XSS is literally one of the worst decisions MS has done in a long time

not only is it not popular, it makes devs lives harder for no great reason

It continues to be an Amazon best seller. And it still sells out. Casuals and parents will continue to eat that up. It’s 40% of the Xbox sales.

Yeah, I never understood it. A couple people like it tho, I guess
 
Always said the XSS should have just been a digital only Series X

But then word is Germany are very anti digital only?

This literally makes no sense. It was sold out for like 6 months. A few months after launch it accounted for 40% of new consumers.

It makes devs lives harder? No harder than last gen. In what way does it make it harder?

And you say all this when next gen hasn't started. Which is actually MS's biggest mistake. A year on the market with nothing and even then it will only be getting games held back by last gen anyway. Where is the incentive?

*pushes glasses up bridge* eight months, technically…

We don't know how this picture taken. This could be when the place was opened of anything. XSS is a very hot item and people love it.

Well Linnman is part of digital foundry who are accused of being biased to Xbox.
 
People on Gaf and Era that have an S are thoroughly enjoying theirs. And you know those sites lean Sony, so that is saying something.
Every now and again the sound just goes out. Not sure why that is and i have to switch it off for a second, then the sound re engages. Other than that, it's perfect! I'm rocking F.S. right now. I'm legit blown away! Looks so damn good!

Try a factory reset maybe?

Mine doesn't do that.
 
Mine doesn't do that.
Mine either. I have both an X and an S and the S is a very capable console. My biggest gripe is that it doesn't play X1X enhanced games (i.e. you get the One S version)...sure, you may get better framerates than the One S but miss out on any graphical enhancements due to the Series S having less ram than the X1X. Otherwise tho, you get same loading times as Series X and as more next gen games are released, this little guy will shine. It should be able to do everything the X can do for next gen games but just at a lower rez target.
