Does the Steam Deck count as a PC or as a console?
In this case, it counts as a PC, but given that you have to ask the question, I think that speaks volumes.
PC.
Both. The future isn't in consoles, it's in console-like PCs. Just wait until Valve drops the Fremont, I believe it'll change absolutely everything.
PC, because console has less games than PC
The dictionary definition of "console" would include the deck AND gaming PCs.
The line in bluring, but the Deck can run Windows if you want, it’s a PC stuffed into a controller (and that’s not a dig at it, either)
