A: I dont recommend this one. To be honest save money and get the xbox rog ally x. I was trying to play some ps2 game and this xbox rog ally was struggling
Q: where is your store locations?
A: Google Maps my friend
A: It wont mirror your series x exactly, but it will utilize cross saves and whatnot. But not all titles are playable across both systems. Some games are pc only. So if anything, you will gain more access to more games you didnt have before. As far as sign in, yes, you can use your xbox sign in and your ea games sign in. Its what i do on my pc at home, and on my rog ally with the Z1E processor and my daughfers series x. Im using the same log in on all 3 devices.

Almost perfect!!! I really didn’t want to spend the $1K for the X but the processing power isn’t what I thought it would be with the Z2a If the steam deck is the direct competitor, then I’d say get a steam deck instead or go for the X BUT with all that said, I’m very happy with this! It’s a fantastic little portable PC and it’s been so much fun playing my games and then picking up where I left off on my PC with steam! The newer games will run and test your system like NBA 2K26 runs so hot and at full 30 watts power But I just played a couple of hours of Sniper Elite V2 and Kingdom Hearts 2.5 at 1080p with 60 frames or more with ultra settings!!! Well KH might’ve been a little lower than ultra! But Sniper Elite ran around 90-100 FPS when I dropped the resolution to 720p and you don’t sacrifice a lot of resolution as it keeps a very well looking game on screen and the extra FPS looks gorgeous! But yeah, if you’re not looking for crazy power this system is fantastic! Oh and definitely get a SD card for more storage or buy a SSD and clone that! I’m gonna get at least a 2TB SSD to clone and leave in my system!

I recently picked up the ROG Ally and was genuinely impressed. The 120Hz display makes games look stunning, and performance is consistently smooth with no overheating issues. It feels premium in hand, with responsive controls that make it ideal for gaming on the go or docked to a monitor. While the battery life could be better, the overall power and portability more than make up for it—this compact device is a serious gaming machine.

I picked up the ROG Ally recently, and it’s way better than I expected. Games look amazing on the 120Hz screen, and it runs everything super smooth without overheating. The build feels premium, the controls are solid, and it’s perfect for gaming on the go or plugged into a monitor. The battery could be better, but honestly, the performance makes up for it—it’s a tiny beast of a gaming rig.
