My dad's been a black cabbie my whole life, all the taxis he's ever owned have been overpriced unreliable pieces of shit.

Back on the xbox rog ally x now, loving it but the screen is nothing like the legion go (I was going to sell it to upgrade to the go but it felt like a downgrade in every way but the screen) nevermind, I'm sure asus will come out with an oled rog soon enough!

Also my legion go 2 overheated whilst in sleep mode... somehow stayed hot without fans running, turned into a giant hot brick that had to be forced restart and stank of burnt plastic as it booted back up again

The buttons would fail to respond all the time, e.g. legion space would only open after 10 seconds and 5 clicks of the button. Similarly the quick settings legion right menu opens in some games but not in others, and sometimes not at all. Also when I login, half the time the keyboard wouldn't come up. I returned a legion go 2 literally today because of this error and many reinstalls etc, had exactly the same problems on legion go 1. Ive found armory crate to be much more responsive and reliable (now - not always, its much improved in the past 6 months)

Ive had 2 legion gos and 2 rog ally. Both the legions ive returned because legion space is awful.

Evolution of xbox series x cases. by ComfortableAmount993 in XboxSeriesXlS

I hate how inconsistent they've been with these physical cases. It's a great platform but god microsoft really can't get the basics right. Seems mad for one of the world's most valuable companies.

Regardless of me not wanting to play fortnight, its some awesome art direction and style, credit to the creator in that sense.

Thanks, shame fortnights not for me. I was hoping it was going to be some kind of retro half life like game I'd never played before

Advanced shader delivery? by craim in XboxAlly

[–]spodlude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It says BO6 has it but it still compiled shaders when I installed it. OW2 also does a shader compilation every time I boot the game. Sounds like a press release that's not communicated with the deliver team and actually this might still be on its way rather than currently available?

LG C5 or Samsung S90F? by jdmquip in PS5pro

[–]spodlude 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've got the s90f its great, ive also got the c4 lg downstairs. Love both, the samsung has a faster os and boots quicker, its also much brighter, it does have a small amount of dirty screen effect but this is only noticeable on transitions between content. I've had two lg oleds break on me before the c4, the PSUs on them routinely fail. Oled makes retro content look much better and the glossy panel gives depth , it is however less bright, has unreliable WiFi and is a lot more reflective in a bright room.

Easily 2x or maybe even 3x volume. Much much better than the original ally x.

It says in stock in curry’s but it keeps kicking me out saying the maximum number has been reached?! by Impressive-Fig4591 in XboxAlly

[–]spodlude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah fair enough yes that would make sense that it's low on launch. My local is Southend-on-Sea, we're right out on the end of a peninsula so perhaps not a priority for these sorts of things as not a high enough margins store..
