I mentioned my price guess during the @nerdnest.tv podcast not that long ago.

These prices are something else, but I had a feeling $999 was where they were going to be at.

Still, $999 Xbox Ally X > $1350 Legion Go 2 solely based on price.

As far as performance, let's see how it goes.

@baldlyrudy.com and I were talking about Torchlight 2 from Runic Games, and Hades 2 from @supergiantgames.bsky.social , I compared the two because combat is similar (ARPG), but Torchlight isn't a roguelike. do you consider the games to be similar?

I know #Gamescom is happening right now. But I'm most curious as to how this handheld feels and plays. #XboxAllyX #XboxAlly #Xbox

It's not half bad. There's latency for sure though.

Yeah man! I 100% get where you're coming from.

I know it's a bit cheesy (maybe cringe), but I view games like this as art. It should be interpreted differently by other people.

What moved me may not move you at all and vice versa.

The music is damn good. I don't want to spoil anything, but enjoy.

Been having a blast with the Anbernic RG557 and how well it performs. The Dimensity chipset inside is a beast.

The only platform that gave it some issues while I've been messing around has been the Wii U. Everything else seems to run well so far.
