    I upgraded from One X to Series X, and even though One X was really powerful, it doesn’t come close to what the Series X offers! I tired MW on it and it’s stable 120fps with 4K graphics. The game is not way more responsive than before. I tried Forza Horizon, that game looks absolute gorgeous with the upgrades graphics and ray tracing support. You would drive around for hours just to enjoy the environment. I’m really happy that I was able to get it and I really hope that everyone else will get soon and becomes more available!

    I thought there waa going to be competition between PS5 and this console. Turns out i was gravely mistaken, the engine this console has is unmatched. The way it smoothtly navigates through its interface with no delays and glitches is incredible. The graphic qualities i could not believe what i was seeing it looked so realistic and just delivered in every way Microsoft intended on doing. Iwould highly recommend if anyone can just give it a shot.

    Honesty I’ve been a PlayStation guy since the beginning. But after Microsoft acquired Bethesda Games Studios and future titles being XBox console exclusives, I decided to invest in the Series X. And I’m glad I did. As for the “3 star” for the controller, it’s good but I don’t like that style. Since I’ve used the PS controller for so long I just an XBox supported PS style controller. All in all, this was a great purchase.

    Great Console for Almost Everything

    Awesome console, especially if you get it when on sale. I am shocked by how much you can do on this console, with emulators being supported by using Dev Mode(which also allows people to develop games without expensive developer hardware), or the hundreds of games Game Pass gives you access to. Not to mention the amazing backwards compatibility it has, supporting all Xbox One games, and almost all Xbox 360 games, which is pretty big for me. Only issue i’ve had is the storage. Although 1TB isn’t insignificant, it fills up super quick with some of the newer games, Call of Duty for example, taking 250GB. The storage expansion sucks on this console unfortunately. Unlike the PS5 where you can simply purchase a normal sized M.2 SSD to expand the storage, here you’re forced to choose ‘licensed’ official memory expansion cards. This wouldn’t be terrible if they didn’t charge significantly more than what they’re worth. 4 years ago the prices of the storage might’ve made sense, but charging $350 for a 2tb SSD in 2024 is criminal, especially when there are no other options.

    Best Xbox console I’ve ever owned and I’ve had every iteration since the first. It runs absolutely silent, the graphics are phenomenal and the design blends right into my home. I have added an Elite Series 2 controller which is so great.

    It’s okay, looks nice and has good performance and all. But the amount of games are lacking tbh. I also hate the controller. The buttons feel very cheap, esp the ab/xy ones compared to a PS5 controller. And it having a rechargeable battery is a huge bummer. Using AA batteries in a controller for a $500 console seems cheap. Love the console design though. It s fan of the UI, however. Not enough Xbox exclusives to really make it worth my time, personally. Bought in May 2024 and used it only in December when Indiana jones came out.

    The console is amazing and powerful, if you want the full xbox experience with the best graphics, frame rates and over all performance this is the one to get. It’s not as cost effective as the series s but it allows you to play your games at full capacity with no hiccups (so long as the devs optimize the games) over all I highly recommend it especially for hardcore gamers that want the full and best experience possible on this platform.

    The backward compatibility king...

    A fantastic, next-gen console with the best backward compatibility in the business. That's the biggest difference between a Series X and a PlayStation 5. On PS5, your older PS4 games will work, but there's often zero boost in things like framerate, resolution, etc., unless if the developer has gone back to enable it. Even when they do, it's not as seamless of a transition between the PS4 and PS5 version. Meanwhile, the XSX's Smart Delivery gives you the best possible version of the game that works without any hassle. Just read up on the Cyberpunk 2077 PS4/PS5 fiasco if you want detailed info on the hassles going from a PS4 version of a game to a PS5 version can cause. However, even when it comes to simply play last-gen titles, the XSX handles them best. An example I can give here is Overwatch. I have both the Xbox One and PS4 versions. On XSX, the XB1 version supports 120hz aka 120fps. On PS5, the PS4 version does not support 120fps at all. There are other games where this is the same situation. On top of this, it's nice playing even older gen titles, like Xbox 360 and even original Xbox, with added enhancements like increased FPS and resolution, so again, if this is something you like to do the XSX is your best bet. However, not all is perfect. The Blu-Ray player on the XSX and audio support leave a lot to be desired and the Xbox's operating system is far too complicated for my liking. The audio situation is pretty well-known, but apparently an update at some point removed the Bitstream option so this causes issues with playing Dolby Atmos/Digital even after downloading the recommended Dolby app. Whenever I'm playing a Blu-Ray, the audio that plays is Dolby Digital TrueHD. The player does not say that it is playing Dolby Atmos. Meanwhile, the PS5 does say it is playing Dolby Atmos but that is because it has the option for Bitstream. As far as the operating system goes, it's just too busy. It's relatively easy to understand, but I feel like Microsoft could really learn to simplify and speed up their OS. Aside from those few downsides, this is an excellent system worthy of your time, especially for older gen titles. Can't tell you how fun it has been going back to play titles like Fallout 4 and Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic at 60fps.
