I'm checking which version works better: the native Linux Half Life source with DirectX fixes or the PS2 version using PCSX2.

I've seen only reviews of half life ps2 version and the textures and everything are much lower quality than half life source's textures. Steam Deck is powerful enough to run half life source so no reason why you should get worse experience.

Digital Foundry conducted the review some time ago, and the PS2 appears significantly less impressive in terms of graphics now.
