I have the weekend to myself, which is rare in my books. I could duck my Deck to my 4k TV and play it with an Xbox controller.

Any game suggestions that might actually run at 4k on deck? Ideally like 30 FPS.

    Some that come to mind:

    • Half Life 1/2
    • L4D 1/2
    • Portal (1 for sure, 2 maybe?)
    • The Stanley Parable
    • Ultrakill
    • Super Hexagon (depending on your TV’s latency…)
    • Mirrors Edge (maybe)
    • Doom (maybe)
    • Almost any 2D game

      I have both LFD2 and HL2. But not half life 1. How uh… Important is HL1?

      Oh and both portal games, but I’ve beaten those a half dozen times.

      The Stanley Parable

      From personal experience, I can recommend The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe too. At least to play the game itself. I never played it in 4k. Edit: What does that even meaaaan, Ultra Deluxe?!

      Hey, fair enough. I’m not too much of a quality snob. I just really don’t like stuttering. Bugs the heck out of me haha.

      Good stuff. I don’t have Hades 2, but I assume Hades has comparable performance. I’ll give it another try this weekend.

          I actually don’t have super strong opinions on Hades. Maybe it’s just because I have played gacha games with roguelike features, but it’s kind of frustrating to me to not be able to pick my build and properly level up or anything like that.

          I’ll revisit Hades 1 this weekend and see if my opinion has changed, however.

    This might eat into your weekend but, if you have a stronger PC somewhere at home, you should def consider streaming games from it instead of getting capped into 30fps. Just try Steam Remote Play (recently updated, no setup) or try Sunshine (or one of the forks, Vibeshine / Vibepollo / Moonshine / Polaris) & Moonlight.

      Sadly I don’t have anything stronger, unless you count an Xbox Series S.

      The only gaming PC I have access to is a low/mid range one that was built circa 2016 and runs Wuthering Waves (my benchmark game) pretty on par with my Deck, ignoring resolution changes.
