Yup, true. 

 

They are very big in the UK. 

 

In India they seem to attract parents who want to buy their kids a console. Everytime I visit a CeX store, I see kids with parents. 

 

They provide a safe buying experience, with minimal risk. 

Yeah i have also seen kids with parents there. Safe buying experience with warranty and guaranteed buyback/ exchange should indeed attract parents who visit there .

LOL! Why would anyone even order a Series S at that price when Amazon is retailing it for 31.5K right now.

I'm going there tomorrow to sell my SX for 40k, and now I can show this news and haggle for a better price 

Did you go there ?

They increased their prices for PS5 for both Disc and digital according to new MRP and are offering more amount in return. 

But left prices for XSX unchanged

Yeah I can see this totally working

 

Dev to MS: Hey I know you guys promised every single one of your customers that Series S will support all games that come to Series X, but we want you to break your promise. Lie to all your customers and create a PR and Image disaster for yourselves that will be worse than the RRoD disaster. All because we can't develop a game that will not work on what is a scaled down PC and we want the minimum requirements to be higher (As per PC standards)

 

Frankly, MS should have thought of this before. Series S should have been a Digital Only Series X. But what's done is done. Devs also can't complain. Either they have to be competent to make a good game for both platforms or avoid Xbox and lose all the money from that platform.

 

Anyways, nowadays there really is no reason to complain I think. If God of War Ragnarok can run on a base PS4, devs can really create good games on an XSS.

if XSS goes away, devs will have to work less

All this has been rebutted in this video already.

 

Series S has no separate developer kit. Series x has it inbuilt, they are so similar.
