Sony's latest PS5 to PC port holds an Unsupported rating for Valve's handheld gaming PC, but it is completely misleading for players.

    I think it’s a fair rating. Part of the game is unplayable on steam deck.

      Yeah, if I see “Steam Deck verified”, I expect the game to work 100% out of the box. Although I guess a “playable” rating might have been more appropriate, but with online mode being so popular I’m sure there would be tons of complaints if Valve said it worked perfectly.

    From the article …

    Valve’s decision to slap the game with an Unsupported rating, then, is down to one game mode not working because it needs to access PlayStation network features, which right now is only possible on Windows devices.

    It’ll be interesting to see how Sony and Valve resolve this issue.

    Sure, let them think it works perfectly and then have them complain to Valve when they don’t even have the option to play the MP mode, great idea.
