I simply refuse to believe that is true.

Regarding the ROG Ally and the Steam Deck, I never wanted to kick off the cosnole wars. They're both fantastic machines. I do think that people have kind of missed how good the Ally is, though. It's the sort of thing I personally have been dreaming of since the days of the PSP.

Which must have been at least five years ago.

It warms my cold withered heart that @cavalcade and @"big mean bunny" have joined me on the ROG Ally bandwagon. I was thinking about this the other day - if you choose to consider it to be a console, then it has to be the greatest console ever made. The "library" is absolutely ridiculous, and the access to games and price are equally amazing. Once you take that into account, the Steam Deck is the only competition, and that is a (small) step down in power, and doesn't have access to the PC Game Pass or the Epic Games Store with all it's free games we've been accumulating for years. Obviously the battery life is crap, but I've personally eliminated that problem with a big high capacity portable battery that can charge the machine two or three times over, so if I ever do want to play it out and about, I just need to have that thing in my coat pocket.

I saw the listing on rllmuk that you bought, cav. I'm envious of the price, but then I got a nearly new PS5 for like £250 with two controllers, so it's not like I haven't also reaped the benefit of the strange habits of people who spend a fortune on consumer electronics and don't use them.

Incidentally, does anyone want a steam code for Sam Barlow's Immortality? I have a spare.

the mobile Epic Store

Not available in the UK. One of the many Brexit Benefits we now enjoy.

Yes it is. It's not on the play store, you have to go to Epic's website, but it downloads and works fine. I've got it on my phone and Odin 2, and both Kotor games on each as a result.
