I have xbox series s like 3 years ago I have a pc but I'm thinking to buy xbox series x or I'll wait for gta 6 to release

[@CaptainThunder]

Mirror🙂😁

[@mananalwadhi9011]

Series S + Gamepass is the best value for money deal imo. It's crazy how much it offers for casual gamers Even leaving out gamepass, it's still pretty good. Rocking mine since 2022 and still going strong 💪

[@AWAISPLAYSIT]

I’m also getting one soon 🥰😍 I think it’s best for it price . And btw do you get 120 fps in Fortnite ??? And games run smooth ??? Warzone ?

[@ReyezReaper13]

​@NCRIGHTT yes u get 120 in fort and warzone is smooth

[@asdf-1234-asdf]

Couple it With Microsoft/Xbox rewards.

[@UltimaBeastDBZ]

Same here I’ve had the white version then I went to the carbon black for a TB and it is awesome

[@FormulaProg]

Not anymore it's not with all the price increases.

[@mohamedrafik9271]

I like how this is a real review from an ordinary person, because other youtubers keep bashing on this console as like everyone can afford the series X and a 4k tv xd. I have a good gaming pc, but my friend can't afford series X yet so he is going to buy the series S to play Black Ops 6 together, which is pretty nice!

[@tyicbranch2734]

Your definitely right It took me months to save up for a 55inch tcl brand 4k qled TV with HDR10 and it was only $400 on sale last year This Christmas I'm buying my girlfriend the series s she's new to gaming

[@mvrcielxgo]

I mean there’s totally different kinds of gamers, casuals and more competitive gamers. Most people don’t realize they don’t need to play on 4K when 1440 120 fps is good

[@tyicbranch2734]

@@mvrcielxgo I totally agree for Me games with slow movement or story games I like higher graphics sometimes I switch between both but game's like call of duty high FPS is a must or even game's like elden right high FPS is nice. my girlfriend started gaming for around 6 months I made her a gaming set up the other day I bought her an Xbox series s with a gaming monitor she's just waiting for a desk to arrive and she's extremely happy with just 1440p graphics and we got everything on sale because of black Friday I like 4k for some games but these days on new cheaper TVs or gaming monitors on 1440p game's still looks amazing I recommend 1440p actually

[@tyicbranch2734]

@@mvrcielxgo I'd say 1440p with 120fps is the best option it's cheaper also even pc player's mostly do the same apparently there's more people with 1080p PC's that what there is people with 4k I made my girlfriend a set up she's a new gamer she really likes the Xbox series s with a gaming monitor she's getting 1440p with 120fps on the series s for most online games I like having the option for 4k because some story games are just graphically but have low FPS but it's definitely not needed especially on any new TV that's 1440p graphics

[@RockyLaRosa]

You can upscale to 4K btw, and movies are 4k just like on all other xbox consoles

[@D.K.M.Espers]

This just sealed it for me to get the 1TB digital Series X. I fell out of love with PC, and am genuinely excited to get back into console gaming.

[@alexharmanas4034]

Series S is a great console for the money, is a great console for a casual gamer. One thing I would recommend: don't keep it like that on a carpet - you are blocking the air intake so it can overheat. And it can get dusty inside a lot faster. Better put it on the desk / furniture!

[@victorkelly8953]

Yea it bothered me too😅

[@itsjustques]

I got one yesterday, i currently have it elevated on a shoebox is tht too low?

[@alexharmanas4034]

@@itsjustques It doesn't matter how high or low it is. From my perspective, it's important to allow a good airflow that is not blocked by textiles and that it's as dust-free as possible.

[@dustindixon6628]

I just recently bought 2 Series S's after thinking I was going into PC gaming. Truth is while PC gaming is great for people who love sitting at a desk and paying full price for games, a Series S is better for me. Game Pass doesn't just offer "Free" games but deals on paid games, that are much better than Steam and Playstation deals. I love my two Series S's. I've tried 65in TV play and a 32in 1440p 120hz gaming, I prefer the 60hz gaming with a bigger screen since most games are 30/60fps. So yeah I love My Xbox Series S's.

[@svenstylesz]

I'm a PC Gamer and never pay Fullprice because of Steam Sales and PC GamePass xD

[@dustindixon6628]

@@svenstylesz thats nice. I think you didn't take the hint I don't like sitting at a desk on a grand or more worth of hardware. lol

[@cool-soap]

mate, you do you. however i feel as if your argument doesn't make sense. lets just get the obvious out of the way: you can use an PC on a TV. as long you have the HDMI or DisplayPort wire with a HDMI adapter if necessary. hell, I'm using Linux, and yet there hasn't been much issue on that front specifically. You could use a wireless mouse and keyboard setup for clicking a few buttons here & there. There's also Steams big picture mode, now admittedly it's a little bit laggy on my end. but thats more my OS & aging Hardware. as for gamepass... I'm probably going to lose you here tbh. there's this thing called piracy. Realistically speaking as long as you do the research (or stick with fitpack girl & VPN), and are willing to do a quick virus scan on Malwarebytes. or worst case scenario-a full reset. you can't beat free. as for buying computer Hardware; fair enough...sort of. unless your going for native 4K-240 FPS. It is EXTREMELY unnecessary to spend no more than a thousand dollars for hopefully the next 10 to 20 years. There's also the fact that online PC gaming is free, whereas consoles need an online subscription to play with your friends. Calculating the numbers, 120 dollars a year. Maybe less if you do Microsoft Bing Rewards. it'll, over time. in a 10 year mark. be... incredibly expensive :-/ edit: oh, and emulation. thats also lovely.

[@Mcflurry_caduco]

My favourite console ever.

[@ExtremeGs094]

got a hign end laptop but i'm genuinely thinking of buying a console like the series s for casual gaming or using it for multimedia.. it might not be a top tier console but the amount of value it offers is phenomenal! snappy loading times decent performance small size and very quiet plus it supports all games released

[@jasbo7288]

Just bought a LG 27 inch Full hd tv ready to buy a series s as im a casual gamer and into retro games too on a budget so hopefully this should fit the bill...👍😁

[@jc4446]

We’ve got two in my house , one in my son’s room he pairs with his gaming PC and then my daughters in our back Florida room on the big screen … it’s easy to boot up and just play … I’ve got my ps5 in my main room but it’s fun to just play on the series s once in a bit …. But also … I run my emulators on it in dev mode , was playing disruptor and tenchu on retro arch … its good stuff

[@hammadbrohi8482]

Series S is the best value for money i own one for 2 years now and my setup is as simple as yours and gotta say series s never disappointed

[@abzabz7035]

amazing video bro its been a while, u definetly convinced me to get the series s honestly thats all i need, and gta 6 will look amazing on it. thanks bro

[@peterpereira3653]

I only have Xbox Series S and use a 22" 1080p TV. If you just want to play video games, without fuss it is still a good machine. Bought it for less than £200, when on a deal price. Very good value for the money spent.

[@maxcrust2518]

Sold my Xbox Series X to get a PS5 Pro, even though already owned a PS5. However, after getting the PS5 Pro, i missed the Xbox ecosystem and decided to pick up a used Xbox Series S for $150. I'm now happy with this system, as the PS5 Pro didn’t feel like a significant upgrade from the PS5 , sold the PS5 Pro, redownloaded my Xbox games, and are enjoying the experience, especially with features like Quick Resume on your 2K OLED monitor 🥰

[@WKMTHEAUTHOR]

You really did all that?😂

[@carloszapata565]

bro, really?

[@clintonfredricks]

This is the worst set of decisions I've seen being made in a while 😂

[@bachkingo]

So basically you could of just kept the series x and the ps5 and had both ecosystems to enjoy instead of buying a ps5 pro

[@WKMTHEAUTHOR]

@ this story has to be bullsh*t

[@anthonydevono8833]

I’m going to buy one in the next couple of weeks just deciding on what memory size to get

[@gabecollins5585]

If you plan on playing a lot of games or big games then get the biggest you can. Games are huge now.

[@A_shvartz]

I’ve had a series s and funny enough I’m actually upgrading after 2 years to the series x because my series s has had a couple issues booting up consistently. Still works just decided to invest while the black Friday deals had it 50$

[@nickabbott319]

Damn I remember watching your original videos of these back in the day but nice to see your doing them still

[@newjackgaming88]

try dev mode on my xbox series s emulation monster can all ps1 ps2 psp gamecube wii and more u can also use switch joy cons for motion controllers for wii games

[@ShubhSaini-ev1cr]

Series s with gamepass is the best deal for casual gamers like me

[@TriforceTech_385]

Nice video! Thanks for giving us an update. Glad you’re still enjoying the series s👍

Homie would benefit from those brackets to mount the system on your wall. That way it won’t sit on the floor.

[@denniskremer4036]

I love my Series S 💚💚 i have my sine 1 year and a half and im Impressed how this little Console works. Cyberpunk looks gorgeus😊. I buyed Avatar frontiers of pandora a couple days ago and wow WOW it runs so smoth and looks absolut beautiful ☺️☺️☺️. So happy with it. The only contra is the limited space and i buyed me the storage expansion card.

[@GrnTeaLover]

I think I'm sold on getting one, just waiting on a good deal that I feel like is around the corner.

[@johnboy4955]

Love your channel! It got me to purchase one during the ps5 drought and got me through a lot of hard times when I had money but couldn’t do anything with it. I just recently upgraded to the series X and man it was well worth it. But up until about a month ago I had my series S and it was all thanks to you and space cowboy

[@HitchHikersBlues]

Is it better to buy one now perhaps ? I just have a 1080p tv and im thinking of buying this digital console. My last console was the mighty 360.

[@rohitytbgmi1588]

You should just buy it, next year gta 6 will be pretty much smoothly runs on the xbox series, most people won't get to play games like that, but is makes that playable at a very cheap price

[@HitchHikersBlues]

Maybe Stalker, Fallout 4 and 76 bugs to name a but a few will sorted out too.

[@snuzstillfree]

I got series S as a returning gamer after years cause I didn't know if I will end up spending time on games like the old times! First of all I was really impressed by the graphics and the performance of the console considering I haven't touched games since 2014 probably and didn't even feel the need to upgrade to something better and more expensive for my needs! I Played every big title like Elden ring, Assassin Creeds, Cyberpunk and even an mmo Throne and Liberty with no issues, Few bugs here and there and some lags and crushes but its mostly on the developers and the game itself, the machine is beyond my expectation and doesn't cost a leg to get into any current game out there!

[@syedhabibullahhussain5362]

For casual gamers its the best thing ever happened 😃

[@JuneBugg-p2o]

This the video I was looking for quick question should I get the 1TB series S ?

[@Ners722]

In a 43 inch tv, which one is suitable for series s? 1080p Qled tv or 4K TV but not Qled, I'm confused because people say playing the S series using a 4K TV has blurry images

[@DhakshinKrishna]

will be suitable

[@Keyblade_warrior]

The series looks very good on 4k TV its just when you switch to 4k on the series s it do look blurry.

[@Glucose97]

1080p is the best. It's the original resolution and sharp, upscale make it blurry a little bit. Buy 43 inch tv or smaller, nothing bigger

[@विचित्रलड़का]

It depends. If you first play on pc/seriesx/ps and then move to series s , it will look low res. But if you don't mind low quality , it will look just fine.

[@ISOLAYTION]

I had a series s for 2 years and recently bought the new series x refresh and im ngl it feels like an entire different generation at times. Very often actually. Games like red read redemption running the one x version or even shooter games like apex and fortnite. The quality is just ridiculously good. The performance modes are the quality modes of series s and if you have a newer hmdi 2.1 tv like i do with features like motion enhancement you can literally manipulate the games to run 120fps even if in 30 fps. So imagine that on top of the 4k ray tracing quality modes. You're literally playing at 4k 120 fps! I've tested it side by side and "native 120fps" looks identical to motion enhancement. Not to go off topic but thats why being hyped over the ps5 pro is kind of foolish to me for that reason. You can argue it creates artifacts. But if you tone it down then youre still running any 30fps games at 4k 60 at least with no artifacts at all.

[@swizzysenpai9699]

Azorpa monitor M1RC 130$ and series s best budget gaming set under 450 probably cheaper

[@nickhaynie5980]

[@OzzyFan80]

I have moved on from console gaming and both my PS 5 and series just sit. If the next gen is a true next gen unlike this one and MS has another series S type console I would get it. Perfect console to do the minimum and still a non expensive way to experience current gen games.

[@JCFRESHNO559]

[@Iceman247ue5]

[@A_shvartz]

Definitely invest in a headset key word invest. A lot of people cheap out the headset the Xbox headset is pretty solid but something like the cheap turtle beach headsets can really suck with echoing and bad mic quality.

[@taucetus3657]

You are killing your console by placing its airflow intake on carpet. The obstruction means it is only pulling air from the upper side intake as the lower one is partially obscured by your rug. For better and optimal cooling your machine needs to draw in cold air from both vents. Remember also when you power down your console, do not unplug it because the cooling fan continues to run for a few minutes to take out hot air from the system via the circular black vent.
