PGS Windows 10 gaming handheld - GPD WIN competitor


Looks like they're finally admitting to some of their bullshit, even if not directly.
Still, if they intend to really make this, I rather them make a clamshell in the same vein as Nokia's old Communicator phones. Do the dual screen thing but only on the top half; one screen out and one screen in. Also remove the bottom screen and just put in a keyboard.
Still, the farkery they displayed while under attack and scrutiny just shows that they still can't be trusted.
 
I kinda think that they really are trying to come up with something, but it will be far different from the first super-cool 3D renders.
 
It's been a while happy new year and also what do you think about thé SWITCH? It look epic the only problem is the launch window also think about a vaio p gaming laptop
 
Happy New Year! I am certainly intrigued by the Switch, although I will admit that it is a system of compromises. It's still a bit underpowered for a home console and rather large for a portable handheld. But it certainly fills a gap that I had hoped Sony would address with the PS Vita. The biggest question will be games and support. If third parties don't or can't bring their AAA titles to it like they do the PS4 and Xbox One, then it's not going to do very well. It may be more successful that the Wii U, but Nintendo can't keep going it alone and it knows it. It's also not very general purpose like some of the other devices being discussed here, so it would probably be better off in its own discussion thread.
 
Bingo. My fault for not looking for the existing thread to link to. Sorry about that.
Don't worry about it. The thing I don't get though is why darkmaximus9 started a conversation about the Switch in the PGS thread!? Even if he hadn't seen the Switch thread, it's hardly PGS related. Guess that's me using logic on the internet again...
 
It's just plain wood colour, but it houses a variety of garden implements, not unlike the PGS device.
 
Damn, back on topic.

Are those slidey hinge things suppose to be plastic? I can see those being a weak point and problematic in many ways, like pinching, or coins sliding in there when it is in a pocket and scratching the second screen up.

They'll be made out of unobtanium.
 
Hey, this thread is still active? Awesome! Outside of the "(bad)joke appreciation corner", this thread has brought me the most laughs. Where do I start? Looks like their Facebook page has been taken down or moved - that link don't work no mo'. I love what little info they have given....it's a good read. I haven't had that many chuckles in a while. I can't believe that after getting booted by Kickstarter, that they'd somehow be able to extract $800,000 from some other rube's wallets. It's unfathomable.

Just look at one of their most recent photos. Built by gamers for gamers? Truly? How can you play games on such a device where your thumbs are smushing against the swivel/base of the screen? Luckily, like all of their other "design changes" - these are just renders and will never see the light of day. Come on PGS, you can deceive us better than that.
 
i would have bought one except that they used broken d-pad buttons instead of a full cross (one solid button).
and the fact that it's trying to do too many things at once. and that it's windows... and that it's vaporware at best, scamware more likely...
does that turn anyone else away from a gadget?
 
^^^ That's hilarious. Not that your preference(s) aren't right, but that it would hinder you from buying the end-all-be-all of handheld units. It slices, it dices... who knows what it will do next? Send them an email/post and they'll put it in a feature just for you. I'd mention ditching the broken d-pad button thingie for a solid cross button.*


*I also agree with you. My PSP and Pandora are like that and it does make a difference to me as well.
 
That number could be bullshit in hopes that they can squeeze a bit more out of the people that haven't fallen for it already. If people really did send them that much then I guess I should get in on that racket. Anyone want to help me put together a fundraising scampaign?
 
only if we can call it a scamraising funpaign in our internal logs. you know, to confuse the hackers.

(or fundpaign, not sure which i prefer.)
