Bought it a few years ago for my PS4, on a whim, and fell in love with it. But last summer I put it on my Deck and realized its the perfect way to play it.

Chained Echoes is a throwback turn-based RPG unabashedly inspired by games like Chrono Trigger and FF6. Its story and characters are complex but accessible, its gameplay is thoughtful but fast-paced, and its exploration is very rewarding. Visually, youd believe the sprite sizes and overall field of view were designed specifically for the Deck's screen size, had the game not come out before.

I work at a summer camp, and break out my Deck whenever I have downtime. Chained Echoes was my "Summer game" last year, and it was a perfect choice. It brought back memories of childhood, chilling with my cousin during summer break and watching her play through, well, Chrono Trigger and FF6 on her snes. Its was such a comforting feeling.

So if I could make a humble recommendation: put it on you Deckand play it over the course of this summer.

Give me 60fps driving games, please

Hi, I‘m looking for driving games that play at stable 60fps. They don’t need to be realistic, more like quick rounds or like fun and challenging stuff.

Previously enjoyed games:

• ⁠Circuit Superstars.

• ⁠Super Woden GT.

• ⁠Art of Rally.

• ⁠You Suck At Parking.

• ⁠Summer Trip Cruise (at least on PC).

• ⁠Forza series.

• ⁠Horizon chase.

• ⁠NFS series.

• ⁠ETS2 / ATS.

• ⁠Trackmania.

• ⁠Burnout Paradie.

Preferred genres:

• ⁠Arcade • ⁠Multiplayer (quick sessions) • ⁠Battle Racing • ⁠Simulation (slow, not racing sim)

Budget: any

Other notes: I already played the big ones like NFS Hot Pursuit, Forza Horizon and Burnout Paradise. I liked them but I don’t want to play the same games over and over again.

Also short multiplayer sessions are fun to me.

Do you have any ideas?

Ever since I got my SD two months ago I wanted to try this game but I’ve been waiting on a sale because I was lowkey sure I wouldn’t like it. It turns out I actually had nothing to fear!

For those who don’t know, UFO 50 is a compilation of 50 “lost games” by a fictional video game company, they are 50 complete games encompassing every genre you can think of and more from the 80s. In real life the game was made by a handful of rockstar indie devs (spelunky, hotline Miami, downwell and many others) that joined together to make 50 games in the style of the 80s with all the friction, graphics, music that characterized games from that era. As I was born in the nineties, I played many 80s games growing up, but besides the Super Mario NES games, I never clicked with them. The hardware constraints and design philosophy always felt dated to me.

UFO 50 restricts itself to those same hardware and genre costraints (the lore is that those 50 games were made on a fictional 80s console) but brilliantly updates the design philosophy of what an 80s game should feel like. For example, there is a racing game clearly inspired by splatoon, or a Zelda like game that has an idle element to it (every time you close it the resources you use keep updating), there’s a Windjammers like game with samurais (I like it better than Windjammers tbh), an absolutely amazing deck builder inspired by the 80s rock aesthetic and precisely 46 more games full of innovation and wonder. There are a few duds here and there, but even if they’re not objectively good games (looking at you, Barbuta), they still serve the purpose of immersing you in this era.

Even if you’re not a fan of retro gaming (like me), I assure you’ll get your money’s worth on this. Besides that, it’s amazing on the deck.

I have been gaming with steam for ages and have never bought during summer sales or any big sale events in general, I just ignored them. But this year I decided to go for it, I actually was looking forward to it, this are all games I have always at least once said "Oh I need to play this" proceeded to put into my cart and never actually buying them cuz I thought "well maybe I don't need it". But here is the thing: No one needs games. So this year I spent 130 Euros in all of those, the only one I have played multiple times is Crash (Childhood factor convinced me to buy it). So now when future me wants to get a game I'll look into this backlog and past me is jumping from joy cuz we never thought we could one day buy this many games in a go.

What I want to say with this post is: Bro if your inner child tries to speak to you and you have some money laying around, go for it. It's well worth it in the long run.

If you’re wondering if you should get it for the Deck but are worried about performance, you’re in luck. No, this is not your usual “golly gee wowzers it gets 30fps!” type thing, that shit annoys the hell out of me cause 30fps is hardly playable on some games, especially a souls like. Set to medium graphics, it pretty consistently runs at 60 fps with incredibly minimal stutters. They happen randomly at times but goes away after like 2 seconds. If you really want the graphics at their best, it runs at 50fps on high settings which is still pretty miraculous. Wouldn’t bother with maximum graphics though, haven’t tried it personally but honestly don’t need to to tell you you’re probably getting 30-45fps at best.

TL;DR: runs awesome and you should get it. It’s worth it, if you’re strong enough.
