The difference is that if I forget to put the toilet seat down, she can fall in.

Vs if she forgets to put the seat up, I just pee all over the toilet seat.

Not as old as the games OP is talking about, but it is over 7 years old so I would say yes.

7 years is a long time in the gaming world.

I have a bunch of stadia controllers, sometimes individual ones won't connect unless I toggle the deck's Bluetooth off and on again.

Yes, although I'm mostly playing games 4-8 years old. I have a lot of great games I missed during that period, and they both feel modern and run pretty well.

As someone else said, the 64GB model is LCD only, if you want an OLED model you will have to spend at least $550 for the 512GB version.

The main differencea between the OLED and the LCD is the screen and battery life. The OLED gets 30-50+% longer battery which is really nice. More demanding games can go from 1.5hrs on the LCD deck to 2.5hrs on the OLED deck. This is less of an issue on lower battery use games unless you have really long play sessions. The screen looks fantastic, especially on games like Persona 5 that have real vibrant colors. There are also a lot of smaller upgrades

If you do go with the 64GB LCD, understand that the internal space is very limited. You will definitely need more storage. MicroSD cards are easy, but make games very slow to install and make load screens take longer. Many indie games run perfectly fine on microSD cards, but some newer AAA games will have significant performance issues due to the bottleneck in read speeds.

You can also upgrade the internal storage, it's not too difficult. The biggest issue people run into is stripping the screws, but that's not an issue unless you overtighten them or don't use a properly sized and seated screwdriver.

Maybe you're thinking of Flatout 3? It's reviews are pretty terrible, but at lot of the reviews seem mad about the lower quality of 3 because they really liked the flatout games that came before it.

The distinction between "verified" and "playable" usually is supposed to cover this. Usually the notes under the "playable" tag will clarify additional details.

Here's an example

This game has controller support, but the controller support isn't great and you're better off using a community profile. I think the info provided by Steam here does a pretty great job of explaining the state of controller support for the game.

Honestly a lot of people complain about Mr Beast, saying that his charity/etc is done purely for attention and views.

But I figure there are a ton of high profile YouTubers who make a ton of money, and just spend it on themselves or doing elaborate set ups for videos. It seems weird that Mr Beast gets more criticized for doing some good than all the comparative YouTubers who are doing nothing good. It's like by trying to do anything good he's gotten himself judged by a much higher standard than everyone else.

Yeah, Stadia's ability to seamlessly play a game on any screen in my house was huge. And it came out at a really good time where my PC wasn't able to keep up with modern games, but they had just rolled fiber out in my neighborhood. It was also a great gaming platform for my kids, with the stadia pro membership giving them plenty of games to keep them busy.

The steam deck filled a lot of the use cases that Stadia did for me though, and let me leverage my pre-existing steam library.

For comparison, the Switch has somewhere between 5,000 and 11,000 games.

Source: Wikipedia lists about 5000, Nintendo says "over 5000", but this website claims 10,880. Part of why the Moby Games website lists more is because it lists multiple versions of a game as separate games (Xenoblade DE is listed 4 times for example).

Yeah, I've got 4 Stadia controllers left from the service. Between the free hardware and getting all my game purchases refunded I made out really good.
