Steam Deck Owners: What’s been your favorite game that you first discovered on Steam Deck and now you can’t seem to put down? (beehaw.org)

Looking for those games that you may have heard about but never tried until you got a Deck. Or old games on systems you never had that you’re trying for the first time. Or new AAA games that just released in the last year or two that you picked up for the first time specifically to play on Steam Deck and have kept you glued to the device.

I’m trying to reinvigorate my old, nostalgic love of gaming and hoping to find the perfect Steam Deck + addicting game combo.

I'm not OP, but I use an Xbox one controller.

The newer ones just use Bluetooth and these days my primary gaming computer is a laptop. Works fantastic, just plug and play really.

Thanks!

I've been hearing that those Xbox controllers work very seamlessly with PCs. I'll probably buy one soon. I'll use it with MAME and some Steam games.

just want to say, if you have the choice to buy either the Xbox One or the newer Xbox Series controllers, it's worth it to go for the newer one. Some of the buttons (the bumpers in particular) are way better on the newer controller.

Thank you for that tip.

Edit: This one?
