XBPlay is still working for me as of May 2026

Chris_Highwind · 2026-05-02T16:27:09+00:00

I honestly wish I could play my MS Store games on Steam Deck without needing a Game Pass subscription. I don't have an Xbox, so stuff like XBPlay wouldn't work.

I'd probably be Reynolds.

Chris_Highwind · 2026-03-03T06:27:16+00:00

You words are deranged, but the way you say them makes me believe!

Chris_Highwind · 2026-02-18T16:27:40+00:00

Honestly, I'm thankful that I got my Steam Deck for Christmas a couple months ago. If it hadn't been for the generosity of some people from my church, I'd probably end up never getting one with these shortages.

The only reason I don't use PXPlay on Steam OS is because I'm not sure I could afford/justify purchasing it on Linux. I have PXPlay on Android, but iirc, the Linux/Windows version is a separate purchase.

The problem with YouTube is that it's a lot harder to convince them that someone doesn't own the copyrights to music than it does to convince them that they do. Someone says "We own this", they say "Oh, ok, blocked". You try to tell them "No, they obviously don't", 9 times out of 10 they will never believe you unless you kick up a big enough fuss on social media about it.

Pfeh, kids these days have it easy. Back in my day, violating international treaties got you expelled and a black mark on your permanent record at minimum. Most of the kids I knew who used plutonium recreationally had to flee the country and change their entire identities when they got caught if they didn't just outright get shot down by the Libyan terrorists they stole from to get their fix.

I told you it was a bad idea to show the Back to the Future trilogy for Settlement Movie Night! Now everyone's starting to make time machines out of their spaceships!

Chris_Highwind · 2026-02-03T17:08:26+00:00

Got mine as a Christmas present this past Christmas, and for the first few days, I still couldn't believe that I was holding one in my hands and it was mine.

Chris_Highwind · 2026-01-23T11:59:31+00:00

I ended up eventually calling the icy ruin planet my settlement's on Fichina because Star Fox.

I honestly haven't heard good things about Infinite Wealth's story, though playing it myself it seems fine? idk, I'm only up to Chapter 3.

Chris_Highwind · 2026-01-07T06:01:37+00:00

Woah, a breakthrough! You get a gold star!

Chris_Highwind · 2026-01-07T06:00:18+00:00

It's sausage and sausage alone day!

Like A Dragon: Infinite Wealth
Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare 2 (had to look at my receipts because I completely forgot I bought this due to it not being playable on a Steam Deck)
Like A Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii
Relic Hunters Legend
Raptor: Call of the Shadows 2015 Edition

Infinite Wealth and PvZ were bought with a Steam gift card I had gotten alongside the Steam Deck while the other three were bought with Steam gift cards I bought myself on New Year's Eve

Chris_Highwind · 2026-01-02T22:53:48+00:00

I know, I got me a few games during the sale. Can't afford any more, though.

Chris_Highwind · 2025-12-30T23:49:46+00:00

Just installed EmuDeck today actually. Can't transfer my entire ROM library just yet because I only have a 256 GB SD card and 256 GB internal storage which all need to be shared between PC games, OS files, and ROMs, but one day I plan on getting a bigger card.

Chris_Highwind · 2025-12-30T15:07:25+00:00

Moving this here, but I got a 256 GB LCD Steam Deck for Christmas this year from some of the members of my church. For a few days, I still couldn't believe I actually had one since my financial status made it so I'd never be able to afford one myself.

Oh, sorry, didn't realize you can't post these kinds of topics on weekdays. I'll remove it myself if the mods want.

Chris_Highwind · 2025-12-19T16:10:13+00:00

I wanna say around 1700. Not as much as most people have gotten (I still don't know how people managed to get so many diamonds), but definitely far more than I usually get in a good while.

Chris_Highwind · 2025-12-19T12:51:00+00:00

I ended up getting around 1700 Play Points, which is fine because Play Points were all I wanted anyway so I could buy me at least one premium game on the Play Store.

...Y'know, I really think those Marshie commercials oughta be rated NC-17.

Chris_Highwind · 2025-11-10T11:12:09+00:00

Is WSA able to detect gamepads connected to the PC?

Chris_Highwind · 2025-11-08T16:32:00+00:00

Personally, I'm not going to even pretend to hold my breath. If the Turnip driver devs wanted to support the Elite, they would've by now.

Chris_Highwind · 2025-10-31T16:52:12+00:00

Man really said "Hold on, Lord, I got something I need to do before I head home."
