XBOX delays Fable to February 2027 to avoid Grand Theft Auto 6

I don't think these are the same audiences. I have no interest in GTA VI myself. And I imagine people who ARE interested in GTA VI will be playing that well after even the delayed release date for Fable.

Stardock announce an expansion into indie game publishing

During Gamergate, Brad Wardell was actively boosting harassment and taking part in it himself. The amount of ick I associate with that man and the company by extension has made me not buy anything published by them in what is now 12 years. The best thing I can say about ol' Brad is that at least he's not in the Epstein files (shoutout to Bobby Kotick).

Should published game developers suffer because of this? Probably not, no. Just makes it a very tough pill to swallow.

What frustrates me a bit is the frequency I encounter YouTubers that are super excited for this so they can replace Windows with SteamOS on their desktop PCs. I suspect they will end up just being very disappointed since that is not what this is for.

Valve still waiting on a 'generational leap' for Steam Deck 2 - but it's coming

The last "generational leap" I experienced was when micros went from 8 bit to 16 bit. We went from C64, ZX Spectrum etc. to Amiga, Atari ST.

Ever since then it has been mild increments at best.

Decided to reinstall Gladius recently, but it just does not seem to work for me any more. Have tried, native, proton.

Quoting: spacemonkeyDoes anybody know if the sleep function also works in Desktop mode? And, if so, does it work with any application, or only applications started from Steam?
It does, and it sleeps the whole system, so it works with any open apps.

With a Nintendo Switch 2 on the way, I hope Valve make a Steam Deck 2

I feel like living room form factor would probably be next. Althouuugh, why not both? Or a combination. A handheld that docks to a box with a more powerful GPU and allowing all the APU's RAM to just be RAM.
