Thread 723538471

this thing smoothly runs everything I throw at it on high settings. the new xbox full screen experience is amazing too, so why is it getting so much hate? don't console fags know gaming PCs are expensive?

This is probably the thing that's going to kill xbox for real. Man I dont care much for console war bullshit, but it genuinely looks like sony and xbox are in a mad dash to commit sudoku first. So many of the decisions of both companies lately have been absolutely terrible.
>xbox shifting their entire plan into gamepass and praying to baal for what, 200m users by next year? Only to up their prices and cut their userbase in half
>rog no one asked for to play games no one cares about
>everything halo
>sony bought bungie for 4billion or some shit idk. Now destiny is on the verge of collapse and maratroon is going to be shitcanned
>concord lmao
>every single player sequel has performed worse than the original
>they've also attempted to double down on live service. No one can name a single solid live service game from them apart from destiny
Gaming has never been in a more grim state. While it is true that this is the best time for gaming in terms of sheer access and variety, it genuinely feels like less and less games are coming out that are good and more and more slop trash year by year

Only Xbox. Sony is still committed to making consoles and you will see a ps9 in 30 years from now

>>723540503
it's a race to the bottom between all three. no reason to buy any current gen console anymore

>>723538471 (OP)
>this paid shilling to sell you this Windows crap
Just get a Steam Deck or wait on the Steam Deck 2. Doom the Dark Ages is even verified for the Steam Deck now and plays at around 40-50FPS, shocking, I know.

>>723540916
There won't even be a PS7, lol

>>723540503
Xbox's strategy is to wait until cloud subscription gaming takes off. Everything until then doesn't really matter or is in preparation for that

>>723541561
So their strategy is to completely fail so they have an excuse to shutter xbox in favor of ai

>>723541561
>Xbox's strategy
They don't have one, Microsoft wants Xbox dead and gone and Microsoft Gaming to resurface so they can sell their games everywhere and make record profits for AI.

Modern AAA titles look essentially unplayable on the $600 model, unless you consider a fluctuating ~20 fps to be playable.

>>723541718
The base model is a scam
Everyone knows the only worthwhile model is the thousand buck one

>>723542093

Can it run old xbox games?

>>723538471 (OP)
I got the new X version. Set everything low on Stellar Blade, I can get mostly 60 fps. Looks great on the small screen.

According to who? Any source? Citation? 136 billion revenue in 5 years with 125 million active users doesn't sound like a dying platform that will cease existing in 10 years time

>>723543381
>revenue
Profit?

>>723543568
15% of that o algo. More than the profit of PS1,2,3, & 4 combined

>>723541610
>>723541634
You will live to see Microsoft push a Gemini Virtual Console

>>723542195
>Stellar Blade on Xbox
NOOOOOOOOOO

>>723542136
not at all, it's running windows os
and you can't run native og xbox games/xbox360 games on it

>>723543668
Nintendo makes more profit than SIE does on PlayStation

>>723538471 (OP)
okay great, lets assume your shilling has worked. I need to upgrade my PC but cannot be bothered right now. if I buy this to hold me over for a year, can I throw all my pirated games onto it from my external hard drive without having to modify the default OS? STALKER 2 and FF7 rebirth etc. yes or no?

>>723538471 (OP)
>don't console fags know gaming PCs are expensive?
Well, this one certainly is...

>>723544442
the OS literally just Windows 11 with updated xbox app with full screen experience feature.

>>723544670
OK..... but can you disable this full screen/front end whatever the fuck and run regular windows 11 and install regular game files on it?

>>723544862
yes you can disable to boot up into normal windows

>>723545146
well shit nigger, thats all you had to say! will look for a website to check compatibility with my backlog and then consider picking one of these up

>>723544442
>>723544670
>>723545146
ok nevermind
>benchmarks are all 7 year old games
>they run at 720p30fps
>need FSR
>battery dies after an hour
>but muh indie shit!
yeah nice try. more e waste for the landfill.

>>723538471 (OP)
>this thing smoothly runs everything I throw at it on high settings
'buttery smooth' i'm sure!

>>723543905
Yeah it's easy to do that when you give your customers the least value possible by charging 80$ for indie budget titles that never go on discount on outdated tablets that cost more than your competitors console

>>723546026
Keep coping bitch, Sony doesn't have a prayer in hell to beat Nintendo in early 2028 when Nintendo will have three years on their plate while Sony will be releasing a $600 handheld against Valve's Steam Deck 2 which will actually hit retailers this time at $500-$550 while having Sony's games. Good fucking luck with that. The PS6 home console can't help because that will be either $750 or $800. Only place Sony and Microsoft are going is third party.

>>723546418
You know nothing about what will happen in the next 3 years.
No one cares about the Steam deck running old PS5 games at 20fps at upscaled 600p with everything on low
>The PS6 home console can't help because that will be either $750 or $800
You don't know how much it will cost
>Only place Sony and Microsoft are going is third party.
Why would Sony give up the 136 billion revenue they made in 5 years by skimming off 30% revenue from developers? that would be a retarded business decision
Not to mention they struggle putting out more than 1 game per year so I don't see why they would want to go third party

>>723540503
I fear that if the Asus Xbox Rog Ally is too successful, Xbox will buy Asus and make shitty gaming console pc abominations.
The Ally reminds me of the PS Vita. Everyone hesitated on buying. The thing was an incredible console with some of the most amazing hardware on the market but it went overlooked. The vita was only 300 smackers but well worth it. tendies, manchildren and normies, think they need at least two lame ass consoles at a time, or a ludicrously expensive gaming PC. I think handhelds that double down as a desktop are the chips.
It’s $1000 for a Gaming PC, Tablet and Handheld all-in-one product. If you bought those three things separately with similar specs, it would easily run you more than $1000.

Fuck the steamdeck shit was obsolete on release. DOA TRASH.

>>723546418
I really hope sony’s (rumored) new handheld has good specs again. The vita was awesome but parts for it were rather obscure and there were only two factories (maybe) making aftermarket parts.

>>723538471 (OP)
I actually have a question about it, you need the xbox version of ffxiv to play it on this, yes? also does ffxiv run well?

>>723543837
soon someone will be making recomps most likely.

>>723547187
yes to both

I have an Xbox because I like playing on Xbox. I don’t like playing on PC or mobile. And this think is just a PC that’s mobile. Why the fuck would I pay money for it?

>>723547187
Why are you reddit bormies so fucking stupid. It runs windows. It’s a fucking PC, you retards. It runs Windows games. It uses an APU processor. Get educated you fucking pretending nerds

>>723547283
saar your english?

>>723547283
Your skin is brown.

>>723547264
If you have a tablet, a tendie console, and move around a lot, it’s literally perfect. Even the old Ally X was perfect for college kids. Nobody’s smart enough to take advantage of it. It’s kind of sad.

>>723547316
No, I literally mean you are feigning nerd. You pretend you actually know what the fuck you’re talking about. Vidya dorks are obsessive retards with know significant knowledge about anything. You’re all fucking dumb and just play stupid fucking singleplayer games all day in your mancaves. Fuck off. You can’t recognize a better product when you see one.

>>723547478
I literally have the Xbox app on my phone that lets me stream my console to my phone and play games on it. So… why would I need a $900 thing to do that?

>>723547663
No idea. I never had a stable internet connection in my life. As far as mg internet connectivity goes, I’m brown. I don’t have an Xbox or a gaming desktop PC. I have a shitty used gaming laptop I overpaid for during the pandemic, a steam deck, and a lot of buyers remorse.

>>723547968
Damn I’m sorry to hear that

>>723538471 (OP)
SteamDeckGODs stay winning

>>723548090
Does it have secure boot?

>>723538471 (OP)
This Xbox runs The Last of Us, Spiderman, Ghost of Tsushima, etc.
Sony should have blocked them on steam users using this console.

>>723548278
Any game that requires it is not a game worth playing.

>>723548408
I had fun playing Call Of Duty Black Ops 6 on my ‘eck but wouldn’t mind the extra frames, polygons and battery life I would get on the Ally. It seems the Ally X mogs the ‘eck in every way and you’re breathing pure copium. The ‘eck is a waste of money.

>>723548808
>CoD:BO6 fag
Yeah the allyX is perfect for retards like you.

>>723549196
You’re mad because your europoor AAA games don’t run half as well or have nearly as good of graphics. SAD
