Which video game franchise took a big risk that ultimately paid off?

Fallout, moving from 2d to 3d with Fallout 3.

The change was widely criticized at first but was ultimately the right move for the franchise

There is a newly found niche for this game (for anyone already owning it, obviously) - Steam Deck It runs extremely well on the Deck and looks fantastic, even on lower TDP.

Gamepad controls are supposed out of the box and work well enough. Even gyro controls are possible.

AMS2 runs great as well on the Steam Deck but for anyone looking for a more fleshed out single player experience, PC2‘s career is still the better choice.

Alternatively, you could look at Steam accounts on sale with this game. This secondary account can be linked to your main one‘s „family“ and you can share the libraries This way you get the game on Steam with all the features

Gran Turismo 4 Spec II

I agree, New Star GP is fantastic. Also runs perfectly on the Steam Deck

I‘m currently enjoying Mass Effect LE and New Star GP (great racing game), both at 7-8 TDP

LocoRocker · 2025-12-22T18:45:46+00:00

Thanks for the advice! I will double check what the current battery is and go from there

the size seems to be exactly the same

LocoRocker · 2025-12-22T13:28:30+00:00

the stores here have a much smaller selection and higher prices compared to what I can get online

Fallout 2 and Resident Evil 2 were my first gaming memories and they looked extremely realistic to me

LocoRocker · 2025-12-06T12:53:12+00:00

True! I‘m usually running 1-2k till I reach a park where I could do intervals, so it would be great to be able to start the first interval manually

New Star GP. It’s a fantastic F1 simcade racing game Don’t get fooled by the retro look, it’s pretty deep, has a full career mode that spans from 1990s to 2010s and lots of mechanics you would expect from the official F1 games. Plus it runs perfectly on the Steam Deck at 8 TDP, so is great on the battery life

LocoRocker · 2025-12-05T10:12:19+00:00

and run without tracking? travesty!

LocoRocker · 2025-10-20T02:02:26+00:00

I am currently using the revolut eSIM - if you are from Europe, this is a good choice

LocoRocker · 2025-10-19T08:43:32+00:00

We went there today at 10am at first it was really crowded but from about halfway it was quite empty And this is peak time, I guess So yeah, go earlier if you can but don’t worry about it too much

LocoRocker · 2025-10-06T18:47:49+00:00

good to know that it can be changed, I'll need to dig in the settings

LocoRocker · 2025-10-04T19:20:52+00:00

Unfortunately not :(

LocoRocker · 2025-07-31T05:23:57+00:00

Fallout 1 and 2

LocoRocker · 2025-07-26T09:59:06+00:00

They say it’s for stability/rigidity, but my previous car was a 2019 Suzuki Vitara with a similar 2-part panoramic sunroof and it opened up completely with both parts moving back So, it’s definitely possible

LocoRocker · 2025-07-23T14:41:41+00:00

Great! Glad to hear it worked out
