I played ICEY for 2.4 hours last night on my Steam Link. It was a really good living room experience. Played really nice with the Steam Controller too. Plus, the fighting is pretty challenging IMO. I regret nothing.
The Hori Real Arcade Pro Kai has always been a sweet deal at $150 but right now you get a PS4 copy of Street Fighter V Arcade edition with it. So if you want a stick for PS4 / PC this is a pretty hard deal to beat.
Just a reminder for Civ players. 6 is available for $12 right now through Humble Bundle monthly. You can cancel whenever (though you should wait till the 2nd to get rest of free games for the month). Here's a referral link

Does anyone else know of an intro laptop deal for a little gaming and design work-- needs to have a 15" display or 17" display. My virtualized Windows 10 Home 64 bit is slow, and I had to pay for Paralllels 14 to get a stable VM that does not crash often.
So far, my efforts are crude, the top banner on my website is my first real keeper.

Sam's Club is having some back to school specials, this: HP 15-BS158CL I5-8250U QC Jet Black laptop. It will do limited gaming, but I want it for light-weight design more than gaming. @Thrax , would you please tell me if the specs mean design capable for $659.99 USD?

If you are an amazon prime member, you can apply for a store card. If you are approved, you will get a 100.00 gift card which you can apply against the cost of a Ryzen 5 2400g. I got one for 27.39, including tax.
