DF Direct Weekly returns with Rich, John and Oliver discussing the latest chapter of the Xbox multi-plat transition saga, the release of LEGO Horizon Adventures and Intel's pledge to improve Arrow Lake CPU performance. Meanwhile, Sony is bullish on PS5 Pro sales as discounts begin in the UK and the team has concerns about the mooted Stellar Blade PC port. And finally, John has a forum for telling you all about how great the recently released Halo 2 E3 demo is - and why he loves the ModRetro Chromatic.

Fun to hear about bazzite again! I recently built a bazzite-based mini-ITX system (Ryzen 7600 + RX 7800XT). It’s connected to my living room TV and works flawlessly! I switched from consoles to PC at the end of the previous console generation to access “console-exclusive” games that were also available on PC (if you were willing to wait) and to enjoy a wide variety of indie games. I was also frustrated when I played a game available on PC and Switch that did not support cross saves (or to be forced to buy the game twice) Now, with this new ITX setup, I finally have everything I wanted: a PC that offers a console-like experience and supports cross-saves with a portable device (the Steam Deck). I’m sure I could take the setup even further: configuring tools to enable cross-saves for other launchers, streaming locally from the mini-ITX PC to the Steam Deck (when the TV is unavailable) or to play demanding games (too big for the SteamDeck)

The download for this is VERY slow. 17 hours to complete even though I just downloaded another video in less than two minutes. Am I the only one dealing with this?
