You Just Bought An Xbox: User Guide

[@Jenger420]

It's worth mentioning that you actually don't even need an Xbox live subscription to play free online multiplayers like fortnite or warzone. I actually just figured this out recently.

[@pauladestefano3138]

Thank you so much for that, Joe! That was exactly what I wanted to know. Is it hard to figure out? I am a brand new to Xbox--my son bought it for me--so I know nothing. I'm also retired and don't have lots of money for subscriptions I won't use. I only want to play with my son in England and brother in Oregon. I'm in NYC. Any tips on how to do this would be much appreciated.

[@adex_smith]

@jenger420 i would appreciate if you can give us a tip on how to go about it. I’m from nigeria 🇳🇬 and I really do not have money to waste on games I barely play

[@adex_smith]

Update: i figured out they’re actually free on xbox

[@lemonadyer]

​@@pauladestefano3138did you figure it out? I'm having the same issue!

[@jonathannzonga9061]

​@@pauladestefano3138I'm not an expert but i think it works like this: if you play free games like apex legends, call of duty warzone or fortnite you don't need any subscription, but if it's paid games like fifa,gta,nba or else you'll need the subscription. Like if you have the game pass ultimate which costs 18/month you'll have access to xbox live which is going to allow you to play online. I guess these infos might help

[@renegade32m80]

It’s like hearing Olaf telling you what to do with a new Xbox love it

[@trevorflake7854]

This guy's freaking good how does he not have more subscribers/views?? I know I am not missing a video from him! Subscribed!

[@holden3027]

He's a BRAND NEW channel, not even a month old channel, so obviously he is pretty small, but he is a pretty good creator though

[@paulpierre4895]

I need to know more games Xbox 😊

[@tylergillis6057]

I 100% agree

It’s because of his haircut. People can’t handle it.

[@rudysanchez5176]

I am a 50 year old dad and I stopped playing games when PS2 era now that I got my youngest kid an XBox X I didn’t know what the heck was going on but you explained and answered all my questions thanks your truly a remarkable man good stuff

[@harrycollins3534]

I just appreciate how me has a sense of humor and not just boring like most youtubers relating to this sort of thing.

[@Buddhakingpen]

The algorithm will definitely bless you guys with this level of quality. Just keep at it!

[@jineshghost2000]

This is one of the best break down videos covering X Box stuff including games. Loved it! You nailed it. Can you also cover Playstation Plus in another video of how you covered Gamepads just to know what PS plus covers and lacks vs GamePass and vice versa.

[@youjustboughta]

So we cover Playstation Plus a bit in the PS5 vid that we did. kzbin.info/www/bejne/r5K3aISBhd-Cabc We didn't go as deep on Playstation Plus cause it isn't of the same caliber in terms of its catalogue, but let me know if that answers your questions. If not, I'm happy to dive into something more specific.

[@ChapaDB]

Been on PlayStation for decades and decades.got both now. First time getting a Xbox too. This was a good video.

[@jkidd7608]

How has your experience been? I'm in the same boat. Since 2014 I've been PS only. I have PS5 and love it. The exclusives on PS are so good. I got a Series S about a month ago and I've barely touched it. Really disappointed by the lack of anything worth playing. It's really just been a Forza machine for me. It's a nice little console but the games are very meh.

[@ChapaDB]

@@jkidd7608 honestly. I’m in the same spot. Where I rarely touch it. Just got it got games like Halo tbh. Other than that I stay on my ps5 or switch. I also got the S version.

[@jkidd7608]

@@ChapaDB gotcha. Yeah I thought I'd play the hell out of it. I spent a day trying a bunch of different stuff but it just honestly seems like any good games on it are actually just old games anyway. Went back to PS after like a day using the Xbox. It is a cool console though...just needs some games. Maybe 2023 will be good for it.

[@Persvicx]

As soon as you made this video i got my Xbox.

[@Persvicx]

This is also my first Xbox!

[@trevorflake7854]

Agreed he's freaking great!

[@youjustboughta]

Awesome! Have fun playing!

[@Systemreboot96]

What games are you gonna play ?

[@christiansantamaria7233]

Hopefully getting mines in January

[@WaynesWorldUnlimited]

Five months ago, I got my Xbox series S, it’s amazing little console and I have definitely been promoted it. Three weeks ago I got my Xbox series X my God that’s a step up

[@jeremychong8541]

Xbox Game Pass is insanely good. So many games I almost never finish any games now. Lol

[@NhanADL]

Great, simple, straight forward informative channel for techs and games! Keep it up!

[@brookly]

I got my Xbox Series S 2 days ago. Everything in this video I already knew, but it's nice seeing again how great this thing is. As a child I had a Ps2 and a Wii, and the past few years I've only had my PC and Switch. In comparison, Series S is an entirely different beast. The fact you can literally control your downloads from your phone, see all the screenshots and achievements. It blows my mind.

[@rrokinn]

Glad you're enjoying your xbox. I got my xbox series s about a month ago, during black friday sales. I will be able to open it in 2 days due to my birthday, I am honestly super excited and have seen endless reviews praising the mini-console. I cant wait to chill on my couch, and just play triple A titles during the holiday season. The xbox series S is definitely going to be a blast paired up with gamepass. Happy Holidays.

[@jamesstead2256]

[@10MinutesofGameplay]

Do you prepared playing games on gamepass or buying digital?

@@jamesstead2256 thank you, i appreciate it.

[@sarp1146]

İs there heating ?

[@davidmuza7164]

I was about to buy a Ps5 Today but I crossed this video and instead bought an Xbox series X. Thanks for the inspiration

[@trevorflake7854]

The only thing he got wrong was the sync process.. the sync button on the series x is not the disk button it's the one on the bottom right of the console when it's vertical. Other than that spot on!

[@youjustboughta]

Good correction. Thanks for spotting it.

[@kellyavalanche450]

I think you just answered my question on whether I needed a chat pad or keyboard. I’m thinking of adding Xbox series X to my collection of consoles to play.

[@drewleon6217]

Thank you Andrew for an informative exclusive on the xbox series x and s, this has helped me a lot on which platform to buy. Series X, here I come! Keep up the good work, see you guys soon. 😊

[@drewleon6217]

Just a follow up after commenting on your review on how it made my decision to buy the X series. After setting up the xbox to my TV then playing horizon 5 on it...OMG!!! The graphics and smooth motion kicks butt.This system is AWESOME! Thank you so much and keep up the great work and looking forward on your next reviews. 😊

[@zamiryusof8239]

I think there should be an emphasize on rechargeable battery pack. Most people coming from PS4 think this is an old practice and they need buy a lot of AA batteries for the controller which is entirely wrong. Rechargeable battery pack cost about $10-20 and also can be charged through the controller's USB C port so it's a no brainer.

[@heartles3oul]

I'm thinking to buy an X box, though much of explained here I know already but liked how you explained it step by step in a fun way

[@francoisvanaardt1721]

I have a ps5 and a Series S, and I honestly have to say the S does so much I really dont think buying an X or a ps5 is necessary

[@MelvinThe123]

Always had Playstations. Now i just buyed a Series X. Can't wait to play!!!

[@stoffe2055]

Got a series x today been playing forza 5 and high on life awesome console have a ps5 since a year for exclusives :)

[@junito2899]

Wow! I thought your channel was hundreds of thousands subscribers or even over a million. The production is top tier and eventually it will be.

[@ocramknight]

Good video, but you missed some key features like: Quick Resume, Smart Delivery, Microsoft Rewards (which basically allows to play for free!)

[@youjustboughta]

Thanks for the tips!

[@0huckleberry]

Thank you, I am planning on getting a series X this summer for myself. I haven’t had a console since the Wii. So it’s going to be a fun experience

[@danrussell3509]

I recently got an Xbox X and the only intended purpose for this purchase was to set up a nice Flight Simulator . Love the Graphics and 4 K clarity along with the realism of the game . Love it !

[@Pkilla80]

I use mine for CDs. PS5 for games and UHD movies

[@danrussell3509]

@@Pkilla80 I did try a BluRay In mine and it was awesome . Just bGlad that Xbox stepped up their game on both the X and S .

[@BOSSMAN-p2i]

I'm buying an Xbox next month I was about to buy the gold pass but now Ill change to the ultimate game pass thanks for the amount of detail you put into the video, really helped me understand 👌

[@brett4texas]

Great video! There's only one thing I feel you missed, and it's that the Microsoft store often runs sales on games. If you are like me and like to own your games, then this may be a good option for you over the game pass. I'm a Nintendo fanboy who recently got an Xbox One over the summer. Never played or owned any of the games, so game pass was a great deal for a few months. Then I came across some deals I couldn't pass up. 3 game Arkham Collection for $10, Spyro and Crash trilogies for $30, Farcry 3-6 for $45 were just a few deals I took advantage of. Canceled the subscription, and now I have hundreds of hours of content that I will always own. I would recommend game pass if you intend to play online. But for me personally, I am happy using my Xbox as a single-player and local multiplayer machine, as I'm currently getting my multiplayer fix from Splatoon 3 on the Switch.

[@ilya.bakulin]

Coming from Stadia, the first thing I'm going to play when I get my Xbox series S (this Friday) is Hitman trilogy. Thanks to you I'll probably get it through Gamepass.

[@y_corruptor_y]

Settings: If you play on (new modell) Monitor set your Xbox to PC RGB If you play on TV it should stand on Stamdard

[@Kingofrandomness]

as a teen in the uk im saving for a tv and xbox to go in my room I am a week away from having at and ruffly in 2 months I'll have an xbox if I work long enough at my job. This video has been helpful as I know what to do when I get an xbox series s, I'll defo get the game pass ultimate as I want to play fortnite, forza 5 and forza 4, and obviously that will set me back £110 here in the UK so the game pass will be worth it

[@ghtraining1]

I liked the video!! Funny and good information. Good luck with the channel. Was a PS guy since the beginning. Got a series S on sale earlier in the year because the ps5 and and series x were so hard to get. I've enjoyed the heck out of it. I love the look of it more than the other consoles. Game pass got me into new games like Forza for a heck of a deal. The games look and play great. Storage was my only gripe, I did break down and get an expansion card recently went they went on sale.

[@Pkilla80]

Should sold the S and used that MC money for a PS5

[@ghtraining1]

@@Pkilla80 I hear ya but I would have run into that same storage issue with the ps5 anyway. 825 (667 usable is not that much either). Gamepass got me into some new games and has been a good money saver on my usual sports and racing games I play. My kids play mine craft, flight simulator etc. on gamepass too. I was able to download some 360 games for cheap that I used to play on the ps3 too.
