Been playing a lot of apex this week, runs like a dream!
Soldato
Do you play on the small screen with it or run it on an external?
Soldato
Just play it on the small screen it can be difficult to see people miles away like but it’s still great fun being able to chill in bed playing 
Soldato
It's fairly competitive, and people can get salty. I'm not sure I'd want to play it on that LOL. How do you get on with it?Just play it on the small screen it can be difficult to see people miles away like but it’s still great fun being able to chill in bed playing
Soldato
Not too bad tbf L don’t think I’d do any better on the PS5 as I usually get shot in the back anyway. Only way I’d play better is on the pc.
Also if you think that game can get salty, never play Dota 2 / CS:GO or Valorant haha

Just got my 512 I bought of @GoRedwings19 , man this thing is awesome, just shame I could only get couple smaller games downloaded before I had to leave (rural area so slow isp)
Soldato
Passed up my chance. Spent 700 on a new printer, and another 200 on my other printer to upgrade. Busy repairing my house for sale and spending money so prob not smart. Gonna kick myself when I have to buy one used. Lol. Hopefully they bring lut the dock soon as I do eventually want that when I eventually get jt lol.

I'm trying to carry mine whenever I go out. Partially just because, and partially because of Vampire Survivor addiction
Just sat out in the sun while the wife ransacked TK Maxx, the screen (512gb} works great when it's bright!

I'd like one to play around with, but going to wait for the inevitable Steam Deck MK II, or maybe on of the upcoming rivals.
Soldato
Is it weird that I was already thinking about that? I reckon it will be a few years though.
I reckon the Index will get a refresh before the Steam Deck - that's been on the market for 3 years now.

Ok, so wife remarked that I should still get the steam deck... So having to contact support to try and claim it again
EDIT: Well, that's it. An owner now LOL. Steam support kindly let me purchase the 256GB model even though my time lapsed. I had better get the house finished now and get this hunk of brick sold.

Vampire Survivor any good?I'm trying to carry mine whenever I go out. Partially just because, and partially because of Vampire Survivor addiction

Pretty addicting, but for me don't think its got a lot of longevity. I've played about 20 hours in a week and then kind of not touched it again. Certainly worth the price.

If you're of an age to remember Galaga, think back to the moment when you managed to join two ships and double your firepower. Its that feeling of achievement...... constantly. Digital dopamine.
Soldato
I don' t think I'll be that happy playing first person shooters on the SD, so I think I'll need to find some decent platformers I already have Ori so want some other beautiful games.
EDIT:OK, I completely get the impatience now... still in the shipping soon status LOL.

Well, I haven't even received it yet, and just ordered some aftermarket joysticks lol.
Hall effect I believe (or similar) so won't wear out, and 'shouldn't' drift over time. Should all be within warranty as well since it was designed for modular parts.

Get what sold?
Quickly filled in my 'pay now' email for my steam deck last week, knew I wouldn't be home to take delivery so put my mum's address but went into auto pilot and put down my own bloody postcode, so a hybrid address.. Delivery now stuck until it gets resolved by Valve. Absolutely gutted haha. Should've' been here yesterday.
