🌿 Linux Mint - Best overall
❄️ Zorin OS - Closest to Windows
🖥️ Ubuntu - An alternative start
💥 PopOS - Gamer focused

Bonus:
🎩 Fedora - Almost bleeding edge

Bro at this point, what does it take for a live service game to survive? There are mmo's from the 2000s that are still going with a much lower player count than any of these cancelled games.

And just like that, Forza can be enjoyed by even more people who refuse to buy an Xbox.

To all the extremists, what else was Microsoft supposed to do? Cater to the small fan base Xbox has left or expand so these franchises don't die? I want to see games like this and Fable live on forever.

The way I interpret this is they want to pull a Nintendo and give users a gimmick that will hopefully change the way games work.
In my opinion, they should focus on making Xbox like the Steam Deck and allow you to play PC games.

We don't need another Kinect.

Halo Infinite needs to be the next thing Microsoft puts on PS5. I am surprised this game is still kicking with it's low player count.

This is sad. I love the Division. Between XDefiant bombing and the new Assassin's Creed struggling, we may not see Division 3 for a while.

This and Rainbow Six Siege are all that Ubisoft has left. They cannot mess up here.

Prove to me that this game isn't dying. Yes, they recently explained that upcoming updates will also focus on improving the game and I'm sure that will be very beneficial.

At the same time, having to split up a blowdart type to stretch the season is crazy.

This game comes out in THREE WEEKS. I have not seen even one ad for Avowed. Xbox didn't even bother mentioning it during their Direct.

I am excited for this game. The Skyrim-genre drought is real. Too bad this game is going to bomb and we have Xbox to thank.

Please Microsoft. If there was ever an MMO to put on console that could easily compete with FF14, this is the one. Combine that with Game Pass and I can see the player numbers boom.

Just bought mine. I'm sure the Steam Deck will be fine for a few more years, however, Nintendo is more than likely going to be getting multiplayer games like COD. Valve needs to strike a deal with these companies or else the Deck will no longer be a viable option

With Switch 2 on the horizon, where does that leave the Steam Deck?
The Nintendo Switch 2 is finally on the horizon, but what implications does that have for the performance floor for the Steam Deck?
