If it’s a handheld console that uses its own OS, then it technically isn’t a “PC,” portable or otherwise.

Vits1388d ago

It run Linux. And you can install whatever OS that you want.
It is a PC.

Kados1387d ago

SteamOS is just a layer. The main OS is KDE Plasma Linux. You can also install Windows on it. Technically it is a PC.

Everyone in the whole world: "It's a PC"
VivaChe: "It's not a PC"

There's just no way of knowing who's correct

Outlawzz1387d ago

Listen to this guy. I get a feeling he knows something us simpletons don't

do you know what PC is? PC stands for Personal Computer. Personal computer can be anything. That's why it's called Desktop, laptop, smart phone, and you can keep going. Linux is the KING

annoyedgamer1387d ago

Its Linux. That's more open than Windows.

I'll take "people who have no idea what they're talking about, but have a strong opinion on the matter either way" for 500, Alex.

VivaChe1386d ago

Ok ok, sheesh. I guess I was wrong. I meant it as more of a question, I probably should have added “isn’t it?” at the end to not sound so arrogant. At least I know now that it definitely IS a PC! Lol

MadLad1386d ago

Just busting balls, guy. No worries.
If anyone actually takes this game stuff too seriously, they are the ones with problems lol.

Thisll be great for my backlog, older games, emulation, and slow and grindy games which I really need to get to. And on top of that, I can bring it traveling and itd be less of a hassle than a gaming laptop. All I ever feel like playing on my desktop are modern AAAs and shooters at glorious 1440p and 144 fps lol.
Thank God Nintendo made the switch for there to finally be something like this at a great price.

The Perfect Handheld Gaming PC Doesn’t Exist

Shaz from Pixel Swish: "From the Asus ROG Ally X to the Lenovo Legion GO to the Steam Deck, we’ve gotten a lot of PC handhelds over the past few years. However, for as impressive and exciting as these PC handhelds are, they all fall shy in one way or another from my dream device."

Valve Makes Up for Steam Deck Repair Delay by Gifting Free Game

Valve gave a user Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 for free as compensation for the long wait during their Steam Deck repair.

UltimateOwnage10d ago

I had a similar experience when I initially pre-ordered my Deck. There was an issue during shipping and they offered me a customer service perk for the hassle and let me pick any game on Steam. It was super nice of them. I got a copy of Rime.
