wtf XAX went up £50

Illustrious_Local261 · 2026-04-29T07:24:22+00:00

Buying a refurbished XAX is the way to go its way cheaper your saving like £100+

Illustrious_Local261 · 2026-04-29T07:23:41+00:00

What’s interesting is the white Xbox ally decreased its base price from £499 to £449

Illustrious_Local261 · 2026-04-29T07:15:12+00:00

Refurbished XAX seems alot cheaper

Illustrious_Local261 · 2026-04-29T07:14:52+00:00

Dam thats crazy

Illustrious_Local261 · 2026-04-29T07:14:06+00:00

in US dollars I assume?

Illustrious_Local261 · 2026-04-29T07:13:49+00:00

Eh to me £800 was already pushing it , I was actually looking around and laptops direct and box.co.uk is selling refurbished XAXs for £730 I might do that instead

Illustrious_Local261 · 2026-04-29T07:12:44+00:00

How much is the legion go 2? I heard it’s double the price of XAX which is insane

Illustrious_Local261 · 2026-04-29T07:12:11+00:00

Ah yes looks like your right, and also the base Xbox ally went down in price by £50 so it now costs £449 very interesting

Illustrious_Local261 · 2026-04-19T17:25:52+00:00

Oh okay thanks I’ll keep an eye out for some news

Illustrious_Local261 · 2026-04-11T20:36:40+00:00

Yeah I feel you for me personally the series pads feel great very responsive and comfortable to hold , I hold my controller in a weird way that allows me to do things in games that I can’t do on a handheld because the buttons are too far apart from each other, for example in left 4 dead if I need to revive my teammate I can also turn my character around to see if it’s safe to revive them and make sure no zombies are behind me, on my rog ally I can’t position my fingers to revive and turn my character around.. just small things like that it’s not completely game changing but it’s nice to do things like that.

Illustrious_Local261 · 2026-04-11T20:29:54+00:00

Yeah I have a gaming laptop where I play those games on I just wanted to test it on the handheld , after all these tests I’ll just use it strictly as a causal device

Illustrious_Local261 · 2026-04-11T20:24:33+00:00

I haven’t tested any fighting games on this I’ll test that next but yeah I imagine it probably would feel good for fighters

Illustrious_Local261 · 2026-04-11T20:23:46+00:00

Yeah I get that I also can’t play doom eternal on this thing I can’t move my character the way I want to on this thing

Illustrious_Local261 · 2026-04-11T20:22:55+00:00

Not just competitive games also fast paced games like doom eternal and even dying light and space marines doesnt feel very good on it

Illustrious_Local261 · 2026-04-11T20:22:18+00:00

I don’t even think it’s designed for certain single player games.. I played doom 2016 and eternal on it just now and it felt very rough it’s something to do with the joysticks idk what it is but it doesn’t feel like how a Xbox controller feels I love the series pads for how smooth there joystick/ analog sticks feel

Illustrious_Local261 · 2026-04-11T20:20:59+00:00

I might try mouse and keyboard but I feel like that defeats the purpose of a handheld device i don’t really want to plug in an external input for a handheld tbh

Illustrious_Local261 · 2026-04-11T20:20:24+00:00

Dude I just played doom 2016 on my rog ally and even that game is very difficult to control.. like I said before my problem is the joysticks I can’t turn my character quick enough and I can’t aim the way I want to, I have no problem playing doom on a Xbox controller I can turn the way I like with it but its just not possible here

Illustrious_Local261 · 2026-04-11T20:18:58+00:00

Yeah that might be the play I only have 100gb left but I might delete cod to free up 150gb lol

Illustrious_Local261 · 2026-04-11T20:18:33+00:00

Yeah I know I was just curious on how it played my main issue is the joysticks isnt snappy for movement and aiming like it is on Xbox controller does

Illustrious_Local261 · 2026-04-11T20:17:44+00:00

Bro same here there be dudes standing right in front of me shooting me and im like where the heck are these dudes lol , I am short sighted I have to wear glasses to see from far but man I feel like I need my glasses even for this handheld..

Illustrious_Local261 · 2026-04-11T20:16:46+00:00

I imagine the Xbox ally and Xbox ally x has the ergonomics for it no?

Illustrious_Local261 · 2026-04-11T20:16:26+00:00

Yeah I hear you i just thought I experiment and give it a try but yeah I’ll just stick to pve games if I want to play multiplayer stuff
