MSI teasing a handheld gaming PC like the Steam Deck

Powered by Intel? I know Intel's graphic drivers have improved a lot since the release of Arc but their CPU power consumption and perf per watt at low TDPs is trash since the 12th Gen. And their integrated graphics aren't as good as AMD's. I don't think this is going to be an interesting product unless it comes with a semicustom chip with more Xe cores, but an off the shelf mobile chip is more likely.

That is SUCH a great name for The Godawful Awards! :grin: Love it!
We should do a brainstorm and a poll to choose the GoL official name for the show.

Here's the top Steam Deck games for December 2023

I've been hocked to Raft, hard. I'm 60 hours in and I just finished what is supposed to be the first chapter (3rd story island), because making my raft big and nice is a bliss for me. It was the same when I played Grounded.

And since my GPU died 1 month ago, I've been using my Deck docked as a desktop using FSR to upscale games from 720 to 1440. Until I get a new GPU, my portable and desktop gaming are fused (and very limited, playing first person games at 40fps-ish with mouse is painful until you get use to it)

RDR2 instead of DRG? I think there is a lot of people that doesn't know what is rewarding the Labor of Love award. RDR2 doesn't get a mayor update since 2022, just a few small updates in 2023. On the other side, 2 seasons in DRG are like a big dlc expansion of a AAA game but free, this is worst than the Geoffawards

From time to time I like to jump into Helldivers with a friend or two even if we've unlocked everything in the game a long time ago, just because "accidentally" killing your friends is always a good laugh. The jokes about how Helldivers justifies everything in the name of democracy is the cherry on top. I've been recommending this game since I got it on PSVita almost 10 years ago and I just don't get tired of it, I can't.

Btw, don't buy it if you don't have someone to play with, it's almost dead and playing solo is not as fun and too hard beyond mid difficulties.

Quoting: lukas333Nice, I loved that game, I'll try it on Deck again
ikr? It's so cute and fun to play. It's great to see they are adding more content even if it's just a little.

Steam Workshop gets even better with shareable Workshop Collections

Quoting: gradyvuckovicI can imagine that being very useful for stuff like making sure you and all your friends have the same mods when you play an online game together.
My exact thought as I was reading. I've used the collections in Nexus Mods/Vortex to make my own list and share it with friends before starting coop modded sessions in games like Stardew Valley, it simplifies the processs A LOT. This functionality in Steam WorkShop is sweet nectar coming from the sky.

AMD FidelityFX Super Resolution 3 (FSR3) is now open source

I've been looking in to this a little and looks like the only APUs supported are the 7000 series. I know that using it to go from 30-40 fps to 60 creates too much input lag, but I thought it could be interesting to use it to go from 60 to 90 fps on the Steam Deck Oled, but unless they expand the supported hardware, looks like it won't happend.

Golf With Your Friends is one of those games where is funnier try to screw up your friends than try to win, I love it. And if you are on sweaty mode you can try to one shot to the green of a different hole, as Liam said, there are no bounds, literally.
