idk i got xbox series s for 250 and it complements my gaming pc pretty well

The one you’re referring is an Asus ROG Ally branded Xbox, but it uses the exact same Asus hardware since it’s made by Asus. There’s nothing different from the original ROG Ally, except for the much higher price caused by the Xbox branding. The combined services are already available on the current ROG Ally, which is nothing more than a handheld PC, not a console. Paying $600 just for the Xbox logo is nonsense.

The combined services are nothing more than shortcuts to the game service launchers, something that’s already available on the current ROG Ally and similar porable pc's and on any PC

he referring to Rog Ally Xbox

yes
its great for 1080p gaming at its price point

you cant get close to building a good 1080p gaming pc for that much

I refer to a xbox series x, which was introduced first in 2020, costs 600€ new in september 2025, at almost the generations end of life. I just think, its too expensive.

They usually go on sale for the holidays. I got them for GoldenEye 007 and Perfect Dark XBLA Rare Replay but were like half what they are right now.

still no

this is the lowest i would go on a new build
https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/Rc6hfd
Total: £770.66

but the console will always play games released for it
even a launch xbox one can play the latest xbox series titles by cloud play with gamepass

a handheld is no option for me.

Get a second hand gaming PC at this point, once you add a second controller and xbox sub and better headset etc (the financial impact is quite a lot) you may as well buy a second hand gaming PC.

Also games are cheaper on PC and you can do more on a PC
