    I personally think it’s ass unless u don’t have money

    Budget console w budget performance and storage

    Would just cop the X

    lmfao he obviously doesn’t want to spend that much and he was asking if the S would be a viable long term option, didn’t ask what you thought of it otherwise

    the console will last him a solid 3-5 years and he’ll be able to play all the same games as you at almost the same resolution and FPS, for at least $200 less. sounds like a win to me

    also I got 10 games on my Series S rn, 4 of which are newer triple A games, so how much storage do you REALLY need?

    not tryna pick sides here but like i said 4K is the current TV standard and the S only reaching 1440p leaves one 1/4 of pixel quality missing

    most current games runs the same FPS but i cant see the S guaranteeing 60fps on Halo, Fable, Perfect Dark, GTA6, Starfield, next Doom, TES6, next Assassins Creed, etc etc

    so yeah if u got $300 and a 1080p screen then the S is perfect for now, perfect for catching up if u missed last gen

    plus AMD's new tech means lower performance machines achieving vastly greater results

    oh yeah, of course the resolution is the main pitfall but a lot of people don’t care/won’t notice that difference anyways

    the Series X is obviously the better machine, but for the next 3 years i don’t see it being worth $200 more than the Series S unless you really care about resolution. i have no doubts that they’ll get Infinite and similar high profile games running at 60 either

    yeah but not wanting to spend a little more for a console you will have for 20 years and use for countless hours is stupid

    like he'll spend that $200 on fastfood and weed in the next week why not just actually invest in a better machine

    Series S runs some games at below 1080p which sucks on a 55 inch 4K

    also YOU may have 10 games but COD alone is like 200gb+ thats like a third of your console gone instantly. The storage on the Series X and PS5 isnt enough either

    not if you’ve only got the Cold War multiplayer installed like me

    i get what you’re saying, pretty much the same as magic was saying. i was just arguing against it being ass it’s the perfect console for soooooo many people

    if Halo Infinite and Forza H5 can hold a perfect 1440p @ 60fps on the Series S and you dont have a 4K screen then yeah you rly dont need the X

  • Jun 6, 2021

    gotta be honest though anything under 1440p on a 4K screen at 55+ inches looks unplayable for me imo

    I've seen some decent ones on offer up but it could be a little sketchy.
    Best bet is to make a Walmart account and have your info ready and use the Hotstock app to know when the walmart drops are. Ive literally gotten 3 of them so far off that.

    Bruh you lying ass mf. Got the noti. Immediately clicked to Microsoft page and it said out of stock.

    Unity said the same thing then managed to get 5 of them for all his friends

    Keep trying

    It takes more than one try
    I think I hit on 3 out 5 of tries. Also make a walmart account and have your info already in to make it faster.
