I just got one like a week ago and totally got it to play like pixel indie games

I don’t know who would get this and expect it to be some absolute powerhouse

> ps5 is not far from ps4

yeah ask any games developer what they have to say about that, or just look at cross gen titles that are on PS4 and PS5. Like for real. Look at GT7, or God of War: Ragnarok or Horizon Forbidden West or any number of cross gen titles on both platforms and tell me they’re “not far apart”. Worst case you’re getting double the frame rate along with significant resolution boosts on the PS5 version while also essentially eliminating loading.

That gap is huge already and will only grow as games in development that target only PS5 from the ground up and don’t have to worry about the PS4 versions come out.

Graphics evolution in low power bracket is extremely slow. Slowest possible

Evolution in sub 100w is faster but 10 years does not provided much difference in terms of architecture .all performance gains is mostly rely on lithography and clock speeds . And that’s the saddest part . Last lithography which added power efficiency was 14nm. That’s why ps5 does not started new next gen era .. ps5 is not far from ps4

If it was an app, it was probably Facebook. But no, no one searched for "Tektronix". It's not a company I use nor one I have EVER searched for. My co-worker told someone on the phone "It's a fluke..." and I piped up, "No, it's a Tektronix!" (geek humor, both Fluke and Tektronix make test equipment)

THE NEXT DAY I got ads for, you guessed it...Tektronix. That wasn't random, and that wasn't me searching for it. That was my phone listening to my conversations and picking up a keyword, then feeding me ads in chrome.

>iPad Pro is quite powerful

Yea but its the same problem when these discussions happen. iPad Pro also starts at $750 for the base model and the M1/2 Chip isn't really able to game that well when it comes to 99% of the games people want to play on the deck. There have already been a bunch of steam deck killers come out but the price tag always makes it a tough sell.

Main problem of that chip is not the screen . Main problem is tablet grade power limit . Spec wise chip could handle 1080p easily

SD can't use DLSS. It's an AMD product, not NVIDIA.

Stream deck is best if you have a system that can stream your games to the deck.

Does this also run Steam Link? If so, perhaps thats their idea with that marketing; just mirroring the game from PC hardware and play anything your PC can run.

Side note, for home use, Steam Link has really changed how I play games now. Super impressed with how well it’s worked.

Plus you don't have to take a separate controller with you. I've beaten like 5 games I've been sitting on for ages simply because I could easily play in bed.

It's a godsend with a toddler in the house.

No kidding. PS2 is -rough-.

Art direction counted for a hell of a lot more too, which I vastly prefer. I don't care about ultra-high-poly photoreal stuff, give me things that are aesthetically pleasing.

PS4 ran old games at 1080p. Deck is perfectly capable of running old games at resolutions higher than 800p.

Shadow of colossus HD (not the Bluepoint remake) for the PS3 looks better than almost any switch game outside of some first party titles. I obviously wasn't being 100% literal.

Yeah, no they don't. You have some rose colored glasses regarding what PS2 games actually looked like.

Yes, they’ve been pretty clear that there’ll be future models eventually. They’ve indicated that it’ll be quite a while before we see one with a different performance level, though, they’ve suggested the next model will focus on screen and battery life. Whether that’s a proper second gen (replacement at comparable price points) or more like the Switch OLED, a more premium model that slots in above the current ones, remains to be seen.
