Then my recommendation stands firm: buy a #PlayStation5.

Don't wait and don't think.

If you cannot afford a #PS5, a #SteamDeck is another cheap alternative.

It's a shame that no even Valve's #SteamMachine can rescue #PCGaming from dying by a thousand cuts.

Looking for your first gaming device?

Consider a #SteamDeck. You can find it used below $300 on eBay and similar prices.

👍 Doubles as a PC
👍 Decent screen
👍 Great ergonomics
👍 Good battery life
⛔ Plays AAA games with compromises
⛔ Few online games
✅ No fucking subscriptions

Test WiFi, audio, ports, screen, loading a game and it's good.

Trick to Fix Xbox UX Chaos

YouTube

#Dave2D says:

The #XboxAllyX is aimed to enthusiasts. People who are looking for $1,000 device know what they're getting into.

The white one, however, my suspicion is that it will be returned a lot. If it's an Xbox product, it has to have an Xbox experience.

We'll see how successful it was when the drop the number of units sold. Hint: they won't.

ROG XBOX Ally Review - The Curse of “XBOX”

YouTube

«Believe me, everyone will be pissed off to buy a $1,000 #XboxAllyX that cannot play #GTAVI»

Or, in other words, why you would spend $600 on an #XboxAlly when you can get a #SteamDeck at $400 (or less second hand) that also can't play GTAVI.

Also, not subdizing the #XboxAlly shows #Xbox knows the handled is not a success.

If they were, they would have bet their chips on it, from marketing to support. You would have seen it $499/$799.

Instead, they went the sticker slap. And when the #SteamDeck 2 comes around, people who bought this will be seen as clowns.
