For the last little while now, I've been finding that my most played games have been on my old 360 that I decided to plug in again, and my old old PS2 collection that I ripped and loaded to an emulator because the old hardware broke a long time ago.

Third place is "new to me" games that I finally buy when they go on a good sale years after they were "new" (is. RDR2 and Cyberpunk)

I haven't bought a new AAA title in years on console because I can't justify the cost.

PS2 games look and play great on the Steamdeck. Probably my favorite way to play them.

By the way, I have a couple of PS2's, and I use a harddrive so the hardware just keeps working. Usually it is the laser that fails. There are also options to network and play from NAS, or use a micro SD.

Mine was the laser as well. Unfortunately it was years and years ago and I just tossed it away like an idiot. My collection from then on began collecting dust until last year when I decided to take one of my old Android Phones and a Razer Kishi and turn it into a handheld emulator.
