Steam
Steam is a digital distribution service and storefront for video games and software, developed by Valve Corporation and launched in September 2003 for Windows, expanding to macOS in 2010 and Linux in 2013. It enables users to purchase, download, and manage games, offering features like matchmaking, cloud storage, update maintenance, and social networking. Steamworks, an API released in 2008, allows developers to integrate features including DRM. With over 120 million active monthly users, it is considered a leading PC game distribution service
Steam Deck White Edition
Let’s face it, the original Steam Deck, which launched in 2022 (I preordered it with $5), kicked off a PC handheld gaming revolution.
Weekend Gamer: Legion Go, ROG Ally, and MSI Claw at Target and Castlevania Anniversary Collection
I was surprised to see that all three Windows devices, the MSI Claw, the Lenovo Legion Go, and the Asus ROG Ally were all in stock (two each) at my semi-local Target Super Store. To be perfectly honest, this is the first time I have seen the Legion Go or the Claw in a retail store, and I was really excited. Not crazy about the prices, both the Legion Go and Claw are $700 and the ROG Ally is $500 (but keep in mind this is last year’s “Non-Extreme” version).

If you have Amazon Prime, they’ve been giving away a ton of GOG (and some Epic Games) titles about three months ago. If you haven’t gone there recently head over to gaming.amazon.com and pick up about 50 free video games!
Dragon Age: The Veilguard
I previously mentioned that Dragon Age: Dreadwolf coming out in early 2025…. Well, there’s a couple of changes since then. Electronic Arts (EA) announced that the name is now called Dragon Age: The Veilguard, and it is coming out October 31, 2024.

When I wrote about MSI Claw, joining the Steam Deck, ROG Ally, and Legion Go, in January 2024, I basically said it was “too little and too late.”

JSAUX RGB Docking Station
I recently purchased the new JSAUX RGB Docking Station, a 12-in-1 dock, meant for the Steam Deck, ROG Ally, and Legion Go… based on the white variant and the holographic sticker, that I feel they specifically designed it for the ROG Ally (to match its white plastic and RGB lighting).

Weekend Gamer Update: Memorial Day Weekend
It’s Memorial Day Weekend, which means I have this Monday off and it’s a long weekend for me. As usual with these holidays, there are a lot of sales and deals all across retailers. I’m planning on going to a few Half-Priced Books to take advantage of their 20% instore purchases. The problem with HPB is that their stocks are limited and are vastly different from store to store. You never know what you are going to see, day to day, store to store.

The Last of Us
I love the video game The Last of Us, probably my personal Game of the Year in 2018 for the PS3. The game was so good, that I re-purchased it for the PS4. I probably would’ve have bought the PS5 version if it wasn’t so hard to find the Sony console. I kid, I saw one at a retail store, but am waiting for a “slim” or new version. I absolutely hate the look and massive size of the current PS5 console (I think it’s ugly).
