Xbox Series X - Pros and Cons Retrospective Review and Games

[@ircha]

I may be mistaken about something in the video, can someone clarify? Can all previous generation Xbox games be played on the Series X or not? I hear some games doesn't work? I'm sorry if I was mistaken, I thought it could play everything from pre-gen systems.

[@DurableName]

They cannot. All (non-Kinect) Xbox One games can play on the new Series X/S, but less than half of the Xbox 360 library are compatible and less than 50 original (the first) Xbox games are currently backwards compatible. They've done better than Sony in this regard, but it still isn't ideal.

[@isaiah1516]

They are not all compatible but they are constantly working on making more games available for it.

[@DJELKING]

It's not fully backward compatible with every game in the catalog, they have a list of all supported titles on the website

[@emodadon1131]

@@DurableName most games that's not compatible is becuz of licensing. Plus they are still adding more.

I'm gonna miss the evasiveness of 5. The grappling hook will make for some interesting surprise plays, but I get the feeling that people are going to be a lot less aggressive overall. Maybe I'm wrong though. I didn't play the beta and most of the footage I've seen hasn't really shown off what Infinite can really do.

[@michaelhyatt245]

I agree with your thoughts on the Series X. It's my most played console right now, but I don't have a PS5. Playstation and Nintendo both have more interesting libraries, but GamePass makes Xbox worth it, in my opinion. I love the backwards compatibility and the controller. I definitely agree that Xbox needs some more JRPG type games. Some more interesting/weird games instead of the standard sports, and shooters. I always end up buying all of the consoles, so it doesn't matter anyway. Console wars are lame. All of these systems are great in their own ways.

[@ircha]

Agree 💯

[@albertkowalski5629]

They have more interesting exclusives, right but keep in mind that many Xbox exclusives were announced and are in production.

[@michaelhyatt245]

@@albertkowalski5629 yeah, I’m excited for the future. A lot of good games coming

[@samg3187]

The sheer game diversity on Xbox is by far the most diverse out of all of them. Sure on jrpg not a huge amount of them but they have shooters, racers, 3rd person adventure, flight simulators, rpg, twin stick, platfoemers from first & third party party. Sony doesn’t make jrpg. I think this gen with the amount of ppl getting Xbox we’ll see a lot of those third party jrpg coming to Xbox and to gamepass, like the Yakuza series. That’s like 600+ hours worth of games alone. It will be interesting to see what the jrpg space will be like next year.

[@FreddyBoBeddy]

@@samg3187 You were right about seeing more JRPGs on Xbox. I've even seen more niche titles come over. I prefer it to the PS5, but I keep having to switch back to the PlayStation for many of the ones I play, so I'm really hoping to see more come over. If lose my mind if they brought over the Atelier games.

[@Turo602]

Good news about Xbox in regards to Japanese games, is that they've been drastically expanding and making an effort to work with Japanese developers to get more Japanese support. The original Xbox was a flop in Japan and the brand has been quite non-existent there since. But ever since Phil Spencer took over, Xbox has games like Final Fantasy, Kingdom Hearts, Yakuza, Nier, and so much more they wouldn't have gotten before. They've definitely been making the right moves.

[@jacobrogers0]

And we know japanese developers are Talented AF

[@janusvarela6617]

I really hope all this Japanese support continues. JRPGs are actually pretty much what I only play on my One X (still waiting on Series X availability).

Thats false promise thats no way japanese game dev could get along with western style business with ton of loophole

[@Turo602]

The Series X is such a great console right now. My backlog is massive and I've been playing a lot of games that have been benefiting from the hardware and upgrades. Quick resume has really spoiled me too. The Xbox One was a trainwreck, but the Series X has definitely made me glad I stuck with it since I can take my entire library with me and just keep gaming like I always have but with next gen benefits. And while I personally don't need Gamepass, it's an undeniably great service for consumers. Xbox really does offer the most bang for your buck.

[@Turo602]

@Rubicon 1 Definitely. One of the first games I tried was Gears 5 and I immediately felt the difference. So much more responsive and fluid, and it already felt that way on the One X. The graphics are even more stunning too. I also tested out Resident Evil 2 and I was able to jump between saves in mere seconds and finished up some challenges I gave up on due to how much they required restarting and waiting for the game to reload. And I did this all while I was playing Red Dead Redemption II, which I played for a few months straight, and never once had to reload the game. Just kept jumping back in with quick resume. I really hope these seamless game generations become the norm moving forward. Xbox has really dedicated themselves to it and it feels great just looking at my 100+ library of games and knowing they can all be played on one machine.

[@ircha]

[@thisisntthewholesomefuture649]

Ive had a PS5 since Dec 22nd.. I think I'd prefer the Series X. The only thing that stopped me from getting the Series X over PS5, was the fact that I have hundreds of game already on PlayStation. As of right now, I believe the Series X is the better purchase for gamers. Looking at Game Pass and gamer points you get just for playing games on your Xbox. Xbox is more consumer friendly. Sony is greedy and mostly out of touch. I keep hearing from developers that Sony is difficult to work with.. Poor communication, software thats more costly on Devs to port from PC, and the sickening prices for games on the PSN.. The high prices for games years after launch.. It's by design.

[@bobby_c07]

I feel the same way, have had my ps5 since February. I have a decent PC so it's not a huge deal, but I'm sure if I had a Series X I'd be on it more than the PS.

[@mrrglass3407]

You can play most Nintendo games you can play PS1 PS2 games on your Xbox through emulation... As well as OG Xbox/ 360/ Xbox One and Xbox series games.

[@windyaneckin1358]

Hi, great video, but the PS5 doesn't have any sort of quick resume. You can put the system into rest mode and then pick up from exactly where you left off straight away but you can't switch between games without restarting each one.

[@Sticks_of_Truth]

She may be referring to last played. There's an option to load directly into your previously played. This is useful for new games with almost no load time but it's meaningless with backwards compatible games. Quick resume is awesome but the feature actually uses more space within the OS and Sony already streamlined the its limited storage for speed within the board itself. Maybe they could implement it later utilizing expanded storage. Microsoft just them beat with ADD gamers. I tend to switch between systems more than game to game myself.

[@ircha]

Ok, my friend Cathrine claimed that it had 😂 she's wrong then 😊

@@ircha I'm pretty sure she said she had heard they had something similar. She just not aware.

[@thefearmakerlive]

@@ircha Great review. I have a Series X and a PS5, the PS5 does have a thing titled "Switcher" when you press the Playstation button on the remote that seamlessly let's you switch between games that you've played since you've turned the console on. But once you turn off the system, or put it into rest mode, it resets, & you have to restart the games again next time you turn the console on. Unlike Quick resume, which makes it so you can turn the system off 20 times and still just jump back into your games.

Xbox isn’t messing around this generation. The value they’re bringing with gamepass is insane.

Phil has been making a big push to get more Japanese developers to bring their games to Xbox going forward

[@frankbizzoco1954]

I feel like the Series X has a good chance of winning this console war. If they don't win, they at least took a major lead. Mostly because of the fact that it is available for people to buy. Granted not as available as it should be, but if you really try you can get one. PS5 just isn't unless you want to pay those asshole scalpers. The very same scalpers that scooped up all of the 30 series Nividia cards. Also having it be backwards compatible with every other generation of xbox is a major plus for me. I have quite a few 360 and OG xbx games that I would love to play again with updated graphics. Agree that the names of these consoles suck. Overall great video.

It wins because it's available 😂 😁 👍 and thanks ☺️

You seemed to notice that some games are not backward compatible. And the difficulties to find JRPG games in the current library sounded very familiar :-)

I'm probably going to he'll for this. I got my seriesX by "strongly coercing" a scalper. I work appliance repair. I'm all over the place fixing people's broken stuff. On this call my stars aligned. Pulled up to a service call. Walked into garage to work on LG washer. Saw to large stacks with blankets hastily thrown on them. Saw the ps5 and Xbox logo's peaking through. I lost my shit right there. It was everything in me to keep cool and not smash his face on sight.. There were 43 seriesX 24 seriesS among another almost equal pile of ps5's. He went inside and I calmly removed the blankets acting like nothing happened. I focused on the guys washer. He had no warranty because he bought on Grey market. My brain spinning in anger, rage and trying to spin this in a way it works for me. Find his problem. Main board is faulty. Yes, with a soldering iron I can fix it for pennies.. but not for this guy. I look up part at cost and it's 650$ and on back order till end of October.. we are in a chip shortage remember. I go to my truck act like I'm calling to find his part knowing full well I have one on board that I personally own that he NEEDS. I calm down, form my plan and go at him kamikaze. I calmly walk back tell him the news and tell him the truth that I have perhaps the only part readily available right now. I point at the scalped consoles and tell him you will sell to me at cost if you want your sh!t fixed. He loses it. I start packing my things up to leave applying pressure. As I get to my truck his wife runs out to stop me. I negotiated 4 X's at cost plus 3 's. I go to ATM get cash and come back. I select my units with money and their part in hand and we make the "trade". Yes he paid 850$ total.. i gave him no breaks in price. He was so angry but also scared.. he knows I know who he is now. They were all bought according to him through bot buying. So I have all these units. I'm keeping an X for myself and have already gave 2 s units to struggling people that deserve and will appreciate them. I'm holding the rest till Xmas time and will give them to people in my community that are struggling and deserving. He also admitted the scalping is widely happening that there are many more he knows working together doing this. Guys none of the retailers have did anything to stop this. I'm still pissed off

I'm using music from Spyro, Death End Request 2, Astral Chain, Cyberpunk and AC Origins in this video ☺️👍

Backward compatibility isn't full though. You cannot run all og XBox games and even not all 360 games in there. In fact 568 games from the Xbox 360 and only 39 games from the original Xbox library are currently backward compatible. And titles that require its defunct Kinect motion sensor won't work at all.

I like how half your cons were on the naming of the console lol. I agree stupid names but not really a big deal. I also agree with the lack of JRPGs I wish they had more as well. But I have been a owner of a xbox series x since black friday around launch release and I have to say the console it self is a 10/10. Super good loading, amazing graphics, good performance, and any previous generation games you play will run better and look better.

[@ircha]

I love it 👍

I’m late to this video but it’s wonderful to hear the astral chain music :) I didn’t use my series X much until I upgraded to a OLED TV with variable refresh rate. Games with HDR running at 120fps on an OLED display are incredible. I own dragons dogma but haven’t played it. After seeing it in this video I remembered that I own it and am installing it now. If only Ryza was on XBox. I’m looking forward to getting my switch OLED edition, will be great to have a good screen. PS Vita was way ahead of its time. At some point I’ll get a PS5. Scalper prices are coming down and even at scalper prices of < $900 are in my opinion better value than upgrading my graphics card as at least I’ll play the PS5 for several years.

Not all xbox 360 games are backwards compatible with series x and only a few original xbox games are backwards compatible ,sadly. I still have to play games on my 360 that i can't play on series x.

0:40 Amen sister!! Well said

What games will you be playing this halloween season. 🎃 and if I may suggest a great game to play fatal frame maiden of black water it comes out on October 28th

[@dontquitdreamsarepossible]

Nice Review

[@tinahoefs1455]

The quick resume and backwards compatibility along with gamepass may actually convince me to finally buy an Xbox. If they ever made it portable I'd probably get it. I really want that steam deck though. I love PlayStation rpgs but most of the ones I care about get ported to switch and Nintendo is my favorite for variety and Portablity.

[@TheGoldenPS1]

They can't be called PlayStation RPGs if they are third party games owned by other companies. PlayStation is now synonymous with PlayStation Studios. If the game is not first-party it can't be considered a PlayStation game. Sony Interactive Entertainment brand disappeared when PlayStation Studios replaced it. These smaller games are no longer locked to PlayStation to be exclusive. There is no reason for it. Ken Kutaragi's business model proved to be a failure in the end. Only games that now sells millions like mainline Persona or FF is what PlayStation keeps doing deals. Let alone Arc System Works they have acquired and will soon be announced.

[@rpgs6218]

Wish pcs had a quick resume feature. I ahve so many jrpgs on Steam v.v and i too tend to jump from game to game every few hours.

[@ircha]

PC needs quick resume! That would be mind-blowing.

[@charlesfragoso3932]

I don't have a series x but I have a ps5 , and after getting it I can't go back to playing my switch because of the load times and I know I'm missing out on some good games.

[@JasPlun]

Try Star Wars Battlefront 2 again on the series X. Its phenomenal in its present state!

[@ircha]

👍👍

[@JasPlun]

@@ircha by the way your videos are great. I recently baught a Switch and baught several games you reviewed. Ni No Kuni has been awesome:P

[@meisJ420]

I'm sure she's not the first woman to have ever said "I've settled for the size" 🤣🤣🤣

[@foulorigin7064]

And im gonna say i love the spyro 1 soundtrack in the background 😎👍

[@dangleberries992]

you forgot pro nr6, the xbox dose Dolby vision and Atmos and the ps5 dose not, Dolby Vision trumps HDR10+. i started replaying Gears 5 and Halo: The Master Chief Collection in Dolby Vision and it's AMAZING.

[@shadowsinsomniacs9943]

It's not backwards compatibility with every game, lots of them but not all.

[@enlightened84]

Great video and vibe. Yet the Xbox is not fully backwards compatible. Games with licenses such as music or intellectual property will not work. Try to throw a copy of NCAA or some skateboarding games in there, as an example. No dice. The backwards compatibility is huge though and dwarf other systems. Looking forward to your pros and cons on PS5

[@ircha]

If I can get hold of a PS5 I'll do a video like this on that too 😁😁

[@jawaanmccambry5162]

Only the real og's know about dragons dogma💯

[@babyboy1971]

I got an Xbox series S and I love it. My first Xbox since the 360. I love my switch so much, and I love my PS4, but after falling in love with the series S, I’m actually going to opt for the series X as my next console, not a PS5. And I’ve been a Sony guy since the PS1! PS: I also love JRPG’s and they are slowly arriving on Xbox and I also have my switch for that!

[@bryceandrewmusicofficial]

Sonic Generations runs in 4K 60fps on Xbox Series X and it is AMAZING! One of the best Sonic games ever made. It's a must play.

[@katiepatchell]

Hey Ircha! Love your channel. Quick question - what game are you playing on 8:47-8:50? I saw a few shots of it in the video, but couldn't track it down.

[@ircha]

Scarlet Nexus 😉😋

[@katiepatchell]

@@ircha Thanks!!

[@katiepatchell]

@@ircha if only it was on Switch 😢

[@wiccangamer0336]

I have a ps5 and been on the fence about Outriders. I'll probably pick it up now :p

[@ircha]

I had a blast!
