At last! One of the most important missing feature is finally here. Pausing the game during rest mode is really needed.

Its a sweet little device. comes in real handy when you just cant sit in front of the regular tv screen to play.

I can see the appeal, but as an OLED Stem Deck user, I can't justify owning one.

outsider162484d ago

As a dad of 3, this is a godsend for us ps5 players. I just bought it and have been playing in bed while the kids watch their shows. And the mrs thinks its good since i can be near her lol.

Inverno84d ago

Especially when the Deck has a very well made Remote Play app, and the touch pads/gyro can be used for aiming.

Neonridr84d ago

@outsider1624 - yep, I use an app on my Steam Deck which lets me do the same thing. Granted I'd love the dualsense features built into the controller, but being able to play my steam games as well as my PS5 is a bit of a bonus.

@Inverno - absolutely, it's why I can't justify getting a portal on top.

@outsider1624 "And the mrs thinks its good since i can be near her lol."

If only mine was that easy.....

darthv7284d ago

Even as a regular deck user I can justify having the portal... just as i can justify having the g cloud. The deck has been great for all my steam stuff and some retorarch games. But it is kind of chunky whereas the portal is very svelt and sleek and just feels right when playing PS games. The g cloud feels very comfortable too and it doesnt hurt that it is geared towards XB games.

In my hands, there is room for all three (and switch makes four). I get it that everyone is different and I say play what you like but also keep an open mind.

The streaming which you can't do on the SD swayed me

Cockney84d ago

Thats fair, £200 just for haptics seems unwarranted, I think its a decent upgrade if you're coming from one of those phone/joypad hybrid things

LemyAtom84d ago

You know I felt the same for a long time, but the adaptive triggers and better haptic make enough of a difference for me. The screen isn't as good obviously, but it's a high quality IPS which is way better than what I was expecting.

FinalFantasyFanatic83d ago

I also use my Steam Deck OLED to play PS4 games, it works stupidly well.

If Sony opened this up to other streaming apps it'd fly off the shelves

darthv7284d ago

Or... if it had its own onboard storage to side load PSP and Vita games, that would be a great addition to the streaming.

Cockney83d ago (Edited 83d ago )

@darth72 Are the innards powerful enough to cope with those?

Abnor_Mal84d ago

I know I did day one, but now I wish I would have waited because the black one is fire 🔥

darthv7284d ago

you can get a skin for the white one to make it black... or any color you want.

Lexreborn284d ago

I actually am planning on buying one in the next few months. I’m more focused on paying some debts down to adjust for the year and trying to control my spending.

repsahj84d ago

I love my PS Portal, and gaming on the cloud is fire!! Just hoping that cloud streaming/gaming will also be available in the Extra Tier subscription!

Dandizzle84d ago

That number just got pulled out of the ass of someone who has no actual internal numbers
