    I’ve been mass buying used Xbox Enhanced titles for less than $10 each. Series X is frequently $350 on sale. Xbox is insane value.

      I often hear people saying that console games are more expensive but after getting some great deals on used discs and catching games on seasonal sales I think that's a hangover from past generations. Games go suuuper cheap in Microsoft's digital xbox store.

      Now Xbox has a lot of the same or similar sales to Steam Sales. Ive gotten a ton of older AAA titles on Xbox for under $10. The whole "Steam games are so much cheaper" is left over from 10 years ago when that was true. Its not like that anymore

    The Xbox Series X is by far the BEST console I've ever owned. I got my PS5 in 2021, my Series S in 2022 and my Xbox Series X a few months ago in 2024.
    The Xbox ecosystem is absolutely amazing, the ability to play all the games I purchased on Xbox 360 back in the day is a feature I didn't realize how badly I missed it. Being able to play GTA 4, midnight club, gears of war & so many other brilliant OG Xbox, Xbox 360, and Xbox One games.
    As far as the Xbox Series X is concerned it's honestly the best console I've ever owned. It's plenty powerful, consistently blowing me away with the fact I can play so many games with a resolution of 4K at 60fps OR 1440p at 120fps. It shocks me how gorgeous games run on the console. Not to say the PlayStation 5 doesn't have good looking games because it does but I was pleasantly surprised that the Series X performance was just as good if not better in most games I've played.
    Another brilliant feature of the Xbox Series X|S consoles is quick resume. It's a feature I wish was available on every console lol but I'm so glad I have it on my Series X. I was recently playing through Red Dead Redemption 2 for the second time (side note RDR2 is superior on XSX compared to PS5, this is well known but was news to me) and I was in the middle of a mission that required quite a few steps to get going & I was pushing back enemies in a shootout when my wife called out for me to help her prepare dinner. I pressed Xbox button, clicked on home which put RDR2 into quick resume and I turned off my Xbox. About 3 hours later I booted up my XSX and there was a little tab that said quick resume, I clicked on RDR2 and bam I was back in the middle of the shootout as if nothing happened at all. It truly is REMARKABLE to be honest.
    Next up is Xbox has so MANY games launching within the next 18 months. We have a great cadence for upcoming releases, plus with an Xbox Gamepass Ultimate sub, there's a massive catalog of really good games from ALL the Xbox generations.
    Lastly I can't talk about Xbox without mentioning gamepass. It's a brilliant subscription service that has allowed my wife and I to expand our gaming horizons substantially. We still purchase plenty of games but now we have the added ability to play games we would've never purchased otherwise. Even with the price increase it's the BEST value in gaming.
    To end it all this video is lamenting everything I love about my XSX. Remote play, backwards compatibility, online functionality, and amazing games that allow us to have so many brilliant memories made. That's what it's all about, gaming is a medium that brings people together. Xbox Live connects me to a gaming community that I genuinely appreciate. Yes, the PSN does the same thing but I've found over the years the Xbox community to be more open and welcoming. Obviously there's bad toxicity in every online community but for the most part the people I've met have been cool
    Long Live Xbox, happy gaming ✌️

    I was primarily a PC gamer up until a year ago, all because I started working at home, meaning I would spend 8-10 hours a day in front of my PC. This pretty much made PC intolerable for me, as it would constantly remind me about it being a working station first and foremost. But then I decided to buy a console, of course due to a huge popularity of PS5 that's the console I sent my mind to buy, but then after digging a bit more and finding good and bads of each console I came to a conclusion that excluding the exclusive games (no pun intended), PS5 is objectively inferior to XBOX offering. Quick resume is a blast, backwards compatibility is absolutely insanely good, and of course game pass... I mean, I like Game Pass, don't get me wrong, but that wasn't the reason why I bought the console. I was in the market for a console, sure, but nevertheless it's the actually backwards compatibility in combination with quick resume that made a sale, because besides that these consoles are identical. Now, I got to admit that I'd rather take 30 fps over 60 fps, if it meant no more fiddling with settings for each game I own. It's an easy and seamless experience, and if playing games is your main concern, investing into a console is a good solution.

      I got the Series X when it released, and later sold it for a PS5. And you’re exactly right. PS5 may have more quality exclusives but the Xbox is better in every other way, to the point I missed it repurchased it later. And personally, although I can’t deny the PS quality, the games started to bore me since it was just more of the same from PS4 gen. Meanwhile games like Halo Infinite (while it definitely had its issues) kept my friends and I playing for years. I have more time in that game than all the PS5 exclusives combined.

    Loved this video. Lately, I've been thinking about picking up a Series X again simply due to how comfortable the experience was. I've been a PC Gamer for a few years, and I only take a liking to small form factors to mimic that look of a console. The Series X nailed that look ( a strip of RGB lighting would've been perfect), and I've also been missing physical copies lately. As mentioned within the video, xbox comes closest to PC and offers better backward compatibility as opposed to the PS5. I was a playstation gamer for the longest, but the PS5 never had my interest. I have a high-end PC at the moment, but the ease of use with the series x is unmatched.

I just don't like the current state of PS. What they did to The Last of Us turned me off and I will never touch TLoU Part 2 garbage. It's clear that PS is having trouble putting games out. Nothing but remasters upon remasters. Two TLoU remasters already? More PS4 remasters like Until Dawn? What happened to Sly Cooper, Jak and Daxter, Gravity Rush, Playstation Allstars, Ape Escape, Twisted Metal, Little Big Planet etc.? Why are these Franchises dead? Oh yeah, those aren't blockbuster titles and current PS wants to be known for its Blockbuster titles. I just want the old PS back is all.

    Funny enough, my friend and I who in the last couple of years bought higher end PC’s were just talking about this recently. We both have Xbox Series X’s and have been on consoles prior.
    We both agreed that the simple nature of use and practicality over PC’s is superior. The fact that a console is truly plug and play without really any worries of software issues/updates, game launchers, accessory malfunction, graphic setting adjustments etcetera, are some of the reasons why.
    You can play on any type of chair, any tv or monitor, and split screen with friends. I find my $2k PC build less appealing than the XSX if I’m being honest with myself after a couple of years.

  • @TheCgOrion
    @TheCgOrion 2 месяца назад +2

    I fall into a rare camp of people that while I do use a high end PC for gaming, I would take a weaker PC over a console, and it's because of the sheer amount of choice I have in fine tuning game settings, frame rate, fixing things the Devs will never fix, or without waiting/hoping they address. Even removing effects I don't like (talking to you Chromatic aberration, vignette, and some others), adding mods, adjusting FOV, rebinding inputs to any input method, and many more reasons. I started PC more than 35 years ago as a little kid, and I can't go to such a locked setup, and it's the same reason why I'm not big on Apple products. I have nothing against them, and I keep up on all of the tech in the consoles, and Apple products, but they're not for me. Another HUGE benefit is I can always bring my 20 year old game to the new hardware, and crank the settings, without hoping it's on back compatibility, and half of the time someone has updated the game with mods. There are a lot of indie and PC only games I would miss. I think many people shouldn't go near PC, unless they're willing to learn things about it, to get the extra benefits, and not annoy their one computer savvy friend. I do think the Series X is an incredible piece of tech for a tiny console.

    • @metaldiceman
      @metaldiceman 4 месяца назад

      I mean, you can't have an informed conversation about online DRM on the Xbox without delving into the weeds. So, which specific kinds of online checks, matters to the topic.
      [*] "Requires Internet" printed on the box for e.g. Battlefield 2042 -- that's game-specific.
      [*] Network required for console initial setup or factory reset -- yes this is DRM that absolutely needs to go.
      [*] Online connection to sync game data when you start it up -- this is to copy down your save file from the cloud. This is a bonus/convenience feature. A fully offline console can still play and store game progress.
      [*] Online connection to copy or play a game from a removable drive on another console -- this is a measure to stop very easy piracy. Otherwise you could copy your game to a thumb drive, pop it out pop another one in and copy again. Then just send them to a bunch of friends.
      [*] Online connection to copy or play a disc-installed game on another console -- this is DRM that needs to go. The above reason makes sense for fully digital games, since your MS account stores the license. For games installations that originated from disc, the disc holds the license so this requirement shouldn't be there for disc games. MS went with a heavy-handed approach here instead of a sensible nuanced one.
      So the only DRM checks that are an actual problem, are console setup and transferring games installed from disc. Unless I'm missing something, everything else has a reasonable explanation.

    Game Pass is absolutely great but there's also so much more to it if you enjoy retro collecting, or a lot of older XBLA games,or like mentioned on the video, not messing around with tweaking settings.

    I grew up on the 360, back in the OG COD days, or the “golden era” as we like to call it. Life got complicated and I ended up stopping gaming for around 9 years until last year I thought “damn I really miss the Xbox days” and started watching gaming related videos. A month or two later my wife surprised me with a series X for my 28th birthday. Backwards compatibility & Gamepass means I have been able to replay all the games I loved as a kid (Gear of War, Halo, OG COD, GTA IV, Fallout, Skyrim) and more. Even got to experience Red Dead Redemption 2 for the first time recently which was amazing. I enjoy playing my series X as much now as a 28 year old husband/father as I did playing my 360 as a kid.

    I have the series s and a steam deck,the things i buy works and syncs the progress with play anywhere games.And with the steam I can play a big catalog of pc games and use it like a pc with windows
    I think is the best combo you can have for 600€ the series s it's so cheap and the steam deck you can find it for 300€ in second hand market.And more easy to move with it than a PC or a +900€ decent enormous gaming "laptop" (that you need everytime the charger for everything)
    Xbox doesn't have a big roster of exclusives to make you buy the console only for that,but i don't care having a enormous catalog of various gens and having emulators with the dev mode (working better than ps5) idk exclusives aren't that important for me and some exclusives being on pc and more will arrive soon that i can play on the steam deck

My PC is great, but I don’t really like sitting at my desk to game. I can hook it up to my TV but it’s just enough of a pain to make me just want to plop down and boot up my PS or Xbox instead. I thought I was the only weirdo who owned both an Xbox and PC.

    As much as I appreciate your commentary, I have to disagree with you on one thing: Exclusives DO sell consoles. One reason Xbox sales are down is because they put all their exclusives on Game Pass on day one, meaning PC gamers can play on day one, minimizing any reason to get an Xbox. Playstation doesn't do that, increasing incentive to get one.
    Other than that, *LOVE* your video! Keep 'em coming!

      Maybe I didn't come across as I intended to, my intention was to confirm what the poll data indicates, which is in agreement to what you said, that exclusives are the biggest system sellers. I can see how me saying that exclusives were never really XBOX's strength (at least intentionally) can be interpreted as a rebuttal of that. I think XBOX got really lucky with Halo, their only true system seller ever. Aside from that, XBOX has been touting power and being the best multiplatform console since day one (except for XBOX one until they came up with One X) which is likely the true reason they don't sell as many systems as their competitors.

    Great video. I bought a series X earlier this year and besides being a serial hobbyist, I haven’t played it a whole lot. I also own an Nvidia Shield Tv and have been playing games most of most games there outside of sports games and a few that are not available on GeForce now. Lately I have been questioning my series x purchase and its purpose. I have never owned a PlayStation console but was considering purchasing one but there was a crazy sale on the series X and I had an Xbox one so I was already invested in the ecosystem. Backwards compatibility (games and controllers) quick resume, gamepass, more raw power, Pc compatibility were all the same reasons I made the investment. This video literally made me pull the dust cover off the Xbox series x and fire it up. I do feel like GeForce now and my shield tv are my go to’s due to steam having better sales but the series x is a great console
