It is a great console, but it's a great console with no Exclusive games, and the improvements on old games aren't $500 worth of noticeable. Just my opinion.
@@drummer7557 I just picked up a Series X on Friday. It's great for playing older Xbox and Xbox One games, but as a PC owner, the 1st party games just perform okay. I have Forza Horizon 4 on the PC, and because I had purchased the digital version of PC, I was able to download it on my Series X. There are a lot of graphical compromises on the Series X version.
Having the disc drive on it opens the door to thousands of other games the digital edition misses out on. There's something special about taking an OG xbox case off the shelf and throwin it in that a digital marketplace can't replicate. Huge W for physical game collecting
Yup, just got mine a month ago and wasn’t planning on it, but with them being more available and on sale, I snagged one anyway. I’m not disappointed at all. My XBox One has gotten slow and loud and nearly sounds like death. So an upgrade was due anyway.
I tell people all the time this Xbox has the best experience I have ever experienced on console speaking as a PS5 owner lol Xbox takes the cake for me this gen even without all the exclusives
I personally haven’t experienced the ps5 but the Xbox series is a great console in itself. It’s speedy and efficient and that’s what’s awesome about it
I enjoy your video and wish you much success as your youtube channel grow with many Blessing and followers congrats in advance. I have both the Series X and Ps5 disc I can't lie I been enjoying my Xbox the backward compatible games and also gamepass ultimate is near greatness. I like the fact that you can use xbox one controllers with any games considering ps5 you can only use ps4 controller playing ps4 games which is ridiculous. I feel that this generation of gaming is superior and I really don't see the purpose of having a ps5 pro or Xbox upgrade because both system have amazing specs and games aren't even playing stable at 4k60 so it's pointless because games want play in 4k120 until near the end of this generation or even get close to 8k.The series X is so quiet I have played it over 8 hours and no overheating you barely notice you have a system. I brought my Xbox last year on ebay for 414 with two controllers. I love game cloud it is so convenient being able to play games online or story mode not only do it save your progress but u clear alot of storage In my opinion both the ps5 and series x are good consoles I enjoy my ps5 for exclusives and my series X for indie and 3rd party games. I love this generation but I love the 7th generation with the ps3 definitely one of my favorite of all time.
I appreciate the kind words that means so much! Also I agree that the series X is awesome! It is almost perfect when you have gamepass paired with it. Being able to have thousands of games at your disposal from every xbox generation is so cool. I also didnt know the ps5 required you to do that with the controllers that is probably the dumbest thing ever lmfaoo. I plan on getting a ps5 later down the line so I can play both sides of exclusives but for now the series X is perfect for me
its funny you kept mentioning "next gen gaming" when thats the wrong term you should be saying "current gen" these consoles launched in 2020 and its allready 2024. Three more years and this current gen is done. It felt very fast though for sure.
Why do gen consoles have to last 7 years before the new shiny “next gen” comes out? Why can’t we enjoy and saviour current gen for at least 10 to 12 years. Considering games take waay longer to develop. I mean ps4 still has games coming out for it alongside ps5 which means they’re pushing the ps4 for everything it has. They could do the same for current gen. All i’m saying is i paid good money for my series x and ps5. Not to mention the games i bought. It would be nice to savour it before im compelled to buy next gen and their exclusives and rebuild my gaming library.
@@nmercenary I get what your saying but no thanks. Technology is allways evolving its fair to say 7 years is a consoles life. If it went on past that mark gaming pc's would inevitibly be far more powerful to the consoles more then they allready are.
Just ordered mine! Even though a new one maybe round the corner, it may not have a bluray drive and I need that! Mainly going to use it for flight sim, forza and other stuff.
It's the most convenient console on the market. It does a lot of things right and just better than the competition. Things like Game Pass and Backwards Compatability are it's biggest strengths. But I think they could have done more with the controller and maybe introduce a VR headset which can run across Xbox and PC.
I've had mine for a year now and I have no idea why it gets so much hate. Xbox + gamepass will save you so much money on gaming. I don't have to spend $70 on Lies of P. It's on Gamepass. I can use that money for other things like paying off my car loan lol.
@Jackopher game pass ain't free... Nice try xbox diehards. Trying your best to justify a shitty console with no goof exclusives 4 years later😂 sold my xbox series x twice. Never Again!
The one reason to buy it is for backward compatibility. Can play most of the 360 and Original xbox games, and it plays the last gen games better and with hdr. I can't wait to get this next month 😁
The Series X is the best Living Room/Family Room/Den console you could buy. From its design to the the media you could play on it (apps movies if you have a vase movie collection on DVDs Blu Ray 4K disc). Not that the PS5 can’t do the the same but as far as the clean minimalist sleek design, I prefer the Series X. As far as the controller goes “it was perfect, everything down to its last minute detail…..” some things are best left alone or just the very slightest of improvements work. The grip of the controller is improved without tampering with the features you already liked about the classic Xbox all the way to today’s Series X. Maybe unpopular opinion but I liked the original Duke controller as well (I had a Dreamcast and a Nintendo 64 that big a$$ controller Xbox had was child’s play to use lol). If the 2TB Series X only have to offer is more storage I don’t see why not just get the original Series X in 2024 you can buy a 1TB memory unit for less than $100. I like all of my gaming consoles (Series X, PS5 and Switch) but I play my Series X the most.
Is it worth it if I only have 1080p monitor? Will games still look and run better compared to the S? I'm worried that GTA 6 will struggle on my Series S
I have had the Series S since launch but it failed due to hardware issues. Should I buy the new Series S black edition or the X if I only play on 1080p/1440p monitor? Will I still have better performance and image quality even on FH? I have serious concerns that GTA 6 won't run good on Series S
I don't play on a 4k monitor personally but the series X is a beast compared to the S. it has almost double the power and just being able to play disc games wins it over for me. GTA 6 probably will run fine on the series S but the series X would be the safest route to go to get the most out of it
Cheap? Next gen? A series s is garbage... But the x is a damn good console... I love it... And as a Sony fanboy now i have massive games to play cuz i never played gears or halo... The hardware is insane high quality..
the series s is solid because of its cheap price tag. being able to play current gen games for way cheaper than the X was perfect for how I went about it. but I love the series X way way more
I have a ps5 but its really only good for exclusives and its nothing really different from a ps4.. Im planning on getting a series x soon thank you for this video.
The only reason I want a ps5 is for the exclusives as well. Other than that I’ve got Xbox and PC so I’m pretty much set. The Series X was definitely a worthy buy
i had a series s but i really wanted something more powerful so i was going to get a ps5 but i would have to buy every dam game again so im gonna get the series x cant wait for it to come
Right now there is a white digital version of the Series X for $449.99 but at the moment you can get the black one with the disc drive for the same price :)
Ya, Series X is nice and compared to pc even with a high end gpu like the RTX 4070 or so, The series X is optimized which pc is a hit or a miss. Some games like gears and forza horizon 5 runs smooth as butter or games like diablo 4 and many others have micro stuttering or stuttering which people say "that can be fixed" but ive tried all those fixes dont work and you shouldn't have to do all of that. On the series X it works and works really well Played Dead Space Remake recently on the series X and it looks AMAZING and plays smooth, While seeing the game with a "RTX 4090" Madd stuttering and micro stuttering and that gpu isnt garbage at all So ya,
brand new I’m pretty sure it’s $400, and then used is cheaper, I bought mine used off of Facebook marketplace for 325. some of the best money I’ve spent lmao
I have both systems now but I find myself more attracted to Xbox because of game pass. Both consoles are very good. I like the way Xbox controller feels cause I have big hands PlayStation Spider-Man is awesome & their controller functions are good & has rechargeable batteries. So it depends on u personally. I’m not a fanboy for either one or the other, l just like gaming, period.
@@Jackopher I was trying to send a picture of my XBOX SERIES X I have an R2D2 Skin on it and a Terminator head with red eyes to hold my ear phones but I don't know how
The xbox series x is a pretty swag console ngl
Would you recommend this? I’m thinking of getting one later this year.
I’ve had one for over a year now and always wondered why people overlook it. It’s so good
hands down the best console I’ve owned it’s a beast

exactly it’s a W all around. Xbox really brought the bacon home with this one
I bought Series S & have been very disapointed. Need those cheap games on disc
Having the digital PS5 and just recently getting the series X, I love every minute of the Xbox.
i could never really get into playstation, I played the ps1 and 2 growing up but I just couldn't go back to the ps3 or 4 after having an xbox lmao

it is leagues better than the xbox one and I didn't think that till I got my hands on it lmao
I've had mine for almost 2 years. I'm still satisfied. I don't think I'll need another console for a long time.
I 100% agree, it’s such a great console to own

just bought one today. watching your video got me even more hyped for it!!!!
It definitely is worth it! It’s an awesome console
I literally picked mine up yesterday 12/08/24 and my word what was I waiting for coming from the One X timing was perfect 💯
Definitely worth every penny! The load times being insanely quick is a reason alone lmao
Dude looks like he was born when skyrim came out
if you are annoyed with the capture button, you can remap it with the accesoires app on the console.
I completely forgot about that, that’s a good idea!

Playing new games for free is by far the best part about game pass
@Jackopher game pass ain't free... Nice try xbox diehards. Trying your best to justify a shitty console with no goof exclusives 4 years later😂 sold my xbox series x twice. Never Again!
@@Jackopherlol except the games aren't free.. all of those so called Free games are gone the moment you stop paying for game pass 😂
I bought mine in August 2023. I love it and it saved me from spending $$$$ on a new gaming PC.
yep it’s awesome it saves at least a thousand bucks
Do you notice graphic differences? Is it really noticable to you ? Between the s and x ?
Honestly I did, mostly with the frame rate and load times. Not too big of a difference but enough to notice once you switch
The one reason to buy it is for backward compatibility. Can play most of the 360 and Original xbox games, and it plays the last gen games better and with hdr. I can't wait to get this next month 😁
It plays 360 games like a charm! The fps boost makes the games so smooth
I have the Halo Edition with the 117 elite controller coolest console I’ve ever owned
daaang the halo one is sick that’s gotta be dope as hell having that. I need to pick up an elite controller as well, I’ve never owned one
Just brought one. I love it. Enjoy play new gen games and playing old school Xbox games
It’s perfect for having options, I still play mine almost daily it’s amazing!

thats the only thing that drew me to the X, being able to play almost my whole catalog of games on this thing is awesome
Definitely a great console. Absolutely love mine.
it’s a beauty
Is it worth it if I only have 1080p monitor? Will games still look and run better compared to the S? I'm worried that GTA 6 will struggle on my Series S
Good for you on your purchase, I should have done this instead of buying the series s
