Steam Summer Sale 2023 - Recommendations For Your Steam Deck/ROG Ally

It's that time of the year again and our wallets are crying! The Steam Summer Sale is live and thousands of games have gone on sale. Regardless, this is the perfect time to pick up some games for your Steam Deck and ROG Ally libraries.

Before getting to the list, I highly recommend getting the Valve Complete Pack. It is a pack of 21 games made by Valve and houses some classics like the Portal and Half-Life series. These are awesome games that run fantastic on the Steam Deck and it only costs $6.54, so I highly recommend picking it up!
