    Needed the new xbox to play NCAA 25. Perfect gaming console at my price point. Does everything i need it do. I dont play a variety of games so the need for more storage was a non issue for me.

    I have both the series S and Series X so i do know the differences between the 2. The Series S unbelievable at $300 and was even more of a steal at $250 during the holidays. It would cost $700 to build a PC that would perform equivalently to the Series S. Wether you want a next gen experience on a budget or looking for a second Xbox, the series S is a great putchase.
