PC gaming needed a budget champion and the Steam Deck filled that role at just the right time.

    Rate it? Rate it what? 5/7?

      Yeah I was confused by the wording of the title.

        “I rate it” is a pretty common phrase used to mean “I rate this thing positively”, isn’t it?

          I’m assuming it is from how it was used, I just don’t think I’ve ever heard the phrase before. It must not be popular where I live or in my usual internet communities.

          Maybe it’s a British thing, or maybe I’m just old and out of touch.

            Author of the article is from Wales so it could well just be a British thing. I’ve heard it used plenty so it’s not youth-speak!

      Is that a perfect 5/7?
