Having a Pip-Boy in and out of the Fallout universe is all well and good, but as a gadget it has its own limitations and its price in the real world more or less equivalent to that of a portable game console. Why not combine the best of both worlds, reduce the price and add the versatility of a PC? MSI has taken this into account and has not only announced a themed edition of his Claw. However, unless you are a big fan of the saga, you’ll probably be interested in waiting a little longer. The one who warns is not a traitor and we will explain why.
First things first, on the occasion of COMPUTEX 2024 MSI has presented new features through its stand, especially highlighting thea MSI Claw A1M -Fallout 4 limited edition. For practical purposes, it is the same one that has only been on sale for a few months with the claim that its units are very few and, we are not going to deny it, they have applied more than just four logos to the case: the color, the wear and even the buttons and sticks have been customized to please fans of Bethesda’s apocalyptic RPG. Even the rear slits look like they need a wipe down!
The thing goes beyond what we have in our hands and, of course, has the official Bethesda license. But the most fun thing is that a series of unique designs inspired by the aforementioned Pip-Boys of the Páramo from any of the game’s installments have been added to its seven-inch screen. A whim? If you like Fallout, of course. But if what you’re really interested in is the MSI Claw itself, you should know that the manufacturer has already announced a review of its laptop: day Claw 8 AI+.
What we know about the MSI Claw 8 AI+ portable system
What strengthens the identity of MSI Claw compared to the alternatives of Steam Deck and ROG Ally , the big step forward for the Claw 8 AI+ portable system involves the use of ultra processors whose code name is Lunar Lake.
Without official images offered, MSI has confirmed that the Intel ultra processors announced today will give more scope (as can be guessed from the name itself) to improving the gaming experience through Artificial Intelligence. However, they are just one of the new features announced – we know that the screen will become 8 inchesthe sensations of the LB and RB buttons will be improved, there will be more battery capacity and at least one of the USB-Cs will be Thunderbolt 4.
With this, MSI joins the trend of ASUS and Valve of offering an updated system without being a redesign or a complete generational leap with very little margin compared to the release of the original. Which does not overshadow another reality: as we mentioned, the MSI Claw went on sale on April 1. Either time passes too quickly, or the manufacturer goes straight for it.
In any case, everyone making their move almost at the same time is relatively natural: PC and cloud gaming has become the epicenter of almost all of today’s big releases, including those from Microsoft and PlayStation. And until Nintendo makes a move with the successor to the Nintendo Switch, there is ample room to fully enter and satisfy consumers who are as demanding as those with mouse and keyboard, but who prefer to play their favorite obsessions lying on the couch. .
