Full backwards compatible would be incredible! I hope Microsoft goes back and makes more games backwards compatible. They own so many publishers now and they could work something out with the publishers. They managed to get all the call of duty games on Xbox One/Series and Activision even sees the value in backwards compatible and extra sales off old games
I’m hoping for the Tony Hawk games

@newjackgaming88 That is really cool but I have no experience with that sort of stuff so I never tried it. I don't know how to download emulators and games. I did try play ps2 on my pc years ago and it didn't work for me
@@intraw831so am I my friend, I really want to play “American Wasteland”
Bro it's definitely worth buying i wouldn't be able to play gta 6 or college football 25 when they come out if i didnt have it
lol I’m literally buying one bc I didn’t know this😂😢
@@vietnameeseguy I'm still grinding for the money
It'll be on PS5 as well, get one of those for cheaper. Don't buy a Series X for One game lmao
GTA 6 isn’t out 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
Just bought one because GTA 6 is coming
You forgot to add 4K movies, with HDR and Dolby Atmos.
True!
Having the Series X and S, a PS5, and a nice gaming PC I still go for the Series X above the others (mainly because of the comfort of my couch vs my PC desk chair). It really comes down to where you built your library last generation though as people will stay where their money is invested and may not have the ability to own both consoles. I've always been team XBOX and PC. Having the Play Anywhere and Game Pass Ultimate is just a better deal than what Sony offers. The PS5 is nice don't get me wrong. Once you've played through those first party single player titles you aren't left with anything unique on the PS5 (again unless that's where your digital\physical library is) that just makes you stick with it other than the promise of more first party single player titles in the same franchises or hopefully a new one that will catch fire. Those games are good and only a few really lived up to the hype for me and I can only play through them two or three times before the novelty or the story fail to keep my interest. I feel the XBOX gives you more and has a stronger backwards compatibility library that let's you go back and grab games from the OG XBOX that you maybe never played and there's some real gems there as well. I also run RetroArch on my Series S and that's something Sony can't do as well.
Facts, most people disregard this now, especially since more and more people are going full digital instead of disk-owned. It's been one of my consideration points and I'm still undecided, but I'll probably go with Series X, as I've previously owned an Xbox One S and have a library of over 100 games owned. Plus, gamepass is just unbeatable at its price.
I like your comment and the points you made. I’ve always had PlayStation except the first Xbox only for some time before it died. I had a time in life from like 2018-2022 where I was thinking to myself gaming was foolish. Then last year at some point my interest spiked again all around in the gaming world. Original ps4 was is still working to this day but I wanted something new. In November I bought my first real gaming pc and I put good money into it. Ran into a lot of different issues so I was feeling down, so I got a ps5 which was random but great in maybe February ? I don’t have a lot of time to game it cause work and family but it’s nice having the pc and ps5, I have since fixed the pc and it runs but I get indie games on it and save the triple A for console. Ps5 has been sitting since I finished rdr2. A close friend has a series s and I play it here and there. For some reason I want a Xbox x now. Also like you said , gaming at the desk with a pc can be hard at times, that’s where my ps5 is. So now I want the console where I can just lounge on a couch.
I had PS5 but my kid wanted an Xbox so I got them a series s, I have series x and switch. Next gen I want a gaming pc. I didn’t care for Sony and PlayStation.
The enhanced backwards compatibility can't be understated, it really is incredible. I played 4 player split screen on Black Ops 2 and I'm not joking when I say it was perfectly clear to look at and buttery smooth 60 FPS, even in Zombies! I don't need to tell you how that's not possible on original hardware. It's too bad I needed to sell my Series X to pay bills, I'll get another one someday.
I actually play my xbox SERIES S way more than my ps5. Like you mentioned I found a lot of my ps3 collection for cheap with 360 games on the Microsoft store. But gamepass. You can't beat playing Forza 5, Forza Motorsport sport and many other great games on day 1. Just downloaded NBA2k24 and MLB the show 24 just now. Yes games look a little better on ps5 but it's not that much of a difference imo. At least for the types of games I play
As someone that went through a headache with their pc due to the scan and repair headache all the time , i can stand by and say thay the Xbox series X has saved my love for gaming. Scanning and repairing was auch a headache. Would pay more in the long run for something that is gonna work all the time
I'm looking to get one in 2024 to play some Xbox One and 360 games I've been picking up!
I bought the Series X with extra controller, rechargeable battery backs, 3 TB expansion storage, Turtle Beach Wireless and Bluetooth compatible headset, Backbone for my phone on the go. I can literally play my Xbox anywhere as long as I have my phone or Microsoft surface with me. Power house eco system.
total cost?
Big regret getting Xbox Series S, disc drive is much missed.
Thinking of buying one today
What is your honest on the Xbox Series X in 2024?
Could be better but better than Xbox one days and what ps currently is 😂
Able to pick up the Halo Infinity limited edition version of this console at retail.. Worth purchasing?
They have it on Game Pass
They have the limited edition console on Game pass?@@bbyfacex3
The 20th aneversary??? Yes totally
@@ozxgamer727 Yes sir
Halo Infinite is old, I played it in beautiful 4K on my One X, which I still use. Although the game was mediocre.
I bought my Series X recently just for the back compat but it's pretty cool overall.
How much trash or dust does that thing suck in because the holes on the top are massive. I try to keep it protected from dust the best I can but I was hoping that wouldn't be a problem in the future . Can you give any advice on what to do as far as that goes?
@@zacheryyoung9426 the fans at the top of the Xbox blow outwards, so it shouldn't suck anything up. Keep your place clean, vacuum regularly and don't worry about it. Seems like you should clean your Xbox once every 18-24 months from what I have seen online.
@WeWaltRun OK thank you that definitely helps out knowing that.
Xbox series x + game pass is the best option for gaming, at the moment!!!
Just get a Pc at that point
Yeah, just put a PC in your lounge. Not a good option to replace a console.
@@buddhabinaural Get a room mf
PC its a grater investment in price and space.
Playstation has Playstation plus for the same price as gamepass with better games
I'm still thinking about getting the Xbox Series X, sooner or later it might be impossible to get the Xbox Series X with the disc drive? I don't think much to the new all white Xbox Series X and the all digital future looks bad. I'm looking forward to Elders Scrolls 6. I've heard Steam is coming to Xbox, the question is when?
I'm starting to get a bit pissed off with my Series X. I bought it to compliment my Switch (and PC, PS4 and WiiU), except nothing comes out on it, meaning I'm just using my Switch and occasionally the others for everything. Next 5 games I plan on buying Trails From Zero, Trails Through Daybreak, Reynatis, Tokyo Xanadu Ex and Ys X. Not one of them coming to Series X. What's the fucking point? No Tales games, no fuck all when it comes to RPG's. I don't understand why an entire genre is being left off the console. No Star Ocean SSR2. No Octopath. There are literally no RPG's. They're even coming out on PS4 still but for some reason Xbox can't manage.
All the games I'm actually enjoying on Xbox are all on the other platforms too. It's just redundant to me.
i have had the series S for awhile, should i get a series X? i’d figure the disc would be useful from time to time
I'm wanting a XBSX for Christmas this year and I hope I get one, I downloaded the Xbox app before I get the Xbox series x console.
The PS5 was worth it because it's had some worthwhile exclusives. The Series X was never worth it over the One X, which I still love and play to this day. Anything else , yep, PS5 it is. Or even on Steam Deck which is a marvel of a PC handheld.
Xbox series X also known as Xbox 10
People must call it Xbox 10 ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ ❤❤❤❤ 8:30
Really I was wondering what the official name was . When I went to buy it they called it the series X here . Is that what the X stands for?
@@zacheryyoung9426 series X stand for 10
?
It's because the Xbox Series X is the tenth generation of the Xbox console. The "X" in "Xbox Series X" stands for the Roman numeral "10", which is the number of generations that the Xbox has gone through. The first Xbox console was released in 2001, so the Xbox Series X is the tenth console in the Xbox family, hence the name "Xbox Series X" or "Xbox 10".

It’s only worth if there’s a sale. I got one recently at Target for $300. If anybody here is looking to buy this console I suggest waiting a couple months and catch a holiday sale.
I very nearly bought one in the black Friday sales, I ended up buying the PS5. I would buy one in 2024 if you could mod it like the original Xbox?
Is it worth buying an Xbox series X in late June 2024 or July 2024? Do they add enough games to game pass to make it worth having a series X? Is a new Xbox console coming out that’s more powerful soon or should I wait for the next gaming console?
I had series s for 3 years and it broke so i'm gonna buy used series x and get games from my friend, i just hope my games and progress are saved on my account
I bought the Xbox Series X specifically for the backwards compatibility and cheaper games lol even though its apparently dead.
Also I love the OG Xbox because of its modding scene from 2005 era when i got into it like back 2006-7 after getting one cheap.
But before then I considered myself a PlayStation Fanboy but somehow have supported Xbox lol just because of its hacking etc 😅 😂
My boyfriend has a PS5 I’m still on a ps4 but haven’t played since having my son. We thought it would be best if I got the Xbox so we could have best of both worlds 🤷🏼♀️ the cost just scares the crap out of me tbh 😅
get a series s!!! so worth it.
I’ve owned the Series X since 2021 and so far here are my pros and cons.
Pros:
Backwards compatibility
Media: renting or buying shows and movies on the Microsoft store
Graphics: top of the line specs in the console market.
Controller: ergonomic and familiar.
UI: simple
Cons:
Lack of first party games
there's still more first party games than playstation. Only in 2024: indiana jones, helblade 2 , avowed, ara, towerborne, dlc starfiield, age of mitholgy, new flight simulator ans some third party like stalker 2, ark 2, etc.... 0 First party games for playstation until march 2025. And on pros, you dont'talk about gamepass ?
I rather like gamepass and the choices there. I have ps+ and not near as many games as game pass, sorry buy true.
If it wasn’t for the lack of games, it could have easily been my console of choice. But Microsoft is being lazy asses and not giving us any new games so PS5 it is then!
@@sergeestevesand all those games don't compare to the 2022 GOW, Spiderman 2 and Helldivers
I have two modded 360s. An Xk3y and JTAG a modded WII for my GameCube games. Also an Xbox One X which i mostly use for Kodi and a PS5 for great games both PS4 & 5 exclusives. My answer is no series X isn't worth it.
Emulation isn't backwards compatibility. Which is what Xbox cons you into thinking it is. Digital only means when license's run out they can alter your games. On a disc they can't do that.
But each to their own.
It’s not fully backwards compatible,that sucks.
That is true! I still use my Xbox 360
It’s the only console I’m considering, I have a PC for games now but wanting to collect physical games and have a console for GTA 6. The future Xbox games look good and are new. I had a PS4 the whole generation so the exclusives like last of us why would I buy a PS5 to play it on there when I’ve played it on PS4
im think of buying one but i dont know to buy it or wait for the new xbox
is there something you need me to make a video on with my channel?
Same I haven’t played video games since my roomate had a series x a year ago and before that it was back in 2017. I plan on getting back in to gaming when next gen releases
I recently sold my Xbox because I realized most games were cross gen anyway. There are a few that are exclusive to Xbox, But owing a PS5, I made a choice to keep the PS5. I already own a pc as well, So if there is really something I want to try from Xbox, I can just play it on pc. My Series X was collecting dust and rarely used it, So that was a sign that I really didn't need it. I remember the 360 and PS3 days when it was worth owning both because of the great exclusives, Xbox 360 was one of my favorite consoles and probably still is, Even with the red rings of death I got on multiple replacements lol.
i can play need for speed most wanted an all the old need for speed on my xbox series in dev mode !
is there something you need me to make a video on with my channel?
If you haven’t owned an Xbox or been a PS fanboy like me. Yes it’s amazing! Who would ever think quick resume would be such an upgrade compared to the PS5. The gamepass comes with EA. I always thought PS was better cause of the exclusives but I’ve only played every god of war. Not worth it. Controllers Xbox is friendlier, camera any Logitech works unlike PS. The downloading takes for ever on Xbox compared to PS5. I’ll say both consoles have the games I play. I’ve always said sport games look a lot if not way Better then PS. PS movie type games look so real a cinematic type of feel. Unlike the Xbox the story type games look cartoonish…
I might get one tommorow should i?
I’ve got a old ps4 slim and its loud and not so great at running games
Ya but where are the massive new gen games? GTA 6 in two more years? RDR3 in 2030?
Oh they will be on the next Xbox in 2026.
New skate game coming out, new fable game coming out, some good horror games coming out, ES7, gta 6, new ninja assassins creed game, idk I’m excited
Just buy batman return to arham bundle, which has arkham city and asylum
You know the games suck when people are more excited playing past games lol
I know pa5 is my main console I'm serious of getting the xbox x after my nephew giving me the xbox one s
Go for it! Why not 😄
@GarrettMusic1 that's what I'm doing on the xbox one s playing my favourite games on it again and I'm getting gamer score haha
@@Sleepster1999 haha yeah, are you still playing odyssey or have you moved on to other games?
@GarrettMusic1 was origins I'm playing on the xbox one s thou I'm playing quite a few games for it haha. Will gey to odyssey for the xbox saying its free on game pass
@@Sleepster1999 you should get black flag that’s another good one
Series x is better than the ps5 honestly. But the lack of first party games is brutal. I've been loyal to xbox since the 360 but it's pretty damn bad now
Which platform would you recommend for achievement/trophy hunting
👀 2024 is stacked!!! This year- Hellblade 2, Avowed, Indiana Jones, COD Black Ops Gulf War, Towerbourne South Of Midnight Diablo 4. Console exclusive Stalker 2 and Ark 2 all Gamepass MLB The Show 24 NBA 2k24 about to and just came in.
Incredible variety and value Xbox is rocking and the true console to game on if your a gamer 💯💚
@@NinjaSquirrel30 would you recommend it over the ps5?
@@Radiation_76 300%
@@Radiation_76definitely not, ps5 has way better exclusives
Every game i wanna play is either cross gen or ps5 exclusive so i dont even use my xbox anymore
This review just made me appreciate my PS5 even more
😅
idk bout that because xbox series x can play any ps1 ps2 psp gamecube wii xbox360 and more lol js i love my xbox over anything
Xbox still retro
Just buy a 2nd hand 360.....and No Xbox forced people to go digital this generation gamers didn't really have a choice, Xbox trying to monopolise that's all and that's why after years of being a Xbox supporter I changed to the PS5 which has far better 1st party games and almost have 100% disc alternatives and oh they don't fill you so much false hope and promises by Phil Spencer.... 😂
No. Buy a PC. You will thank me later. You can play xbox, pc and ps5 games.
I also prefer pc but
You cant play all xbox / ps5 exclusives
And it is very deficult to build a pc for 450usd that is equvilant to the consols performance ,
Pc seems complex and like a hassle also looks more expensive I think causally a console is better but it honestly varies person to person
PC's are too much hassle and the new 7 series and 40 series cards from both suck. They are barely an upgrade over last gen cards.
When I did have one it sat and was basically a glorified 4K/Blu Ray Disc player, since I collect those. So I said nah, this thing is a dust collector. Then again I'm not a hardcore gamer at ALL.
Xbox series X For physical media yes get it right now guys !!!! because Xbox is going to make a new series x all digital there going to stop making them this summer !! and also this will be my last physical Xbox series x ever and I will stick with ps5 physical media for now. I just hope we don't go all digital ? if we do I will never buy video game console ever again I'll just get a gaming pc at this point good luck guys !! ..
Ive been on the fence about selling mine. I have a ps5 and a steam deck. I just haven’t had a reason to play it in the last 6 months.
I sold my Xbox year ago. Just didn't touch it after I got PS5
Same I use my One X anyway, nothing new or worth it for another $500 Xbox. PS5 and Steam Deck are great for me. Plenty.
People can buy Xbox it’s worth it
I bought the series X a year ago and I can honestly tell you DO NOT BUT IT over the Xbox One, Xbox One S or the Xbox One X !! It’s not worth it and it’s a waste of money. You get a tiny bit better graphics but who cares. It doesn’t play any better !!!!!!
No definitely not mine is faulty dosent play discs lots of bugs and glitches my friend got his a few months ago brand new and not a single disc woumd work on it tbe controller for it is laughably bad first controller ive ever had stick drift on.
I have a PS5 Idk why I want one lol there really is no point but im keen to play starfield and age of empires
Why Xbox 10 is so expensive than Xbox series S?????????
Bc it’s better obviously
Don't get out much do you?
@@drummer7557 what do trying to say sir ❓❓❓❓❓❓❓❓❓
As someone who owns both series x and ps5 , as much as i love tne series x i still come back to the ps5 more often
Beautiful console own both X & S the s is sleek when I'm out bed & breakfast or overnight hotel stay friends house and the X my babies you like what you like ask yourself how am I enjoying my gaming experience 65in Dolby 2.1 lead HDMI etc. with home theater surround sound next to Series X my bedroom set up find your space an game on bout to go play NMS 🎮
I love xbox💚
Have both consoles rhe PS5 and Series X and let's be clear for 2024 gaming industry Series X keep very strong and exaggerated PS5 doesn't shine like before even the Dual Sense 2 aren't the best in a badly shaped controller design where my Elite 2 is far way superior without tiredness my hands. As well have many similar games on the both consoles and depends if I'll connect these consoles for my 60" 4K TV or my Samsung Odyssey G7 then Series X looks always sharper more detailed. Arma Reforger, MSFS which demand powerful PC has no problem on the Series X and those games will probably never hit the PS marketplace.
SpongeBob edition
I will be saving up for that one
I mistakenly bought a PS5 at the beginning of this generation because a friend talked me into it. However, since then, I have sold it and bought a XboX series X and I couldn't be happier 😊
Thank you for the great video.
I had 2 xbox series x ... one in 2022 and one in 2023... i sold them both. Dont care about buying consolrs anything this generation is the worst of all tome.
so basically you enjoy xbox one hehe games hahah in a good hardware, these games could be played in JB PS4 PRO. I prefer PS4 PRO games compared to PS5
Good to kno. Glad that the only reason for getting a xbox series x is to play old ass titles but oh wait its the best console ever made. Imgaine the delusion in the sentence lmao 🤣
No, it is not worth it.

Yeah for sure it’s 2024, we should have at least 60fps
exactly it the gamepass effect ms don't care because everything on gamepass I own ps5 have 25 physical ps5 games & guess how many on my series x zero just use gamepass
No games lol
Xbox series X Def worth picking up or trading in PS 5 for. An actual AAA 1st party roadmap & Gamepass. Quick resume back compat. G1 Jockey or Champion Jockey or Frankie Dettori/ Melbourne Cup challenge. I wish to come back compat on store with FPS boost.
It would be amazing if we had a new AAA horse racing game career mode, OL racing and create a jockey OL would be great so many racing fans in UK/Ireland Australia France USA is a crying shame no company has come through and and made 1.
do not buy this trash. we constantly have issues even logging into our profile. we get constant white screen issues on login across the majority of accounts on the xbox. the only fix is apparently a soft reset, which we refuse to do due to how many save files arent yet backed up on cloud, which we cant do, because it wont let us login to said profile to back up the data....
also, It took us hours to play even a single game when we bought this device and its been nothing but a nightmare ever since. our handheld lenovo legion go plays games better than this hunk of junk and never has any bugs to deal with. steer clear of xbox. Their consoles these days are a convoluted mess. I spend more time troubleshooting than playing on this device. im shocked more people havent made a fuss about this. Microsoft and their ridiculous updates are constantly making their devices unusable. the 360 may be slower and less powerful, but atleast it functioned.... ever since the xbox one, their consoles have become so complicated to get working that you may aswell just get a PC. this is a console! Its supposed to be relatively plug and play! microsoft seems to have forgotten that.
Buy xbox only if you already own ps5 otherwise if you think Xbox is better then ps5 then you don’t know shit about gaming
I think I'll just buy an xbox 360 E
I just brought one today
No it's not worth it get a PC
