Gaming laptops used to be a bit of a punchline, but we’re long past the point where desktop elites can scoff at them. So, why not go all-in and make one that has a full controller built right into the body?

The Acer DualPlay is a chunky gaming laptop when closed and keeps that look when opened, plus it has a huge amount of RGB bling.
