Microsoft is crushing it with gamepass. And the little jabs at Sony make me laugh. A 20$dev mode for homebrew 😚 XD. Sony won't ever allow that. Back compat with any emu that will run. The starry night Xbox background looks alot like the old PS2 starry night background. Microsoft just needs a real JRPG dev now. I vote mistwalker lost oddesy is probably the best not a Ff but it should be rpg.
Oh hey let's not forget that if you just do your rewards and gp quests you can get that subscription free and still have leftovers for paid games. I get avg 18-20k points a month and gp is only 12k. So win win win.
Absolutely! Could not agree more. I am both a Playstation and Xbox fan however the Xbox One completely let me down so I ended up selling it. Decided to give this new gen a chance and I love it. Own both the series S and X as well as a PS5 and the ecosystem is just phenomenal. Game pass is a game changer. Love my ps5 too but it's collecting dust atm.
Of the 3 main systems - the XsX, PS5, snd switch OLED, i keep coming back to my xbox the most. Absolutely killed it this generation. Gamepass is just sooo good.
True game pass is 10 bucks a month so if I do some math it’s 120 a year and say you use game pass for the entire console generation that’s seven years that would be 840 bucks but In other countries The price could be a little bit different so this might not be accurate
@@arsnole3942 plus you can play games on pc. It really is worth the price, I’m an Xbox fan at heart. The 360 made up a good majority of my middle/highschool days and having all of those games at easy access on a current gen Xbox is awesome. I left Xbox before GP came out but personally I want the series x more just for game pass, I got the series s rn but I might not even keep it and just return it (I got 15 days to return it as long as it’s not broken or damaged) if I can find a series x or I might just buy a pc on Boxing Day instead and get a rtx 30 series instead. Either way I want to have access to the game pass
You can get game pass 1yr passes online cheap, add 3yrs worth and convert the lot to ultimate for $1. In my country ultimate is $15 a month. Did 3 years for $6.6 a month instead.
additionally, people may be interested to know that the console downloads in stand by mode if you choose instant on mode. i did not know that until now
I thought the dev mode was a free download? Thats the way to get all the old games from all consoles right? I saw a video about getting it all set up...looks like a bit of a pain but worth it in the end. Playing Super Smash on an Xbox has to be cool af.
@@frankystrings is there a list of games available? Before I sign up for another monthly subscription I would like to see what is there. The idea of being able to play Skies of Arcadia on next gen makes my mouth water. That was one of the most underrated RPG's of all time lol
@@uptheroad9 It's a upscaling technology that is used mostly on PC but Xbox sseries consoles and ps5 now have this tech, the series s will benefit from it tremendously the upscaling will look native 4k on games that run 1080p and or 1440p on the series s also framerates will be pretty much locked in with higher resolution as well but its up to devs to use the tech.
There are. If you buy an an external SSD you can download all games to it to save space on your internal storage. However the only gripe with this method is the transfer time between SSD and your new Xbox. It will take a few extra minutes of your time but your storage space will be tremendously expanded. This is a fraction of the time it takes to reinstall games completely on your new console if you wanted to play by their rules.
@@jondoe2k except if you store x/s games on an external hard drive you have to transfer to internal hard drive to play games unless they are Xbox,360 or xbone games. I have the memory card and external hard drive.
@@MrBacon717 only a few games are not quick enough to run from ex-ssd. I play most my games from the card, but the games I do have to move over take a small few minutes at 4+gbps.
I’ve been gaming since video games were created. The Xbox Series X is the best console ever created. We are currently experiencing the golden age of gaming and Xbox is at the forefront.
Nah I own a ss and ps5 the ps5 is better in most ways the xbox doesn't feel next gen it just feels like an xbox and the ps5 controller is so good compared to the xbox pad I'll judge on the exclusives
@@tristman8413 I agree that the PS5 controller is awesome! That being said Sony is royally screwing up this gen. You cant find a console ANYWHERE and that has caused a lot of people I know that are hardcore Playstation people to go with the Series S. And all of them are blown away by what it offers. My best friend has a PS5 and a Series X and barely touches the PS. Just not enough games. I was only going to get a PS5 this gen but now I am going to wait a few years for them to flesh it out. I am upgrading from a One X to the S (because its literally the only one you can find) and the load times and game resume are key. The PS5 will be awesome at some point but its just not worth the effort of monitoring stores to get a 500 buck book end as there really is nothing on it.
Yeah, FPS boost is one of my favourite features too, so it's a shame we haven't heard a peep from it since 5 months ago, which was when the last batch of FPS boost was put out.
I noticed that even though I don't have a 4k TV there is a noticeable clarity and brightness compared to the Xbox one. I only imagine how it looks on a 4k OLED display.
That's great but these are just Xbox features they're not specific to the series x or series s as the title implies which has got to be the most annoying thing to run into on RU-vid this is called clickbait if you truly represent Xbox or expect to get money off their ad revenue could you at least do a better job in the future
Now gamepass is on pc there really isn’t any point in buying a Xbox, Your better off buying a PC over an series x, it’s quicker, better graphics, bigger storage, games are cheaper etc if you are an Xbox fanboy then the series s is the best to get.
I have actually used the co pilot feature on my og xbox one with 2 different broken controllers, very useful If you have that situation and you don't have the money to get a new controller. Luckily I wasn't working with that for too long, upgraded to a series s soon after😄
not sure about everyone else but I always have the A (or X on PS) on the crease part below the thumb and the X (or square) is the thumb itself. Easier and faster to switch that way.
I've been playing destiny 2 for over a year with my friends, huge d1 vet. I finally got a series s to get the 60 fps and better fov and I'm so glad I was able to get one
I gotta rush tho my Xbox one X died about 3 months ago, I missed out on everything gaming including playing with my friends since then, I need a console now more than ever an I really really want an xbox series X
@Keith Nowak the hell are you talking about? We have Forza 5 and Halo out within weeks… with Redfall and Starfield out next year. More AAA next gen games in the next year and a half than sony for sure
did you know you can dim the controller and xbox startup light. i was messing around i didn't know this its part of night mode. or you can turn them completely off
Me 2 no where to be found. What a shame that Microsoft don't deliver more consoles Series X and do nothing to stop people's to buy all of them in one scoop and resale them individually for a $1000 , not cool.
game pass only gives you the first part of the game ..you really should just buy the game and get the whole game with it only game pass'' GAME PASS IS TOO HIGH PRICED
Game Pass: Buy up to 36 months for 45€ each of Xbox gold and upgrade it to Game Pass Ultimate with the 1€ offer. You'll pay nothing more. That's 3 years Game Pass Ultimate for 3,78€ per month.
Basically the 2 consoles in this generation are dead even in my opinion. Firstly if you have friends you game with, get whatever they get because that’s who you’re going to play with anyway (and game share if you trust them) If thst doesn’t matter, it comes down to what you want with the console. Want better exclusives and an advanced controller? Pick up a ps5. You want the best gaming Netflix like service with 100’s of games and a great all in one entertainment device? Pick up a series x. You almost can’t go wrong
Is this supposed to be a video of stuff you didn't know the Xbox s/x could do... Unless you're going from PlayStation to Xbox you should already know all this stuff....
If you have 2 xbox consle with the same account will it let you play a online multi-player game whether 1 Xbox connected to the same wife or 1 Xbox outside the country?
agreed, I'm a old school PC gamer but got me an xbox at launch. Great machine, but dang, how do you play shooters with a controller? my aim (if I don't use aim assist) is really bad. Bought a extra mouse and keyboard for my xbox for that purpose, but yeah, only so many games can make use of it. Also the downside is, even while playing with m/k I need to have my controller active, every 15min it shuts itself down asking me to connect a controller. They should fix that.
For a person(can’t call myself a gamer) who hasn’t played game between 2000-2020 this video was great and taught me things I never would’ve known. Great job on the video! I know for 20 years out I chose the series X, but I really believe they got it right all the way around while PlayStation just seems to have stayed the same from what I can tell.
I find it odd that xbox keeps telling people how great it is and what can do with it, it's a shame No one can get hold of a New console and has been sold out on the store since day one. It would be nice to have a new console that we could actually try some of those cool features on. Just a thought
Bacon lolol actually I got mine through my phone service provider, came with a year of Xbox game pass ultimate and only cost 40 bucks more than retail.....like I said, they're out there if you open your eyes to find them
We need FULL button remapping for ALL Xbox controllers not just the Elite controller, being disabled I'll never be able to use the paddles of on the Elite and there are many games I often need to switch the triggers to the face buttons and you can't because they arbitrarily limit it to the Elite controller.
Me 2 What a shame that Microsoft don't deliver more consoles and do nothing to stop people's to buy all of them in one scoop and resale them individually for a $1000 , not cool.
Now If Xbox would allow external drives being used for captures to sync, microphones to be recorded directly on the Xbox during game play, and streaming’s to be simplified for RU-vid directly on Xbox.
The series x/s are the best versions of Xbox since xbox360 . I've been faithful to playstation since I got the PS4 back in 2013 but now I'm back baby ! I got me a series X last month but I'll grab a PS5 in the spring ..maybe . Really enjoying Xbox rn ngl. The only reason I still turn my PS4 on is because I have hella skins etc on Apex 💀
