Push Square’s newest Talking Point is asking players what they’ll be booting up this weekend, showcasing a blend of indie exploration and old-school cooperative action. Contributor Aaron Bayne plans to make steady progress in Cairn while also diving into Left 4 Dead 2 runs with friends on their Steam Decks, underlining how well some classics hold up in portable sessions.

  • Reader engagement: The column is framed as a community prompt, encouraging gamers to post their weekend lineups, platform of choice, and any multiplayer invites or sessions.
  • Staff picks highlighted: Cairn represents the slower, more contemplative single‑player side of the weekend, while Left 4 Dead 2 provides fast-paced, social thrills — a contrast between indie narrative play and enduring co‑op shooters.
  • Portable play spotlight: Running Left 4 Dead 2 on Steam Decks is called out as a reminder that older multiplayer titles can thrive on modern handheld hardware, keeping late-night sessions accessible and fun.
  • Conversation fuel: The piece doubles as a way to surface fresh recommendations and shared experiences — from solo grinding to group raids — that could shape future Talking Points and community features.
