    The price for a next generation console is amazing. I wanted an Xbox but did not really want to pay another 500 dollars for a system it is great overall.

    Ordered online and scheduled a pick up. It was smooth despite it being during a holiday rush. We love our console and we've been using XBox since it was released.

    I like XBox but the cost versus content is not very good. They need to have more memory in a system that relies on digital downloads.

    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 !

    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.
