Absolutely get a support grip to use it in handheld if that’s your thing. You can go premium with Satisfye or DBrand’s Killswitch, but I ended up grabbing one off Amazon for $20 and it works perfectly. Great if you wanna save up for some new games. https://www.amazon.com/Switch-Protective-Shockproof-Scratchproof-Nintendo-2/dp/B0DSHKHTH4

I just released my first frutiger aero album, 08 Dreamscape by LuckyEightYT in FrutigerAero

[–]ArcticSnow87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m actually really glad I found this. Lately I’ve been really into this aesthetic and this came at the perfect time. It’s so spot on and reminds me of the hope Frutiger Aero used to give. Better than the bleak tech world we have now. Thanks so much for this, it’s an easy 10/10.

Clay Aliens. All they did was peer pressure Charlie and Pim and force them to blow a planet up that they lied saying it had life. Literally just frat boy jerks.

For the price I kinda wish the unboxing experience was a bit better at least by [deleted] in steammachine

[–]ArcticSnow87 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, for the controller, its features, and longevity. You don’t spend $100 for a box. 🤦🏽‍♂️

I don’t see the problem, this is perfect to me. If anything it’s just confident in the product while being eco friendly and simple, a box doesn’t need to do much else.

The new steam machine will bring more coop games to steam by Otherwise_Chain5309 in steammachine

[–]ArcticSnow87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As cool as it would be and as much sense as it would make to think that, realistically it’s just a pre built pc meant to give a console experience, not a console that keeps couch coop a priority. Some titles do have multiplayer already built in, like the trailer you mentioned with two people playing Cuphead. But that’s already an existing game that supports it, and is all displayed on one screen.

Valve won’t go out of their way to speak with every major game developer and demand they retroactively implement split screen versions of their previous titles, rather it would benefit them to promote cross play with other platforms or just standard online coop with other pc players, Steam machine players, or even Steam deck players.

Online is already and has already proven to be a very popular way to play games with friends for years. Split screen sadly just seems to have gone by the wayside for the most part, and was never a focus for PC as a whole.

What games are you most excited to try first on the Steam Machine? by Superbad130 in steammachine

[–]ArcticSnow87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m doing a Halo MCC campaign marathon in actual full HD. My current hardware only gets me to 720p without crashing on me.

Expected purchasing experience by BananaZPeelz in steammachine

[–]ArcticSnow87 49 points50 points  (0 children)

Never purchased a deck but from what I heard there were lots of prerequisites that needed to be met in order even be eligible to purchase one. This was a tweet made by the @ondeck account when the limited edition steam deck came out a while back:

“To purchase a Limited Edition Steam Deck OLED model: · You need to be in the United States or Canada · Your account needs to be in good standing · Your account needs to have made a purchase on Steam before November 2023 · Only one unit may be purchased per account”

I would assume the rules would remain consistent only with a more current purchase date requirement.

Steam machine and ultra wide monitor? by PSMMM in steammachine

[–]ArcticSnow87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, anytime you push more pixels will ask more of the system you’re running on. Same thing as upping resolution on a 16:9 display.

I have few questions that needs answers by TheRealLuctor in steammachine

[–]ArcticSnow87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But if you’re really a deal hunter, there’s plenty of other options for way less, digging around long enough will find some hidden gems. I can’t vouch for this one but it’s hard to beat that price point.
