    I accept it I was wrong. Series S is awesome. It is my first Xbox console and I am loving it sooo much. Load speed is superb. I am never going back to PS. I tried buying Ps5 first but it was not available from a long time and I never wanted to give my extra hard earned money for a Ps5. Final verdict I am not going back to PS. Xbox series S a really a great console.

      I just recently got my Series S almost two weeks ago. I haven’t turned on my PS5 since I’ve had the Xbox. Super quick and super convenient. The backwards compatibility and the Gamepass is what drawn me towards Xbox. I’ve always been a PlayStation fan… but I have to give Xbox their flowers on this fr. Only thing is the graphics. I prefer 4K over 1080

    If it wasn’t for God of War Ragnarok, Spider-Man 2 & Wolverine exclusivity, then Series S is the Best Buy for someone who can afford only one console. GamePass is truly a blessing when it comes to playing old titles from 360 era & new launch titles like Sniper elite 5, Halo Infinite, Plague Tale 2, Stalker & Starfield.

    I loved my time with the Series S. I eventually did sell it and get a Series X and I do think that the graphics are much better on it compared to the S (not just with resolution but also with aliasing and textures) but that doesn't diminish my respect for the Series S. For its size and price, it's amazing.

      I felt that way after going from ps4 to Series S. At this point it’s still an awesome feature but when it only takes like 10 secs to get into a game from a standstill on PS5 and series. I realize I don’t need it that much l. I was more in ahhh with the speed since I don’t usually play more than one game at a time where going back and forth is an issue. But with that said give me the option to take it and I will.

    For me it was definitely availability at first that turned me to the Series S. After failing miserably trying to get PS5 on launch day and months after I decided that the first gaming console I could find in the store I’d get. Turned out to be a Switch first. After that I started seeing Series S in my local Walmart but I wasn’t ready to pull the trigger and buy one. Finally after some investigation I asked my wife for a Series S for Christmas and she did. Luckily I had a 360 at one time so I had some games to play but once I discovered Game Pass I haven’t looked back since.

    I've always stuck to One console policy, and this generation went with Switch, seeing how healthy it's 3rd party support was at the start. The last direct, after seeing where Nintendo's focus was headed (jrpgs and farming games), it finally pushed me to get a Series S. Can't wait for the console to arrive.

    • @flyingplantwhale545
      @flyingplantwhale545 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@Fresh.Travels Sorry but I honestly couldn't answer the TV question, since I'm still rocking a 1080p Monitor. As far as I know, the console is able to outsput a solid 2K image on most games, so I'm pretty sure it would look just fine. The space question will depend on seperate use cases. You can just do some simple maths on that one. Most of my major games weigh around 50-60GB each, so usually I'm able to store around 5 games on the console at any time. One thing that sucks, is that you can't really use the full 500GB storage. I suppose because of stuff allocated for updates and the OS, the console gives you somewhere under 400gb for actual games storage. However, you can get yourself a fairly cheap SSD that you can hook up to a USB port and easily move your game library around that way. Overall, it's just a well-performing, streamlined, lightning fast device to use. I'm super happy with it, despite not being the biggest fan of the Digital-only era of gaming.

    • @MaxDendy
      @MaxDendy  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      As far as 4tv yeah it is worth it. Xbox Series S offers the best value for the buck. About the amount of games you can download, it will depend on the games. Some games are more than 100gb, some are less than 10gb.

I like to game but I'm not an avid gamer like I used to be being grown up sucks lol so for me the differences it has from Series X doesn't bother me it'll get the job done and as times been going on the system has been getting more praise. Let's hop into the next Gen and save a couple bucks at the same time!

The series x has a better resolutions, better framerate and better raytracing. The series s is very fun. But if you want the best graphics: then definitely go for the series x. Maybe i see a big difference because I play on a big tv.

    Bought a series S 2 months ago, I was planning on using the series S till I get my PC upgraded (it was almost impossible to upgrade my PC cuz of scalpers and the whole mining situation). Then I saw gamepass for a month for 1$ and decided to try it out and that made me stick to my series S. A month ago, I even bought gamepass subscription to last me a year and honestly, I'm enjoying it so far. It's small, which gives the illusion that it's a weak hardware but seriously, it's not. It's truly next gen and I'm happy with what I got for 299 only.

      @archnemesis2.0 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@m.b2948 I wouldn't call it "barely" an upgrade, Xbox One X was made for gaming at native 4k and during it's lifespan it did that perfectly (and still does at few games till this day). You kinda have the similar hardware now with the Series S but the catch is that it's for 1080p 120fps or 1440p 60Fps (it even does 1440p 120fps in some games). So the target resolution is lower than what was with Xbox One X cuz back in 2017, the hardware was capable of doing that. Your whole point would've made sense if the Series S was a 4K console but it's not. Plus Series S will be supported by Microsoft with frequent updates and it has the same SDK as Xbox Series X (that means next gen) unlike One X. One X isn't the 4K king anymore, it's the Series X and the One X is outdated in current gen.

Give it 5 more years I wonder how many games the series s will be able to play in 120fps. As more complex next gen games get developed. Serues s isn't a terrible console it captured the market of first time buyers and people who wanted to step into the next gen.

    I have all 3 also. The series s is a beast and I would recommend it to anyone that doesnt have a 4k TV. I'm usually on my series x on my lg c1 which Is amazing but my series s on my older TV is pretty impressive. I disagree a little bit tho I can definitely tell the difference in graphics and performance. Quick resume is awesome when it works but I have had issues with it. Sometimes my games will not load and I'll have to restart them. Ps5 is great too I just don't like having to pay up to 70 bucks a game. I haven't bought a single game on Xbox cuz I'm always using gamepass. U can find deals online on gamepass also just have to look around. You can also earn microsoft points and get it for free. I did it for 3 or 4 months it just gets annoying after ahwile.

    4-You, get way more than you pay for.

      I have 4k 50 inches , 60 hrz TV. I don’t want to regret after buying series S. The TV is able to upscale 1080p to 4K decently, but would like to know what kind of output I can expect from series s at 60hrz in these titles.

    I own all XBOX systems and I'll have to say I was hesitant to pick up the Series S since I managed to get a Series X early after release. I was very surprised at how much better the SS was even over my One X. Yes the resolution isn't as sharp and it may drop a few more frames here and there than the Series X but unless you are on a high end TV you won't really tell much of a difference. The most important part, the gameplay experience, is just that much better that previous consoles and practically the same between the SS and SX. So, if you're on the fence and don't need to take full advantage of your high end TV, need physical media, or don't need as much storage because you're a light or casual gamer than the Series S will fill your gaming needs beautifully. Also, I really love to travel with it when I go out of town for work. I just hook it up to the hotel TV and break out my headphones and have fun gaming rather than trying to find something to watch on cable TV...yuck!

    Nice little run through... one thing you might want to check out for the Series S is the UpSpec gaming monitor, I love mine.
    Also two extra things the Series S can do (and X for that matter).
    Firstly you can buy a developer licence and use retroarch to play emulators. Secondly you can also attach a keyboard/mouse and play some games that way, or use Edge for productivity.

Just to put that into context, try getting a Zen 2 8 core for a PC build and see how much cash you've got left from £250. BTW have you paid for dev mode on your Xboxes? You can use them as emulator boxes and play all your Nintendo games on them too(and PS1,2 & 3, Dreamcast, shoot almost everything not Xbox), you just have to load the files from external storage.
