    Ok, that makes sense. I just own only a PC which has everything I need, no tv. The only thing I would love to have is a steam deck.

      Yep, and that works for some folks. For me, I prefer to keep my games and my PC separate where applicable (Obviously except specific titles that are simply better with a keyboard) and I like to enjoy my fancy surround sound system and big TV for gaming experiences on the console. Sure the graphics aren’t as good and there isn’t much in the way of modding, but that’s okay for the way I consume games. There’s also the appeal of just loving a certain console’s library

        PC’s can be plugged into tv montiors. There is emulators, controllers, like you said modding. Then you can sync with steam deck and play on the go.

        I know someone who actually hooked his computer to a massive tv monitor, plays video games on it, and watches movies from the same computer.

        Also, does PlayStation, Nintendo, and Xbox charge for online? Consoles would be cool if they didn’t charge for online, and had a web browser, and basically the functionality of a computer.
