I like their flashy keyboards, but for mice, I stick to Logitech myself :D. Anyway, looking foward to it...whatever Razer makes, it's always interesting.

Eurgh, it's probably that Switchblade thing that won't run anything unless it's 8 years old, way to show how great PC gaming is guys! I've never really liked Razer that much, they make good stuff but their style is just horrible, it plays into that whole "All PC gamers want LED's on everything and cool words like Xtreme will sell products to them!"

PC gaming is not dead yet? Many consolites claimed it to be dead in several threads. :o In all serious note, PC gaming is not going to go anywhere. You need a medium to create games and only one system can do it, PC.

I swear if it's the Switchblade still using that crappy intel atom they're really going to make themselves look bad.

How many threads about this are necassary? It's quite obvious that PC gaming isn't dead.

turtlethetaffer

On top of this it would hypothetically be the last to die because nearly everyone has some type of computer which can play some type of game.

as far as PC gaming being dead, you'll do better if you do research outside of this forum.

Maybe it's that portable gaming device prototype they showed off a while back? Maybe they're finally bringing it to market.Merex760

Switchblade

Yeah, the Switchblade. Man, if they release that thing, I'm SOLD!

Dude, pretty much every gaming accessory is marketed like that.

Also, Razer Deathadder looks pretty awesome, although I am using Logitech right now.

If they use Atom, it'll be almost as limited of use as tablets.

I don't care much about their more gimmicky products but Blackwidow is an excellent KB and Deathadder is a great mouse.

We don't need to remind people that PC gaming is going strong. It's something that is implied, hence debate among consoles rather than debate among PC and consoles.

If it still uses atom its dead on arrival unless it super cheap and i doubt it will be amd apu would be much better for a portable device

Yeah AMD APU would give a much better price to performance ratio then a crappy atom. The I hear the prototype atom is only like 15% more powerful then the most powerful one on the market currently.

It seems people would only buy it just to rip off the keyboard if it still had atom in it.

I would make use of the touch screen, though. Something like a second screen for steam chat, icons, etc.

Read... Original... Post!

This is a marketing campaign for a Razer product announcement, not an anti "PC gaming is dying" thread.

Isn't it weird that you never actually hear anyone say PC gaming is dead, but then we always hear that its "totally NOT dead" from the PC community?

Its like, no one said it was.

6.9 lbs. Portable my butt. And how can they put a measley gt 555m in a 17" form factor? You're better off with a real gaming laptop @ 15" instead.

Seriously, this is one of the more pathetic announcements I remember seeing lately. You can get a laptop with a GT 555M that weighs less for under $800.

PC gaming isn't dead, but this thing surely will be. Who the hell is gonna pay $2800 for a laptop?
