I know, I've been playing on my SteamDeck since release.
Just goes to show, this whole thing is some manufactured nonsense by sony stan’s on twitter.

Steam deck: weak system, needs extra optimization, can’t even play some AAA games= Amazing machine everybody loves it. Devs can’t wait to put their games on it.

Series S: Actually plays games the deck can’t and all at better spec= Terrible machine, shouldn’t exist, everybody hates it.

Sony stan’s :mjlol:

Ill let windowscentral.............a xbox/microsoft focused site breakdown the parity clause stuff since some xbrehs in here seems to be trying to handwave it away

Oh shyt.........I aint know Halo and Forza wont have splitscreen? Could the series S be to blame for that as well? :ohhh:
Maybe that's why Microsoft caved for Larian? MS knows first hand splitscreen cant be down on the S? :ohhh:
Xbrehs can you chime in on this? Do some other current gen games have split screen on the S?

Windowscentral are bias cacs though :mjgrin:

Halo Infinite didn't have split screen because of the original Xbox one.

Forza was never going to have split screen according to Spencer

Borderlands 3, tiny Tina, gears of war 5, battlefront 2 etc. Pretty much every current gen game with split screen besides BG3

But I know you're being disingenuous

Explain to me as a breh that thought about copping a next gen console, but decided to just stay PC gang, how the Series S holding the industry back? I'm one of those smooth brained marsupials that thought the series S is just a 1080p console :picard:

Rather than just cut RAM, Series S also has its hardware slower and gimped. You have to do extra optimizing rather than being just a 1080p variant as envisioned.

There are numerous games that have features only on series x and not s lol. Including first and third party games
You have a studio in Larian straight up saying they werent allowed to release their game on Xbox because they couldnt get a feature to work on S.

"We cant remove the splitscreen feature because we are obliged to launch with feature parity"

Idk why yall trying to act like the parity shyt wasnt/isnt an hinderance. I will take the word of a dev actually working with MS than some xbreh trying to save face. If they parity shyt wasnt an issue, the BG3 shyt wouldnt have been a big deal.
