I forget if I ever shared this thing I made back in the day.

    If xbox is gone, there’s at least a chance we can finally bury the abxy vs bayx thing.

      Never mind that abxy business what the hell happened to Start and Select!?

      I know those buttons no longer do what theyre named after, but neither does rewinding a video or hanging up a phone.

        Steam Deck buttons are Xbox layout.

        Better than the old days of “Press 3,” or worse- having to map keys to joystick buttons in the config of everything

          But SteamOS (UI) itself lets you configure it. It even has controller-agnostic button prompts, kind of similar to Breath of the Wild’s where it shows you each button and highlights the one you should press. If I was at home, I’d share a picture of it.

          I hope we can reach the point where everything is convenient to switch to whatever you preference/physical controller is in every game.

          Maybe one day.

      Since when is Xbox gone? Microsoft would be silly to kill off their console, they’d lose a pretty significant chunk of Game Pass subscribers. The rumors point to a hybrid PC/console, but it’s still an Xbox.

      Of course, Microsoft making foolish decisions would be nothing new.

        What I got is that they’re trying to move to OEMs, like windows PCs. Either way, switching to a PC platform seems doomed, because who would choose that when Steam exists.

          They want to integrate Steam with the console, from the rumors I saw. They’ve already integrated Steam into the Xbox app on PC, as I understand it.

          More flexibility is a good thing. Console Game Pass and Steam on the same system? Yes please.
