I currently own a PS5 digital and it’s my #1 console that I use all of my time and all of my friends own one as well, however, I’m highly considering picking up an Xbox Series S to solely be my Halo/Bethesda game machine. I haven’t seriously played Halo since 2013 and considering Bethesda is now owned by Microsoft, it just seems like a good idea to get the smaller, affordable console to play those few games and maybe some older Xbox 360 games like FO3, New Vegas, and Oblivion. The Game Pass just makes it all the more alluring as well.

I own a PS5 with disc drive, Switch, and a Xbox One since 2018. I went for that over the One X due to pricing and barely any difference. When you go for PlayStation, I highly recommend the disc drive. Xbox tends to focus more on digital games (they are a software company to begin with) and there is some benefits out of that. Disc games have the better chance for sales, especially for third party. I am not a third party person and do more first party titles. They take longer to drop in price, but digital Xbox titles have a cross buy feature for the PC. Game Pass is also cool, but what happens when the internet goes down. The disc medium saves all of the original data of the game, so you can still play it in case it's no longer on the Xbox store. Its cheap, but I recommend waiting until a price drop on the Series X. I will get the Series S if that also drops, but between 100-200. The Series X until it reaches 300 in two years or som

I just got mine yesterday Here is something that will appeal to a certain group. I am playing Burnout Revenge! I, GLADLY, paid ten bucks and I am so happy. People will say this game was my childhood but it was my midlife crisis! I had been down and out and missed the entire Xbox, Gamecube, PS2 generation of consoles and had never owned a 'gaming PC. In 2006 that began to change. I got an Xbox 360 even after building my first PC from parts. The nostalgia and memories. I have played a lot more online multiplayer in Burnout Revenge than any other game. I am more of an old campaigner. It would be nice if there were a way to play it online again or for this much loved franchised to be revived. The crashes. The music that I wouldn't even like if it wasn't for it being the soundtrack to this game! The traffic checking and drifting can be so satisfying1 Oh yes I am also playing Halo 5 Guardians and loving that too. I have the MCC on PC but it does not include this one. Very much looking forward to playing Halo Infinite and Forza Horizon 5 on PC and Xbox.

You do need to make the new next gen games only run from internal SSD. This is because the game developers then can make game designs that rely on the super-speed (with compression) of the hardware / SSD of the internal and Seagate expansion. It's the same is the PS5. These new higher speed SSD's will allow developers to create more seamless experiences, much less loaning, load on demand things they. may need instead of having a load screen, pause the experience.

This is my official customer-review for you that I left in the comments. I feel this might help you make your decision. “I wanted next-gen for awhile now, did all the research, looked at all the best prices online, and watched a lot of “KZbin reviews” and finally…finally got the Series S a few days ago. 7.6/10 If anyone has questions I’ll be happy to answer. I’m just going to tell you this: if you want to feel like you’re playing on the modern-day console…yeah get the Series S if you can find a final price for it around $320 (Sams club is doing a series s bundle for $350 btw, shipping included takes about 2-3 weeks but without membership they charge extra $40). But if you want to feel like you’re playing on actually next-gen future mode…definitely save up and get the series X if you can find it for around retail price! The Series S is more for people who aren’t too crazy about gaming and just kinda want something more modern around the house. Sure the graphics get better with the S but if you told me this is what I was going to get after waiting 7+ years for a new console to come out…I would have spat in your face 😂. For me the storage it comes with is fine, I have The newest Far Cry games installed, BF5, Apex, Dying Light, and a few other smaller games and still have about 85GB left. When new games come out I’ll just delete the older ones. 60fps is great but when it comes to textures the S lacks big time. The colors are more vibrant forsure but when we’re talking about detail, the S just doesn’t hit that line, and I’m talking about some pretty big details. It’s quiet but the air that comes from the fan gets pretty hot after an hour or two of gaming, I can only see that damaging my Xbox as time goes on, it’ll just get slower and slower eventually making the Series S obsolete. So like I said if you just want something modern, get the S But if you want something TRULY next-gen-alien-witchcraft-y-worth-your-money, then get the SeriesX or wait for Ps5 pro-edition.”

Personally I still much prefer my series x (of course), as I need my 4k and bigger SSD storage. 4k at 60 or 120fps is on a whole other level. But playing with the series s, I do have to say it's a great little beastie. 1440p or even 1080p is plenty for most people, and higher framerate is awesome. If you are not addicted to slightly higher graphics and 4K like me, the series s is a very very good choice.

And having watched this video and seeing that I could also play Marrowwind and Stalker 2 has just made me think this is a good idea even more. Im still gonna get a ps5 the moment that I can. Bit the Seris S just seems like too good of an option to pass up.

I bought the series S just last week, which came with 3 months of game pass out of the box. I also bought the Seagate SSD separately, which came with 2 months of game pass. So here I am, getting five months of game pass for free. I’m playing with my 4 TB SSD installed and linked up. Playing on my 4K TV, which I can play up to 1660 P on some games. 1440 P for other standard games. Ray tracing and dual shadow casting is included. P.S., you can set up the series S for up to 120 FPS with the right TV.

I’ve been on PS since day one and not being able to get my hands on a PS5 I felt like I was missing out. It was only through watching youtube I came across the series S. I was confused in thinking how the hell it was considered a next gen console for £250 and I could go to a store and just pick one up. I took the plunge and bought one. The only thing I was impressed with was the frame rate and loading times. The TV I had was HDMI 2.0. Wanting to get the most out of the Xbox I bought a tv with HDMI 2.1 and a 2.1 HDMI cable, and oh my God it was a game changer. Literally!!. This little white console is an absolute beast. I was curious to see what GTA 5 looked like and I’m not joking it blew me away. The series S is worth every penny, and more.

I just got a Series S at Walmart today but haven't opened it yet. I want a Series X of course but for now a Series S is fine for me just because I really want to play Flight Simulator when it comes to Gamepass tomorrow. I have a Xbox One X for my physical disc as of right now so mostly will be using Series S for Gamepass and my digital Xbox One games. Though I heard something like Gears of War 5 (my One X was Gears of War bundle with the five games digitally) is probably still best on Xbox One X due to One X enhancement.

So ima lay it down for y’all real quick: I wanted next-gen for awhile now, did all the research, looked at all the best prices online, and watched a lot of “KZbin reviews” and finally…finally got the Series S a few days ago. 7.6/10 If anyone has questions I’ll be happy to answer. I’m just going to tell you this: if you want to feel like you’re playing on the modern-day console…yeah get the Series S if you can find a final price for it around $320 (Sams club is doing a series s bundle for $350 btw, shipping included takes about 2-3 weeks but without membership they charge extra $40). But if you want to feel like you’re playing on actually next-gen future mode…definitely save up and get the series X if you can find it for around retail price! The Series S is more for people who aren’t too crazy about gaming and just kinda want something more modern around the house. Sure the graphics get better with the S but if you told me this is what I was going to get after waiting 7+ years for a new console to come out…I would have spat in your face 😂. For me the storage it comes with is fine, I have The newest Far Cry games installed, BF5, Apex, Dying Light, and a few other smaller games and still have about 85GB left. When new games come out I’ll just delete the older ones. 60fps is great but when it comes to textures the S lacks big time. The colors are more vibrant forsure but when we’re talking about detail, the S just doesn’t hit that line, and I’m talking about some pretty big details. It’s quiet but the air that comes from the fan gets pretty hot after an hour or two of gaming, I can only see that damaging my Xbox as time goes on, it’ll just get slower and slower eventually making the Series S obsolete. So like I said if you just want something modern, get the S But if you want something TRULY next-gen-alien-witchcraft-y-worth-your-money, then get the SeriesX or wait for Ps5 pro-edition.
