Get your game on!

Everyone's favorite hyperactive, high pitched Canadian techtuber got his tiny mitts on a Steam Deck production sample.

Did he drop it?

Saints Row the Third remaster is free on EGS until Sept 2nd, which is about what it's worth.

[Knuckledragger]

I did not sign up for this.

Oh snap.  Titan Quest Anniversary Edition is currently free on Steam(!)  I sunk 100s of hours into the original version of this game in another lifetime.  It's a fantastic hack n slash loot grinder.  Definitely worth both the price of "as in beer" and your time: https://store.steampowered.com/app/475150/Titan_Quest_Anniversary_Edition/

Remember how I said I'm not playing Valheim? I'm playing Valheim. Yeah, it's good.

We actually got a 5-man race in. Forza Horizon 5 on Game Pass. All are welcome to join!

[Knuckledragger]

Forza Horizon 4 / 5 is almost enough to make me want to buy a new SSD and try out W10.

Or you could take the Shadow PC / X Cloud approach while we wait for the silicon shortage to end .

For S&G I side loaded Xbox Game pass onto my Nvidia Shield TV and could play FH5 via Cloud on the LG OLED from the couch.

Don’t you mean W11?

[Knuckledragger]

Deffo not.  My chip is decidedly not on the short list of ones that can run W11.

Ahhh, right. Forgot you prefer vintage gear.

Just did the on my Surface Pro 4 a few days ago.  Worked great.  I wiped all programs etc. on the install (needed to clean things up anyway).  If it stops being supported one day, I'll only cry a little.

This heavyset fella seems familiar for some reason.

[Knuckledragger]

Itch.io has a huge bundle of games for $10.  Proceeds go to help Ukraine.

[Knuckledragger]

Humble has a $40 bundle with 123 games in it to support Ukraine.

[Knuckledragger]

Fanatical has followed suite to Humble and put together their own Stand with Ukraine bundle, 58 games for $15 (or as much as one cares to donate.)

I´m playing this with my HP G1... Since I got a 3080 at a "reasonable" price (700€) I´m enjoying all my simulators in VR.

Steam Summer Sale is live.  The site loads ...sometimes.  I wouldn't try to do anything on it for an hour or so.
