Starfield and Forza Motorsport: Coming 2023
The Xbox is good for the price but since I bought mine used the controllers buttons were stuck inside and the springs didn’t really work just buy it new and you should be fine
It’s faster than x box one s even with my slow Wi-Fi
When I got it I was thinking I will have 512GB storage but it only had 364.0 GB I didn’t know at that time but the ever storage is for the
System but I feel like they need it to say what like how was I supposed to know that it’s 200 GB less storage from what it said on the box but generally good
Absolutely amazing console, no build up of discs just online downloading!. In my opinion it’s so much easier to use and much more enjoyable to play. If anyone is struggling which console is best to buy with an honourable price, then it’s this one.
Just wish the memory was bigger… you can fill the 512gb with just a few big games so I had to buy an external hdd to store xbox one games. But I’m happy with i
Just keep in mind, some games that were accessible on xbox one, to play from your hard drive. Are forced to play only using your internal memory. It’s not a big deal. But time consuming transferring the game you want to play, that’s restricted this way, why theres no option to down spec the lesser graphic games is beyond me, as you can play a game like rogue legacy 2 on your xbox one hard drive, but on the series s/x your forced to play this game from your internal storage. It’s just me not picking. All in all it is a better device then the old xbox one.
I got the Xbox Series S refurbished for 149.99. The console and controller look brand new, with no marks and works perfectly.
I’ve had a PS5 since launch but got the Series S as it was a good deal plus I wanted to take advantage of Game Pass and play Starfield when it comes out. So you’ll probably see me comparing the two consoles a lot.
First the good. As a console it’s powerful enough to cope with all the new releases. The size of the thing is astonishingly small compared to the PS5 and the minimalistic design is clean and crisp. The customisable menus and options are great, especially folders which is currently sorely missing from the PS5. The ability to buy and play games from the original Xbox to the current generation is great for nostalgia (I’m very tempted to revisit Lost Odyssey). The ability to carry on where you left off when switching between games is handled a lot better on the Xbox than PS5. Also the Game Pass subscription is good value and means you rarely have to purchase additional games. Lets face it, considering there’s no disc drive most people who purchase the Series S will be subscribing to Game Pass.
Then the bad points. When I first turned the console on I decided to install Halo Infinite and Forza 5, then I realised I had used way over half of the available hard disk space. Basically the base drive space is not big enough and you have no option than to buy an additional hard drive if you want more than a handful of games installed. This can be achieved either through an external hard drive or an overpriced official expansion. I found the controller feels a bit cheap compared to the PS5, nothing to ruin the experience but it just doesn’t feel next gen to me. In my opinion the Xbox’s UI feels quite cluttered and whilst it gets the job done, it does feel a bit like menus within menus. I’ve also noticed that there are a few bugs within the UI where on rare occasions the menus/processes hang or don’t load.
Overall I can’t fault the Xbox Series S for the price I paid. It’s great value for money and although it isn’t as powerful as the Series X or PS5, it’s a an excellent option for those who don’t want to spend a huge amount on a next gen console. There are a few minor annoyances as I previously mentioned, with the only major one being the tiny hard drive.
