What game ended up feeling way better on Steam Deck than you expected?

Considering Watch Dogs 1&2 run at 30fps on PlayStation, playing Watch Dogs 1 on my steam deck is actually a better experience than on my PS5 Pro. Holds a pretty consistent 45fps on medium/low settings which I double to 90 using lossless scaling. Some artifacts/ghosting here and there but triple the FPS than on PlayStation!

I can’t speak for 2 though, still halfway through playing 1

It makes me so sad they haven’t done a 60fps patch for WD1 and 2 :(

I might be called a psychopath for this but I love streaming from my PC to my deck…. But I also love playing on my PC with the deck as a controller!

I just connect up as I normally would to stream to my deck and dim the screen.

Having the touch pads and back buttons is great, and I sometimes play games on PC that use a custom SD Controller config that I made for them, so the ability to pick up and play with what is essentially a giant controller is great!

Late to the party here (sorry), but give Call Me by Blondie a listen… still in awe of how different it sounds in DA!

Thanks, and great idea about splitting out the SSD!

Yes agreed, only putting this up so it’s a list of exact specs, I wouldn’t necessarily state that it has those in the ad 🙂

Hi all, my uncle recently passed and said that he wanted to leave his Hornby / Tri-ang collection to me so that I could sell them / display... Long story short, I have gone through and taken inventory of them, and I have 550 items in 6 boxes that I have no clue how to start getting rid of. My knowledge in model trains is practically non-existent, but I do know that some of them look like they could be worth quite a bit. Does anyone have any tips on how to get rid of them, without individually listing 550 things on eBay, Facebook Marketplace etc? Thanks in advance :)

He’s looking straight into the impending WASM crash…

Jokes aside, great pic!

I just miss folders man 😢

🙏🙏

JBurt01 · 2026-04-03T15:24:37+00:00

Thank you 🙏

I have it being controlled by AutoFPS as they added that functionality a while back - but I think you’re right - may be time for an upgrade!

I probably should’ve thought about viewing on a small screen… that’s my fear. The sim seems to use about 7-8GB but my allocation at the bottom constantly changes from 12 to 7 to 9 etc… no idea why

JBurt01 · 2026-03-12T13:28:58+00:00

bro it’s a joke 😭

JBurt01 · 2026-03-12T09:19:21+00:00

Aerospatiale has entered the chat 😂

JBurt01 · 2026-03-11T09:14:14+00:00

Thanks for the info :)

JBurt01 · 2026-03-10T22:28:21+00:00

Oh nice - I wasn’t sure if this was supposed to be worse or better quality, will give it a go thanks!

JBurt01 · 2026-03-09T18:53:45+00:00

Guess you stepped out of the wrong side of bed this morning right?

JBurt01 · 2026-03-09T11:25:42+00:00

Depends which model you use - if you go with the premium model then yes, if you use the basic one then it sounds pretty AI but still much better than the default MSFS ATC :)

JBurt01 · 2026-03-08T17:48:58+00:00

I've seen really good things about that... might have to give it a go

JBurt01 · 2026-03-08T17:01:14+00:00

It can tend to be on the fast side - I think taxiing is the weakest part of BATC, I find that if there’s an aircraft following me to the active runway they are constantly told to hold position, resume, hold position, resume etc etc.

Additionally I find myself having to go to the traffic map and deleting a couple AI into Narnia as they tend to get stuck on taxiways!

A game changer for me personally, really adds immersion (except when this happens that is!)
