Is the Deck ready for Final Fantasy VII Remake and God of War on PC? I also give my 2 cents on $70 pricing, a few game announcements and a bunch of Steam Deck news including updates to Steam Client, SteamOS, and packaging.

I've given a lot of hype around Steam Deck but I want to talk about realistic expectations for AAA gaming. Performance, compatibility, battery life are all concerns for me. What about you?
