    Games from 1999-2007 aged really well. I’ve been playing Aliens vs Predator 2, No One Lives Forever and a bunch of GameCube, PS2 and Xbox games on my Steam Deck.

        Make a player named Jacob Paterson. EZ home runs.

        If you can deal with the extreme tedium of making an entire roster of "Jacob Paterson"s (changing letter casing here and there), you’ll be steamrolling everyone. Kinda ruins the fun of the game, but I find it really satisfying to watch >700ft home runs that clear the entire stadium and hear Kuip and Krukow endlessly call dinger after dinger. Pure dumb fun :D

          That’s a good idea. I just use Jon Dowd, the white fictional dude who has the same stats as Barry Bonds lol

      Additioaly if you count 2D games like classic RPG’s and platformers, games from SNES and PSX era are golden as well.

      Makes me wish the Deck OLED wasn’t worth blood money on this side of the pond.

      I’ll be interested to see how the Orangepi Neo reviews when it releases, it’s the only handheld I reckon can hold a candle to the deck, though I suspect Orangepi’s track record of record shite support will derail that one.
