    Series S is a great console for someone like me. I was a PC gamer in the 360/PS3 era. But then life happened and I couldn’t follow anything that came up last gen. Only games I played in last 10 years were GTA V and MGS5 Phantom Pain. So, Gamepass has a LOT to keep me busy for at least an year. Great great Value!!

    gamepass isnt as great as it seems up front when you consider you can buy game keys for next to nothing from resellers like g2a and actually get to own the games your spending money on. the outrageous pricing for proprietary storage, games, and online is enough to keep me on pc

    @@rileyhance318 I come from a country where it’s hard to find 3rd party retailers selling legal copies of digital games. Consoles are still a luxury here. On the flip side, it’s the play station that doesn’t let you purchase digital games from anywhere else other than PS Store. Atleast Microsoft allows that. PC is more powerful and versatile platform any given day. But the higher entry point, constant upgrade race, tedious and time consuming troubleshooting, micro stutters and lack of optimisation for PC from the developers side has lately kept me away from it. For the price of Series S, you don’t even get a good everyday productivity laptop let alone gaming. In that context Series S is a better value for anyone on a tight budget. Try features like Quick Resume on an Xbox console and you’ll realise the “plug and play convenience” on a Console is heavily underrated.

    I just got a Series S 2 days ago. I love it, the only concern I have is how hot it gets. I'm willing to chalk that up to the games I play though. Open world/sandbox survival games are kinda demanding sometimes. But if the Series S makes Ark run without crashing (unlike my PS4 Pro) then it's A-OK in my book. Graphic snobs will always be dissatisfied, so their opinions are irrelevant. Know whats not irrelevant though? Saving 200 bucks.

I won't be bothering to play games like Starfield on it though, as I have an X and PC for that. Highly recommend the S though, especially for the price.

    series S is really amazing. i bought mine for 200 euros from ebay from a guy who used it only a couple of times. the small sise is really amazing. you can pack it up and bring everywhere and no matter how little space you have it fits everywhere and weighs absolutly nothing. paired up with game pass you basicly have unlimited games in amazing quality and almost no load times. i switched from xbox one to series S and it cut my load times from 1-2 minutes to 20-30 seconds on civ 6. only problem was after intense use it good too hot but an external 30 euro cooling fan off amazon fixed the problem instantly. the console is amazing for people who already build a big online library and or pair it with gamepass. downside low storage so you have to delete alot or buy an ssd. no cd intake so you cant buy and use hard copies and sometimes digital game costs 60 dollars but only 20 dollars used on ebay.

I highly recommend if you're wanting to jump to the next generation of Xbox or if you're a playstation fan wanting to try the waters of what Xbox has the series s with (game pass optional) is a great first step into this generation. Bonus you can practically take it anywhere it is smaller than a laptop length wise depending on what kind you have

    I'm thinking about buying a Series S as a tertiary console. I main PS5, Switch for exclusives and a mid tier laptop for stuff like Factorio, Oxygen Not Included and CRPG's. Are these games: Lamplighters league State of Decay 2 Sunset Overdrive Everwild TBA Ori 1/2 Valheim Starfield Rare replay The Gunk Gears Tactics Sea of Thieves Any potential good future Arkane games (aka Dishonored 3 or something) Potentially, the Indiana Jones game Redfall...I know it's bad, but I love Arkane and just to say I've played it. Worth buying one for? These are in order of interest with anything under Starfield mainly for just trying. Starfield also isn't my most anticipated game this year but I do like to give most big releases 20-40 hours if possible just because. (I would never buy a game here, so it's going to be entirely Gamepass based and I believe all or most of these are on that. (I REALLY want to play Lamplighters League, State of Decay 2 and Sunset Overdrive, my laptop isn't suitable for those) I have the Expendable money to buy one, I don't feel like it's worth it to buy a Series X though if it's not a main console (even though I don't get a bit picky when it comes to resolution and FPS, the main downsides to the Series S) and I could care less about the new Series S because I just don't install that much, plus I want the white console to go with PS5 and OLED Switch) Any suggestions would be much appreciated 👍

    With the insane size and cost of the PS5, I doubt I'll ever be interested in getting one, even if it does end up keeping the Final Fantasy games exclusive (which does kind of suck, since I love FF). Series S seems like by far the best option for next-gen games if/when there becomes a lot of them. My only problem with it is that no current disc drive ability at all means that I can't take advantage of used game prices, which is a shame. That's a lot of money wasted on digital-only games that may be $50-60 cheaper used (unless we get some very nice sales). I guess there is game pass instead, but eh.

    Worst thing about the PS5 for me is Sony’s greed. And ultimately it was what made me decide against buying a PS5 and going back to Xbox. 80$ a year just to be able to play online is an absolute joke. On Xbox it costs me half that, and you even get to play way more and better free games. I don’t play many games, but I do play a lot online and the yearly subscriptions do add up.

    @manasez254811 ай бұрын

    as someone whose had it since release year and loves the console, im just gonna say no. The black 1tb edition is gonna be coming soon and the #1 downside to the series s has to be its storage capacity (seriously it’s genuine pain). Even then I’d really urge everyone to just spend the bit extra on the xbox series X , it’s my only regret really but at the time the X was widely unavailable and scarce. For the price tho, the series s didn’t disappoint me but the xbox series x is just better bang for your buck for the better graphics, viable lifespan in terms of games being developed for it , and 1tb storage. Also in terms of graphics, My roommate had a series X and he’d game next to me and you could definitely see graphical differences. Although , for the price the series s does look astonishing on a 4k tv, this is considering you’ll be sitting farther away so naturally your eyes can’t discern the jagged edges and slightly blurrier textures. bascially don’t get the S unless your a fairly causal gamer who: - doesn’t care ab graphics - doesn’t need that much storage / is willing to buy the external storage for $150 - uses a tv to game / sits further away from screen while gaming - is looking for a cheap way to get into next gen gaming (just understand it comes with a cost, you’ll likey need to upgrade much sooner than you think) - needs a small form factor console which is easily portable

    I have the series s. Used to have an original Xbox which was cool, and later an Xbox one which I later traded on a ps4. But that said the series s is a great little console. Got it during the shortages when it was about the only next gen console you could get. Wouldn’t mind a series x, but may go for ps5 later in the year.

    Im trying to decide between the series S or the series X. I mainly play Madden and all of my games are digital. I dont see the point of buying a series S and then spending $200 on memory when you can just buy the series X with more memory. I could just buy the series S and keep my xbox one and i have a 1tb memory card for my xbox one and just use the series S for madden and maybe a few more new gen games like elder ring or whatever. I still have a ton of xbox one games i need to play and beat from GTAV,RDR2,Witcher3,State of decay 2....etc. I was going to trade in my xbox one but i may just keep it and all the games i have on it,over 90+ and just use the series S for Madden and a few other games.

    11 ай бұрын

    If you do have a 4K TV then the S will be fine. However, if you do plan to get a 4K TV within a year then I wouldn't get the console. The Series S is rated to go up to 1440p (2K), but the Series X can go up to 2160p (4K). Also the Series X has a disc drive and 1TB of storage rather than the 512GB in the Series S. Microsoft isn't going to stop making games for the Series S, but it does handicap developers who are having many issues developing for it. Keep in mind that the console potential is to hit 1440p at 60 fps (although it go to 120) with ray tracing. Alot of games are only hitting 1080p at 30fps without ray tracing on the Series S.

    People need to set expectations right gpu is 1/3 of the performance of series x the series s is only upto 1440p if it can handle it game by game basis a lot of games will upscale if required from 720p/1080p to achieve 60fps this isn’t for high end graphics it’s budget system to enable people to play newer games not available on last gen hardware. If you want better visuals this is not the system for you if you just want to play the same games as everyone else regardless of visuals then it’s fine.
