radicaldude Posted May 20, 2022 Report Share Posted May 20, 2022 I'm pretty sure we would see more people selling series systems for this reason only, as time progresses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shoebox Series X on the other hand nobody cares about when stock drops. And series L sales are so bad that it can be found in stock and Amazon and other places easily Altough I think series X sales will be quite less on TP because it has 12 TFLOPs of powa and all, it's the legit other current gen console. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My understanding is the former is only successful if - has extreme monetisation/ mtx - is staggered / drip content - sequels likely to have larger gaps between them vs traditional ala carte selling GP aim is to get people to lock-in with multi year subs currently, selling xboxes is secondary benefit These schemes of excess monetization will come later, once Satya demands that Spender show returns on his purchases via company money 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, that's why it got sold out today instantly. They never announce the pre-book date in advance, hence it used to be in stock for a while. But today it's gone.

Considering your PS5 and Switch are your main consoles - XSS is actually a pretty good console to enjoy xbox exclusives ( whenever they release ) and good third party releases . Won't suggest buying it at MRP though . You can find pre owned one for around 28k with 7/8 months warranty left . Or for around 22-24k without warranty. Sony's subscription service also has good third party titles now . Now dear ponies don't get offended - Yes it has good first party titles but i m pretty sure he has already played most of them ( and donated quite a few to the IVG library as well ) . So yeah would suggest check out games on Gamepass and PS plus extra . And then decide whether you need an XSS or not depending on games you want to play . Also I own an XSS and it runs most games very well . Played Hitman 3 on it recently and it works very well . If you're playing on a 4k TV it does pretty good upscaling as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fatpigeon Posted May 20, 2022 Report Share Posted May 20, 2022 I love playstation but halo is my pehla pyaar, baaki xbox library except gears can take a hike as far as I am concerned. Proof that I am a pony : 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnK Posted May 20, 2022 Report Share Posted May 20, 2022 Enjoying GamesPass doesn’t change the fact that you are pony or not. Supporting all the majority of the good things that Sony does & Criticising all the majority bad stuff M$ does makes everyone a Pony. Minority good or bad acceptance doesn’t change anything. Like Sony charging $10 for GoT DC upgrade over the top of DLC charge or Not allowing Spider-Man owners to upgrade to Remaster without buying Miles was obviously a bad thing. & should be criticised. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven’t played it & am in no position to comment on it’s quality. I just quoted what he ( @fatpigeon) said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
