Steam Deck: Sí o no? + Actualidad + Arma Reforger + Offtopic | Sector Gaming 77
Episode notes
Episode 77 focuses on Steam Deck, drawing on Carlos’s experience after receiving it and testing games, emulators, and different settings. The team discusses its price, repairability, battery life, compatibility, controls, ergonomics, and target audience, while considering whether it offers anything to people who already own a powerful PC and several consoles. They also discuss using it while travelling, emulation through EmuDeck, and the possibility of installing other ecosystems.
Current affairs form another major section: they discuss The Witcher 3’s next-gen patch, Cyberpunk 2077’s commercial and technical performance, the possible confirmation of Death Stranding 2, and opposing views on Death Stranding. The programme also covers the delays to Starfield and Redfall, rumours about a horror franchise, and the shortage of exclusives for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. Finally, they discuss Konami’s financial results and the future of its franchises. Additional content includes the games played during the week, Ghost of Tsushima, the Podgaming Initiative, a charity podcast, and an announcement of a forthcoming special about VRR.
