Added to my wishlist. Looking forward to play this in local coop.

No support for Assassin's Creed Shadows on Steam Deck at launch

I view it more as "an increasing amount of brand-new AAA games don't run well on any hardware, but high-end rigs can power through for a mostly-tolerable experience if you don't mind stuttering."
Totally. Because most of these games run at high fps with high end hardware but still have pretty low dips, creating a lot of stuttering if run at anything else than 30fps. That's the reason I always come back to my Steam Deck. It's, by far, the best 30fps experience around. So, if it doesn't run on my Steam Deck, I won't buy it. Anyway, Ubisoft is already dead to me. I didn't intend on buying this game, anyway.

AMD Radeon RX 9070 and 9070 XT arrive March 6th, AMD dive deeper into RDNA 4 and FSR 4

I still have an RX 470 running because to me at least it seems there has been little improvements in the bracket below 150 W. I don't need high performance, I want better efficiency. And every generation I hope there will be something worth upgrading to.
No far from that. I still have an RX 6600 because it runs with a 500W PSU. I refuse to go above that.

Who knows. Maybe I'll buy one, if the Steam Deck 2 support External GPUs. Anyway, I'll wait for the lower end cards of this series, like 9060.

Makes me think... Playing Skylanders again, with my now teens (Portal and figurines) in 720p instead of the Wii's original 480p.

Received mine in July 2022. It's been my main gaming rig since. I don't plan on buying a gaming PC anymore. I'm waiting for the Steam Deck 2 for my next upgrade.

The best piece of hardware I ever had.

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle gets DLSS 4 and FSR 3.1 but breaks on Steam Deck / Linux with Mesa

Despite being patched 3 times, this game still doesn't work with a RTX 3080 10GB under Windows 11 at the moment ;-(

As long as it's super buggy under Windows, as it is currently, there's little hope of getting good Linux compatibility via Proton...
Probably, but not a guarantee... Remember Elden Ring performance issues, at launch? Valve was able to mitigate the Windows issues with the use of Proton.

A matter of time before Liam posts an update saying: "Valve sent a patch to correct the mesa bug in Indiana Jones..."? Something along those lines?

Let's cross our fingers, but it seems a common pattern in cases like that.

Phil Spencer of Microsoft Gaming thinks generative AI will help game preservation

I have absolutely no clue about AI, but I'm wondering if it couldn't be used, for old games that we have access to the code. Kind of feed that code to an AI that will make it compatible with modern hardware?

I trust in you all to correct me, if I'm wrong, which is highly probable. :grin:
