The Acer Nitro 11, which debuted at CES 2025, is a beast of a gaming handheld, but its battery capacity is disappointing. After originally showcasing the Acer Nitro Blade 7 back at IFA last year, which I found to be pretty promising in my hands-on preview, Acer has now launched two new handhelds to add to its collection at CES 2025. Thankfully, I managed to get my hands on the Acer Nitro Blaze 11 at the event in Las Vegas to see if bigger really does mean better.

Dec 18, 2024 | techopedia.com | Jasmine Mannan

Alien: Rogue Incursion is a good game with a few fatal flaws. Decent and scary gameplay is let down by poor graphics and overcomplicated mechanics. While these issues persist, they can be looked past for those who really want to get stuck into the latest VR title from Survios.

On the other hand, you may also find monotonous storylines and frustrating gunplay, which can be overlooked by some. This is a shooter that’s hard to recommend right now.
