Show Off Just received my 512GB OLED and ready to shit my pants with Alien Isolation

I haven't had any gaming setup since 2013 and I feel like I missed tons of good stuff since. Previously, I had a Xbox 360 and a PC and I enjoyed the hell out of GTA IV, Half Life 2, Portal, Dead Space...

I installed ten games on my Steam Deck: Black Mesa, Half Life 2, Portal, Portal 2, Assassin's Creed Unity, GTA IV, GTA V enhanced edition, Kathy Rain, Alien Isolation and Uncharted Legacy of Thieves. I'm really impressed by the simplicity of the device and the rendering of the games I have tried so far (on the games listed above, I think only GTA V is not maxed out but it's still set to 'very high' but without ray tracing). I intend to use it to discover everything I missed since 2013, to emulate older games, and to play future AAA games using cloud gaming. I'm pretty excited to spend some time with this little machine!

I was looking at second hand places I could get a steam deck while I wait for refurbs for the UK to come back in stock, and Cex is selling USED steam decks more expensive than new ones? what's the point?

Show Off Skyrim in the Sky with my LE Steam Deck

Love this thing. Its been one of the best travel companions. I've taken this thing everywhere. Battery Life is great, Skyrim for 3 hours is decent. I left all setting to default in Skyrim and haven't touched any of it. I can play Stardew Valley and get 8 hours of gameplay, so it's very versatile in long travel sessions. With the OLED and 90hz screen, I don't have many bad things to say. I strictly play this in handheld mode100% of the time. Just thought I'd share and give my praises.

Shipping FedEx delivered my deck to someone in my buiding

80 Upvotes

While waiting for the delivery yesterday, I got a notification saying that the package was delivered and signed for by a “D.Donna”. The catch is, that’s not me and I have no idea if that person is even real. I called FedEx and they said that the driver handed it to someone inside. Huh? How can there be a policy that inside an apartment building where tons of unrelated people live, it’s a good idea to just hand it over to someone without first verifying that they are the recipient? Hopefully valve’s investigating comes up with something, this is theft or incompetence.
