    Excellent, definitely planning to move away from xbox once mine dies due to plan restructuring that has me paying the same amount of money to play online but without the benefits Gold originally offered (permanent access to select games each month)

    My hope is that this leads to some improvements to the docked experience for the steam deck. Docked modestill has quite a number of bugs unfortunately.

      define “console.” I daresay that the phrase “console” exists largely to mislead consumers into the expectation that they can’t sideload apps and games onto their own device. Near as I can see, that’s the only real difference. But I can sideload onto my hacked 3DS and switch, are they not consoles anymore? I can run android and linux on the switch too.

              It says ...and it's a PC as a header. What do you think is the part that is implied before the ellipsis? This is clearly to complement the reader’s view of this being a gaming device (i.e. a console).

                  I have a good history of admitting I’m wrong online. I do so freely and frequently. In this case I don’t believe I am wrong, so I will not.

                  GabeCube is a console and a PC.

                  You do realize this is just semantics right.
