mixes them (with varying success).

Gummy gagh! By the looks of it, that one does spark joy.

#2 in Italy, 4.8 stars.

Honestly the reviews are a mix of 5 stars from 4 years ago and a 1 star from last year that seems to like the app but not the people... there's a virtually uninterrupted 1 star streak for the last year, but those 5 stars are the "most helpful" and show up at the top.
