    So ima Huge Sony PS person. BUT I really wanted to play halo so I gave in and got this xbox and I gotta admit I enjoy playing on Xbox haha. The new gen controllers feel good with the grip it has and with the game pass it’s worth it. System works great !

    It's the most affordable option for next Gen consoles, has for reading things online from developers ,this console is supposedly holding them back in compatibility

    Great option for getting into latest gen gaming. I didn’t need to seek out an X series. This worked geat with my 1080p tv and surround system. I didn’t need a disc drive, just something to get into the world of XBox. I ended up purchasing the extra memory.

    Great for emulation!! And the game pass is excellent with tons of games. However the storage space is really low and the memory expansion is expensive.

    I wish it was the xbox series X. This will do for now until we can buy one. It’s a great little powerful machine. We have it hooked up to our 82 inch LG ThinQ 4k HDR. It makes a lot of the games so pretty. The load screens are fast and make it loading into a game quick.
