Awesome! The best Silent Hill gets a remake (that we all hope they don't screw up) and it's coming to Steam (and hopefully will run on Linux via Proton)…! :woot:

UNCHARTED: Legacy of Thieves Collection gets Steam Deck Verified ahead of release

Quoting: itscalledrealityI wish Sony would release their more interesting games already. Uncharted can be fun but I’ve already played all four and have no reason I would want to return. Even if they bundled in a secret Uncharted 5. Truthfully the games are all too mechanically similar to warrant any replay.
I'd get it because I prefer the PC experience, didn't finish any of them and don't have a PS5. I played God of War on PS4 but it's a much better experience on my Linux desktop—and they did a great job with the keyboard and mouse controls.

If even another half million extra players were added…imagine their revenue flow.

Of topic(?); I can't find it now, but one of the founders of Bungie had penned an open letter as to why porting to macOS was worth it—this is before the Microsoft acquisition I believe… it's always the bottom line, and I think they're seeing the numbers too.

Damn that's good news. I remember wanting to play Cyberpunk 2077 so bad that I'd switched to the git mesa drivers to get it to work—being new to Linux, that was a "nice" learning experience as well!
