I started playing this on PC, but at a certain point, it persistently crashed. A bunch of other folks reported the same problem. I guess non-Deck hardware wasn’t a priority for Valve this time.
This is actually my second Steam Deck. I bought the original LCD-screen one back when they were first announced, but they had a nasty habit of the bumper buttons (L1 and R1) breaking. Sure enough my L1 button broke and I just never sent it back to get it fixed. I’ve just been re-mapping that button to the L2 (trigger) button instead.
Recently, my wife expressed interest in having a Steam Deck (she almost bought her own when they first came out), and she claimed she was perfectly content taking my old one, since she doesn’t game as much as me anyway. So I bought a fancy new HDR OLED-screen Steam Deck. It’s much more responsive than my first one. And the bumper buttons work! I forgot how nice it is to just play a game without re-mapping buttons first.
The sequel, Imperfect Dark is much narrower in thematic focus as you are just trying to blow up all the devices in your house that incessantly have leds on even when they are off.
You bought the virtual console version of Goldeneye and Perfect Dark because you have fond memories of playing the carts on the N64 when you were young.
I bought the virtual console version of Goldeneye and Perfect Dark because I have never played them before and wanted to see what all the excitement was about.
We are the same, enjoying classic masterpieces of entertainment in our adulthood.
It’s hilarious because it’s the default control style now, but I remember trying Perfect Dark with the “2.1” controller setup where you used the center stalk on two N64 controllers (giving you a joystick for each thumb) and how hard it was to use initially. So different than the C aiming on Goldeneye.
Nerd powers activate… (And yes, the redraws are really quite ridiculous. But tiddies sell microtransactions, I guess.)
As a side note, I never quite understood why Fio is wearing glasses in the Metal Gear Slug 2 character select screen except, possibly, so the artists could have this gag where they shatter for a quick freeze-frame when you select her:
