    I don’t think the size difference works in the favour of lmg.

    If gamers nexus puts out pretty much industry leading day one reviews out on every launch with 5-6 people and LMG with labs and 100+ employees can’t then there’s something wrong.

    GN has a point LMG shits out videos without QC and it’s starting to bite them of late. The water block review is the perfect example of just being stupid. Why not just test the item with the right product and judge it for what it is as opposed to turning it into a joke review where no matter what the product is going to look bad.

    The short circuit thing with the mouse is also a bit ridiculous.

    But the charts are the main thing, I’ve noticed it myself over the years that lmg charts made no sense relative to gamers nexus or HUb or even jayz 2 cents which meant something was wrong with the testing.










  • I had an Aya Neo 2 at work the other day so here’s my brief take on it from an experience perspective.

    All the other hand held PC’s that aren’t the steamdeck are just that, hand held PC’s. When you reset or reinstall windows you have no drivers have to plug in a keyboard and mouse to get a driver package of about 19 different things before it’s usable then you need to install Aya Neo Space and have that auto launch at startup so that you somewhat get a hand held console experience.

    The deck by contrast is just a single recovery image that is good to go and just works.

    So I’d say if you want something that just works well buy a steamdeck while it may have less games than the others it truly is a pick up and play experience, if you want to tinker look into the others however I’d suggest you avoid the Ally due to the melting SD card issue for now.



  • Some of us have very good reasons for pirating, I was paying for every service under the sun in the UK last year and I dropped them all simply because the moment I went on holiday practically none of them worked. At that point, I realised that they just weren’t worth it and I could build something out and self-host a far better service.

    So I spent something like 2 grand doing that knowing at least I’ll never have that issue again, Piracy is always a service issue first and foremost and most of these services are crap. Netflix still at least has a reasonable interface and a good experience across every device but Prime video is atrocious, P+ is likewise terrible and don’t ever get me started on NowTV.
