Since the moment I bought Series X, I knew it was my last console. I bought it for the amazing BC library and enhanced games.

I've owned an XBOX SX since August 2021, and I've mostly played PS4\XO generation games on it that I missed before.

From its sale, I can get a maximum of 50% of what I paid for it... So let it stand on the shelf, especially since there is no XBOX region in my country, so I often bought games cheaper than on PS5.

Honestly I might buy a used series X if they manage to jailbreak the thing so I could emulate absolutelly everything and anything on it.
But then again, might as well get a PC and save money on the headache medicine.

I think this question was valid before the third party rumors, if you owned both.

It is shocking to the extent that Xbox does almost absolutely nothing to justify itself as a unique purchase.

It offers nothing more than the PS5 hardware-wise, and lacks a similar controller.

Exclusives either aren’t there or are meh.

Even GamePass, their former crown jewel has been matched on the PS5, and is experiencing a terrible run of content.

It’s as if Microsoft did the bare minimum to launch a console.

How about here in Brazil where the Series S has a higher MSRP than the PS5 and no disc are distributed anymore for the Series X? :ROFLMAO:

What's the point of a thread like this on a forum like this?

Can't wait for phase to blow over so the front page of this site will stop looking like an Xbox shrine 🥱🥱

The Series S does not have a higher MSRP here, the series X however, does.

Series S MSRP: R$ 3.599
PS5 Slim Digital MSRP: R$ 3.799

A 5% difference between a PS5 and a Series S. :ROFLMAO:

My point still stands.
okay sure but thats not really the reality, a quick google search shows that most retailers are selling it for much cheaper than that.
further proof that its not even worth the MSRP lol

Well that is not on MS, that is just retailer wanting to get rid of old units that aren't selling.

If I'm not mistaken you can already emulate on the series X

I think it's great that everyone is selling their Series consoles.

If I manage to get an used Series S with controller for 50€ I'll probably get one, as I can still use the controller on the PC while the console goes to an older TV for streaming services (cheaper than a FireTV, for example).
Heck, I'd even pay 100€ for an used Series X.

No, I plan on selling a decent amount of third party games I have on it and getting them again on PS4/PS5. I still want to use my Series X for first party games and a couple of third party games. Too much of a rickety ship to stay on as my primary platform.
