In case you missed it, IGN Live was a jam-packed fan event that IGN hosted in LA last weekend. With entertainment, gaming and tech activations across the in-person venue, plus panels, interviews and exclusive trailer drops shown across three stages, there was something for everyone to enjoy.
One of my favorite things about IGN Live is the in-person giveaways at the main stage. There were thousands of prizes given away over the two-day event, and people were super hyped. Best Buy helped us run our own gameshow to give away cool tech to contestants on the spot with a “Name That Price” game (see video below).
If you missed out on all the fun, I’m here to round up some of the top products we had on-site at IGN Live, courtesy of Best Buy, which you can still check out and order online today.

More Best Buy Tech Shown at IGN Live
In addition to the giveaway items shown in the Name That Price IGN Live stage game above, there’s a ton of tech Best Buy had on site at our event. Here’s the top products you could’ve seen on the showfloor and can still shop online today.
Samsung 65” Class QN80F Series Neo
Lenovo – Legion 7i 16″ 2.5k OLED Gaming Laptop
The Legion 7 is Lenovo’s flagship laptop series, featuring a full aluminum (lid and chassis) construction and weighing in at just 4.5 pounds. It is configured with a 16″ OLED display with 2.5K 189ppi resolution and 165Hz refresh rate.
As tech deals’ writer Eric Song mentions in earlier coverage: “This particular system is also decked out in a rare “Glacier White” color scheme which, in my opinion, looks better than the standard black. The RTX 5060 (mobile) is about 15%-20% more powerful than the RTX 4060 that it replaces and approaches the performance of the RTX 4070. It supports the newer DLSS 4 technology with multi-frame generation, which widens the performance gap in games that support it. It’s a good GPU to pair with the 1600p display and should run most games at that resolution.”
ASUS – ROG GM700 Gaming Desktop
Razer – Basilisk V3 Pro 35K Optical Gaming Mouse
If you’re in the market for a new gaming mouse, this is a top choice according to our tech experts. Michael Higham calls it “an all-around banger since it’s nearly identical to its V3 Pro (non-35K) counterpart.”
Razer – Blackshark V2 Hyperspeed Wireless Over-the-Ear Gaming Headset
Razer – BlackWidow V4 Pro Keyboard
Legion Go S 8″ 120Hz Gaming Handheld
ROG Xbox Ally X 7″ FHD 120Hz Gaming Handheld
The Asus ROG Xbox Ally X is the most powerful handheld gaming PC you can get, and tech writer, Jacqueline Thomas sums it up quite well in her Xbox Ally X review:
“The Asus ROG Xbox Ally X is a fascinating little device. Because while it’s being sold as a sort of handheld Xbox, it’s more of a sequel to last year’s incredible Asus ROG Ally X. But the Xbox side of it can’t be ignored, because it’s the first device to launch with support for the new Xbox Full Screen Experience. This allows the handheld to boot straight into the Xbox App within Windows, without loading Explorer or any of the non-gaming-related background tasks that typically load when you boot up Windows 11. In a lot of ways, this partnership feels like Microsoft’s response to the rise of the SteamOS, and for the first time since the Steam Deck came out in 2022 it might actually have something that’s as easy to use.”
