Current Events > Got a steam deck! Any games to keep an eye on?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Should be getting it tomorrow and I'm planning on getting started out with the Batman Asylum games which I got on a humble bundle last week.

Gonna also get back into counterstrike. Haven't played that in like 10 years. I'll be docking it and using a mouse and keyboard for this.

Getting excited. I didn't game for years until I got into Stadia last year. But when Stadia got canceled back in Jan, I haven't played anything since then.

1st games i played on my steamdeck were the telltale games: the walking dead, back to the future, & wolf among us... while playing those games i was also playing that steamdeck game you can get (forgot what its called). another telltale game i have installed, not played yet is guardians of the galaxy.

Im still playing the back to the future series. I usually play when i travel and if i have the time to take the steam deck out. I too dock it at the hotel & use the tv hdmi with my ps4 controller & bluetooth keyboard (the mobile kind). Yeah i have a small gym bag i use for the mobile accessories i have to lug around the powersupply, hdmi cable, ps4 controller with case, steam deck with case, steam deck dock, and my phones usb c with charger.

The great on steam deck list is pretty good. I picked up disco elysium during its price drop. I got kingdom come deliverance, dragons dogma dark arisen, hades, project zombie, tomb raider, just cause series, jedi fallen order (from steam), & resident evil 2 ready to play whenever. Actually got the capcom and sega arcade games installed as well.

Ive played laying down and dropped the steamdeck on my face. Im worried about dropping it again so i just dock it or play sitting nowadays lol

Be prepared to dial down fps and graphics settings for some games. Also check out emudeck if that's your thing.

Marvel Spiderman plays very well

PS2 Emulator and Dragon Ball Z Budokai Tenkaichi 3 is also very good

I'll probably get into some emulators for sure.

I think I have my expectations set correctly for it. I'm mainly going to be catching up on older games.

Ouch lol.
Do you find it pretty comfortable to hold in general?

project zomboid

I have one I've had for a while but I haven't touched it much lately. But I get the dock tomorrow. I finally ordered one, after originally not thinking I would need it. I'm gonna try to play World of Warcraft on it. My laptop died and my wi fi sucks for mmos. I need the dock to add a wired connection

Anyway, I bring it up just to let you know it's possible to add non steam games to it. I had to look up a guide on how to install battlenet to steam but I got it done last night
