If we are really going to be pushing into an all digital future for gaming, then I hope we get a fund going for people to crack these consoles and have offline backups of these games for when they decide we can't have them anymore.

No disc drive. You know, you KNOW Sony's going to very much use this fact for their new iteration.
I think they'll go down the same road, digital is where the cash is made
@@BFG-rr9cvI still would like to have tangeable (and resellable) items. I don't mind reselling digital licences for a small fee, but I do would like to still have that option. For instance, FFXVI is a nice game, but it's replayability isn't up to standard for me. A disc I can resell, digitally I'm "stuck" with it, in the current state of how it works. FIX that, and then "all digital" will really, REALLY take off.
@@TheTekknicianits been all digital for years on pc, not really a big deal. If you dont like the pc game you refund it within the parameters to do so. I think people need to get past the old days where you would sell old games you dont play anymore.
@LowLifeDust we know it's been like this on pc... this is about console not pc.. I bought cyberpunk digitally on ps5 and it was completely broken. Didn't even play 5 minutes of it. Sony refused a refund. Microsoft have happily accepted refunds in the past. Honestly, fuck sony
Okay so? My point is that a large subset of gamers have been digital only and it was not the end of everything. I cant speak for sonys refund practices. I can only speak to how only digital has been a fine way of game delivery with an easier refund method usually. USUALLY. I think some people hold on to the past too much i understand the want for physical copies but at the same time they are a waste of plastic, space and money spent to manufacture them
An issue I have with the Series X refresh is the fact that it doesn't seem like you can lay it on it's side. It sucks that they're taking away quite a few things from the base model.
Why does that matter?
I guess they'll have holders for that
@@slapshotjack9806his entertainment stand probably doesn’t have space for a standing console
@@Hamood113 I was gonna state that it takes up less (useable) space standing up but I most definitely forgot that it might not fit in peoples drawers where they may put them
@@Hamood113 get a new one it’s not my problem
when you realize that it's not an x"BOX" anymore
😂 true
TRUE THE X BOX SERIES X ORIGINAL LOOKS LIKE THEY WANT TO CAD AND CREATED A HOLLOW RECTANGLE. NOT DETAIL, A BLACK CARTON
The only problem I have with disckless is that it takes away the nostalgia of having a console. I can't bring it out in 20 years and play it if it's not supported!
A digital series X is literally pointless. Microsoft needs to get their heads out of their asses I don’t know who’s making these garbage decisions.
Your tv soon won’t support it anymore
Dont connect it to the internet.
My xbox360 became defunct with its scart connection when I bought a smart tv.
@@camera2painting you know those can run on a HDMI, right?
cant wait for the xAirpurifier to be released, would look nice besides my psDubaiTower & xFridge
7th gen: George Foreman grill vs. white bathroom scales
8th gen: streaming box vs. DVR
9th gen: Dubai floor fan vs. cyber trashcan note incinerator used by Edna from the Incredibles
The issue with digital only is that a large part of the US which is their biggest market is lacking decent broadband, with some parts of the country having practically zero access to decent internet. My building for example isn't allowing any service to be hooked up because they're forcing the tenants to use the wifi which is 10mbps. I had to go with T-Mobile home internet to get decent speeds but that's nowhere near fiber.
@@randompersonontheinternet8790being online ain’t dumb tho, it’s for stats and achievements. I won’t touch a game if I’m not connected to the internet cause I want my stuff tracked
Starlink exists.
@@nexxusty Starlink costs around 100 dollars a month just for 3-25MB/s, and the weather can mess up the signal anytime. Also starlink isn't even available in half of the US.
@@nexxustynobody gonna use that
Even if you buy physical, you still need to download the rest of the data to play the game
The thing about the controller is this: GuliKit have already launched a Controller that is leagues above all others (Hall-effect sticks & triggers, mechanical face buttons, etc) for the same price as a standard Dualshock 4. As soon as they bring out Playstation & X-Box compatible controllers of the same standard, which they are apparently already working on - Sony & Microsoft won't have much of a choice but to step up their controllers. We just might have a future ahead of us where Hall-effect is the standard for Gaming Controllers. Personally I'm looking forward to seeing what GuliKit are cooking up.
Im so scared of a digital future. Im glad I have a normal series X.
You know it’s the same thing right?
@slapshotjack9806 if you mean that the cylindrical console is the same as a series x but digital, yes I know. I mean beyond that even.
why, just go pc
If that happens. I'm probably going to go full PC gaming. It's better digitally on PC because of Cheaper games and free online.
Not me lol. I’ve been digital for over a decade and nothing and has happened and never will. If anything y’all are still polluting the earth with plastic
We need this controller. Should’ve came with the new Xbox in 2020
Not new if it’s 3 years old 😂😂
Do you know it will come in Fallout blue too Fallout 3 remaster if it doesn't come out for the final doom remaster
They probably did that on purpose
Should have came with the Xbox one
@@AZITHEMLGPROi mean with them having the warranty as a sticker with a screw behindnit was it
I can see why they would do that as Its their business type
Sell Better version of a console but scam the controllers 😂
It does feel Somewhat Confortable But st the same time its quality is missing slighly with the Sticks being literally the same for maybe up to over 20 years by now
And with the sticker deal
I actually prefer removable batteries. it's easier to just switch batteries than have it die on you and you'd have to plug it in mid game.
That's why you own more than one controller
@@WayneF23You pause the game briefly, swap the pack or batteries. Better than having to pause game and set the controller on a charger stand or plug it in awkwardly where cable length might not match your seating to screen setup.
Get a cradle dock and extra controller. Been doing this since the 360. You never miss a beat.
@@Leah-yz4rj oh I have! It does work but the lithium ion battery if sealed in still wears out. It’s harder to replace without then adding to e-waste problem.
I like it because I can just replace the rechargeable batteries when they get too old.
The only feature I want which I've wanted since the last gen consoles came out. Is the ability to use your own Bluetooth headphones instead of having to go out and buy gaming headphones that are almost the price of the consoles🤦🏾♂️
I actually like the AA version of the controller because I use rechargeable batteries. Glad this new one seems to be swappable battery but unfortunately it will probably incompatible with rechargeable AA batteries.
its not going away, Austin just got his facts wrong.
Same. I like the AA capabilities
I've got an aftermarket rechargeable batterie replacement for the AA unit. So microsoft could come up with a solutions that would support both, since it's already existing.
I wouldn't be surprised if the "swappable" batttery uses a proprietary connector and will only work with Officially Xbox Licensed Batteries similar to the SSD Add-Ons you can get for the current Series X.
It's almost as if the battery inside the new controller would be rechargeable 🤔
new xbox is the definition of "you will own nothing and you will be happy with it". good ewaste that needs to be consistently updated over wifi and drain everyone's monthly cap!
You pretty much summed up what all corporates do nowadays, they treat their customers like cows.
Basically these consoles will become ewaste once the servers go offline like the wii u and 3ds because they can't play physical media unlike those systems.
@@cosmicsvids sad stuff happening in the tech scene right now. gone are the days of physical media and now you have digital licenses on everything that can be revoked at a moment's notice.
@@HossamiToo all you can do really is not buy there stuff anymore and just stick to older stuff or pc because on pc you can pirate if they remove a game. You need either piracy or physcial media to preserve games.
@@cosmicsvids I definitely will be getting a PC in the near future.
I really hope the new Xbox has at least an option to purchase a disc drive separately like the rumoured PS5 Slim. I buy many more digital games now than before, but I still really appreciate having the option for both.
One thing I like about the xbox controller is how long the AA batteries last. In my case I think it lasts something around 20 hours of usage (it depends on the battery brand). I have 2 pairs of those duracell rechargeable packs and I always keep one pack ready while I'm using the other. And thats wild when I compare to my Dualsenses which I have to charge all the time. I'm ok with microsoft using rechargeable batteries inside the new controllers but i'm afraid the battery life will be similar to Dualsense. Let's see
Yeah that exactly my concern. These people who thinks AA is outdated probably never used a pair of Eneloops. HUGE difference!
@@Pyke_ exactly!
My Ikea LADDA 2450Mah batteries lasted 37 hours on xbox one controller(without rumble I think). Rechargeable AA batteries for LIFE
@@rich22221holy shit, we've come a long way from nimh
I love how long of a charge the xbox controllers have. Sony controllers die too fast
This will definitely make the OG series x become highly sought after for disc buyers, since the refresh series x will not have a disc drive. We all knew it was evenutally coming to this. Games now of days are going beyond 4k blu ray disc capacity. Sony has no plans on making an 8k blu ray drive. Not to mention, sonys upcoming refresh, ps5 slim will no longer come with a disc drive built in and you will have to buy the disc drive separately. So, even sony is starting to head into an all digital direction now as well.
That's the slim version and there gona be alot of back lash dont think we in the era for this
PC gaming has been all digital for decades now. It's not as big of a deal as people make it out to be imo. And that's as someone who still buys disks from time to time. I know eventually it's not gonna be the case anymore. It's a shame. At least with Xbox I'll have access to my games everywhere though.
Final Fantasy VII had four disks on PS1 and it was not a problem. Capacity of a Blu-Ray is not the issue here. It is all about locking you in to their ecosystems. For a casual gamer this hardly matters but for a dedicated gamer or hobbyist it is a troublesome progression.
@@InjimaruXi was going to say exactly this, all digital has been a thing for years on pc and is just normal, imo not a big deal that theres no discs
Games don't run off the disc... not since the xbox one x at least. They install from the disc onto your drive. The disc is ONLY there as a license key to play the game
Was hoping theyd switch to hall effect sensors in place of potentiometers for the joysticks (you would never get stick drift)
Yeah I ended up buying the Gamesir G7 SE because both my series S controllers now have stick drift.
Agreed, was also shocked they didn't go this route. OR maybe they are saving those for the Elite or "Luxury" controllers to have those in? But at least they are planning on having them replaceable in case you do get stick drift.
Or they're just banking on the controller breaking and people buying new ones
If they don’t I’m not getting th controller not to mention it’s ugly as fuck and looks uncomfortable as fuck
@@gqinc1202that's my take.. money machine to brrrrr
How is moving from AAs to an internal rechargeable battery in any way more sustainable?
I believe everything you said about retailers dropping support if there are no “physical games “.
Most of the discs simply house the license now. I installed Call of Duty from the disc and 90% of the install is still on the internal SSD. However, 2TB needs to be the starting standard moving forward.
@@Packin-Heat”cheap out” when Microsoft has deeper pockets than anyone , yeah I don’t think that’s what it is bud
dude most games don't even release in a perfect state day one. they need some patches to make them playable. Why would you want a non playable games in a disc. Its not just console companies, its game developers too.
Later large storage is not a thing..cloud gaming is the future..for storage probably will be used just to install apps to start the game..and the rest of the data is by cloud..
That is objectively not true.
@@ajibsaladka not true.
Definitely getting the new controller but I’m very glad I got the first series x
Got mine less than a week ago, finally🥲
@@kburr96rip
@@kburr96but at the same time here is the long awaited welcome to the next gen or current gen club
Series L
Series X the GOAT. 🔥
it says right on the document you show that the battery is going to be swappable, which means NOT built in. Since you can already swap out rechargable battery packs OR AA batteries currently, This doesn't sound like an upgrade.
Can't say I'm sad to see the AA batteries go. But it still had an upside, as in easy to replace. As way to many I know did see their PS3/4 controller as E-waste and tossed it away when it went bad vs trying to replace the battery.
All my games are physical discs. I love having all my games to collect. With that said i guess i wont be getting this “revised” version. Probably wouldn’t have anyway since there isn’t any actual hardware differences. Hopefully they come out with a more powerful version that has a disc drive sometime in the future.
I think their next step is to get completely rid of physical discs, but as a physical media fan I feel you.
The new Xbox might show slighty better than the current series x because of the HDMI throughput but nothing worth switching for
They are literally switching to all digital that is the master plan. Its to maximize profits and to take away your possessions. You will own nothing and you will be happy I guess.
They won't. Move on.
You really need to get a hold on reality. Game collection is literally dead with this generation. This is the last.
It's over.
I hope you are wrong about the no disk drive thing, the only reason I even bought an X-box was for the backwards compatibility, if they take that out I'm done.
The disc drive has nothing to do with backwards compatibility.
@trshcln6937, it kinda does 360 discs can be put in and played if you already own it or if it is no longer on the store. If they do remove it then you will have to re-buy what you own
@@trshcln6937 It does if you already own the games and don't want to buy them again.
@@trshcln6937How are you suppose to play backwards compatible original Xbox, Xbox 360 and Xbox One games that have had their digital licenses removed from the Microsoft Store ? The only way you can play them is from inserting the game disc into the system.
@@fungamegg7339 the 360 disc doesn’t play the game it just triggers the Xbox to download a backwards compatible version of the game your not playing from the actual disc. Plus if you owned the game before and it was played on your Xbox account then you can download and play it without even inserting a disc as long as it’s in the backwards compatibility list of games
with these coming out in 2024 i would have hope they would at least 2 usb c ports on the front have bluetooth 5.3 and Wifi 7 as that would help with cloud streaming
For those who don’t know, Phil Spencer did tweet that the leak was from a while ago and the picture of the console isn’t final
Digital only is horrible. Not only is it (way) more expensive for the gamer, because you can’t buy games second hand or on discount, but it’s also very poor for lots of gamers with poor internet connections. For those it takes days to download huge games.
I’m one of those people with terrible internet (I’d be lucky to see 1mb/s, most of the time it’s hovering around 500-750kb/s) and I can’t remember the last time I bought a disc.
Sure I can save $10 by going to the store but first I’d need to put on pants and drive there, and deal with people, risk them not even having it in stock, and then get the game which has a broken case and scratched disc, bring it home and need to download a 5gb update anyway which I’d need to let sit for the next day or two anyway
These days no games actually come on the disk itself. The disk is just a way to prove you own the game and have the right to play.
PC has been digital only for a while. Welcome to the future kid
Also no it's not more expensive lmfao
it's 2023 disc drives are obsolete tbh. time to move on.
That next controller has "direct to cloud" which is pretty interesting, how that works without a dongle I'm struggling to visualize. Imagine if the controller has internet connectivity and wireless video capabilities? Wow.
I like the new design (i like the current one as well) but it is a big risk going all digital unless they plan to reduce the price of the games!? I doubt it would happen though.
Not sure why anyone would think there would be a Pro verison this gen. There was only one last gen as the PS4 and Xbox One especially were so underpowered.
We went from a mini fridge to rolling pin 💀
Microsoft: “We are going to put the maximum amount of effort into optimizing old games for backwards compatibility”
Also Microsoft: “you can’t use the discs from our old, disc only console”
Also killing off the 360 store. Microsoft has the most amount of resources to keep old media alive, yet doesn't seem to give a flying fuck about it. Hypocrites.
Disc version of the Xbox Series X is for sale right now, if you want that... go buy it.
Microsoft has been lying from the start, they never cared about backwards compatibility. They don't care about you, they care about forcing an all digital future because it strips you of all control.
@@fordgtguy Until it breaks and you're shit out of luck in the future.
Anything they published is on gamepass and they will likely pass the blame to the publishers who did upgrade their games for backwards capability on disc for not putting them on GP. Or as said they might offer a separate drive addon.
The disk drive removal kinda sucks I got the ps5 disk version cause I enjoy collecting
I may have rewinded that random green screen error multiple times as an editor
I never understood why the double A batteries are hated. Microsoft gives you the option to use rechargeable double A using any mAh, I am not an avid user but my batteries take weeks to drain.
$500 is ALOT for a digital system
PS5 digital is $450 in most countries with only 1TB so it makes sense
It’s 2tb soooo yea. Cope
They sold it at a loss dude. You want them to go bankrupt? 😂
@@taekwoncrawfish9418Definitely under the age of 14
How did so many people miss the "swappable" call out? Also I don't see a world where they don't offer an external disc drive. That would top the handling of the XBoxOne launch as worse decisions ever made. How do retailers mass sell a digital game? Are there that many people in the world that go to Best Buy to buy a digital copy of a game they could just start downloading while sitting on their couch?
They COULD work with game companies to offer copies with more bonuses or something,but I think that the game companies want to remove the middle man between them and your cash!
You'd have to go THEIR store,not Walmart or whatever.
And they can charge what ever they want for them!🫤
They have a patent for an external disc drive already so they are working on one however many years it will be until that is a thing we can actually buy.
GameStop is literally going to take a massive Blockbuster sized L when Sony and Microsoft go all digital. The gaming industry is way past its peak and now its just going to get worse until we find a new means of entertainment.
Im enjoying this tasteful chill more serious video a lot and great music choice!
very curious to see how the motion controls are utilized in the new controller, considering the ps4 controller advertised that and i think i used it ?once?
I remember a while back I think phill Spencer mentioned how they want to get your owned games part of either gamepass or the cloud (not to sure which). Maybe this could be the solution for the disc less redesign
There was a patent for being able to verify ownership of physical discs and convert it to digital for the digital only console.
There's a couple problems with it though. Someone could buy a physical game, verify it, and then return the game while still keeping digital ownership.
Also because it's digital, you don't actually own it anymore, so it would still be worth keeping the physical copy. (imagine converting your games to digital, your account gets banned or hacked for some reason, and then your physical disc is unusable because it's already linked to an account you can no longer access).
I love that hoverboard in the background.
if you can actually replace worn out analog sticks that would be amazing. something like that should have been just standard in controllers from the beginning.
You can always just sell digital download cards and that would provide incentives as long as the company selling the physical digital download card gets some of the profit.
Controller looks kinda cool tbh
ye
Still has the constant look, which is a good thing.
Boring look. Feels cheaply made. The whole design now of the Xbox Series X is meh. You release they haven’t changed much of the Xbox controller since the original. I don’t know what you’re talking about.
@@sO_RoNerYYeah I agree. They kinda peaked with the Series Controllers. And no removable batteries is a no from me.
@squiddyword7224 the battery is still removable, it's just not AA batteries anymore
Honestly i think the disc drive will be as an external instead because if lets say the disc drive was to fail people can service just the disc drive while using their console or if the disc drive isn't expensive they could just replace it instead.
I don't understand why someone doesn't make an attachment of a DVD/Blu-ray drive that is backwards compatible with all consoles made by the same company.. then if the company makes it people have the option to buy the add-on that can play all their library games
Accelerometer is for the lift to wake, DualSense has gyroscope that can be used for movement.
I noticed that too and I 100% agree.
I didn’t realise Xbox didn’t have motion controls?
@@vigour6786 yup it does not. There are ways around it like a Brook kit or emulsion but nothing native.
Austin has some serious connections in the console gaming industry. He was the first one to tear down a Series X and now this. Keep it up bro!
Lot of channels and sites covered this before him. He was kinda late even.
I'm hoping by "accelerometer" they mean gyro. I learned the two are not actually the same, and if it's only a literal accelerometer, then it won't actually be usable for aiming the way the dualsense is.
I can already see the humidifier memes
see some render glitches at 1:08 and 1:48 and 11:20
Looking forward for the new controller to use it on PC. currently using xss controller and it's great and reliable
My design would include a 12TB SSD drive where you can have a lot of games stored on it and not worry about having to uninstall and then reinstall games that you would want to play
Bro no just get a pc
good idea but 12tb on xbox?!!?? OMG
no more AA batteries? so when you run out of juice now.. you'll have to wait for it to charge? instead of just replacing the batteries?
Isn't it more "sustainable" to have removeable/replaceable batteries like they are now, as opposed to having a battery that will, inevitably, degrade?
Having to switch out the replacement batteries could be worse long term. If your swapping them out a lot that is. If you have one rechargeable battery that you could swap out later down the road, It could be better. Rather than quickly changing the one use aaa batteries
I'm still using Eneloops I bought seven years ago. Great rechargeable batteries. Meanwhile I have PS4 controllers that don't even hold a charge anymore. Not an issue with my Xbox controllers.
Yes
It is. They also say rechargable and replaceable battery.
it also says swappable right? doesn't that mean its still removeable/replaceable?
I think I would be a big mistake if no disc drive was not on the new xbox as I like a disc drive because once I completed a game like armored core 6 I can go to a shop and trade it in to make a new game cheaper you can't do that to a no disc drive not unless a new game from the xbox store is cheaper then a disc version as you don't need the disc or box it comes in.
10:30 I believe this concept has been used since Crackdown, with Microsoft Flight Simulator. A lot of the scenery is streamed over the cloud so that you don't have to download 2 petabytes directly to your computer.
The best thing about the battery pack I'd the ability to hard reset the controller. My original elite controller is a pain in the ass when it won't pair.
I own most of my games digitally now but I really don’t want discs to be entirely phased out, as some of my games are still on disc, and there’s good parts to it, like sharing them with others or playing it after being delisted or something. Speaking of that I wish the 4J studios versions of Minecraft weren’t made unavailable for purchase. I know they were discontinued but if these companies want to make money, they’d at least still sell the old versions so people would buy those right? Sure most might buy the newest version, but there are still people who might get the old version.
I get what you're saying, but Microsoft would rather you buy the bedrock edition instead.
@@Gold171Yeah it just sucks. Cause Legacy Edition isn’t their problem anymore, why would they delist it? And for now while the Xbox 360 Marketplace is still up, you can buy Minecraft Xbox 360 Edition there for $19.99 as usual. So idk why it’s still there on Xbox 360 but not other consoles.
@@tarheelpro87 It is a shame. I know you can get the 4J version physically for most consoles.
@@Gold171 I used to have Minecraft for the Xbox 360 on Disc, but I entered a phase where I acted like I was too grown for Minecraft so I gave it to GameStop, big mistake. But i’m hoping to get myself a gift card and buy it on Xbox 360 before the Marketplace closes.
I'm still gonna take this with a grain of salt, because changes about Xbox and how they do things can happen at any time.
Design went From a refrigerator to a air purifier
I'm just glad Microsoft is putting an accelerometer in their controllers. (No, it's not a gimmick!)
What's a accelerometer
@@initial_kd ok, thanks for telling 👍
Rechargeable AAs are so much easier to deal with and swap that some proprietary li-ion battery.
Me the whole time just waiting for that pop filter stem to perfectly align with his shoulder bc they are the same angle. That is all
so is the new black series s "ellewood" or still the old southbridge model with just upgraded storage?!
ps: me saying if they take away the disc drive, i want at least 5tb of storage, then i see 2tb😢
I still haven't upgraded from my Xbox One S as I pretty much went the pc Gamepass route (RTX 3080 gpu) and use my pc to game nowadays but I definitely want that controller.
Bro I still got my OG Xbox one from 2015 and it still runs quiet as hell, shit the fridge makes more noise
Not excited about build in rechargeable. Removable pack and option for AAs(rechargeable) is better and less wasteful in my opinion.
It says it's "Rechargeable & swappable" so you'll be able to remove it and replace it
They should not leave out the disc drive, many people have it set up in their living room or common areas, it is also used to play movies and like you said older games. Many people still like the hard copy
Yessir!
hot take, i think that double a's in controllers are great. in 15 years every dual sense controller is gonna have battery issues and 360 controllers are still gonna be trotting along because of double a's
im gonna be honest that new xbox controller looks insane it looks way mor conterble than the other xbox controllers i really hope sony shows the ps6 just to see what they look like.
They really don’t want us to have choice huh.
Always liked the feeling of having games on disc just because, I do have digital copies too.
If you like having all your games digital, that’s fine, but it’s not my or any other of the (sadly small) majorities preference.
by the way, if you have a PlayStation, the games are stored on the disc, it just copies the data to the console and it becomes a “key”.
Console owners are the most embarrassing group
hope the elite series will have magnetic hall thumbsticks
We've come such a long way since having cassette tapes
Honestly if they go fully digital then they will have no choice to make digital games cheaper or I think Nintendo will take advantage of this and still use cartridges and become even bigger than it already is, and if Sony and Microsoft become full digital and don't reduce the cost of digital games then I think people will start to leave or jump to pc with game pass and just get games cheaper but I believe if they go fully digital only then both companies will struggle if not fail all together
The still have xsx that have cd drive it is still long time before cd total go away the only pull game when music license is up that cab be like 20 years is any still going play then is the big ? We don't now what nintendo going to do the might go all digital to
prices are still low if current USD value is compared to 2010 and especially in 2000s
It doesn't work that way my boy
Not everyone going to jump to pc on price a good pc 2k and xbox and ps 500 to 600 the won't go anywhere for a long time I know can buy cheaper pc are going be happy with a cheaper pc in the end have fun playing game on any system you have
Pc gamers don’t even use discs for games anymore
as a series x owner i will probably just wait and get an elite series 3 when that comes out, and see if playstation comes out with a PS5 refresh ang go with that since i don't have one, if i have the money to spare lol.
Alright Xbox series x is already a refrigerator but now it’s a SODA CAN
I really pray i can keep using consoles as my 4k bluray player that was half the reason for my xbox series x buy.
I thought it was an Amazon Echo 😂
Looks like a Wi-Fi router
I’ve had games my whole life disk drives take up so much space for possible pc components it’s bitter sweet but an external disk drive might be the only way 😭
To be honest i like the replaceable batteries controller because the batteries can be swapped easily what i think they should do is to give rechargeable battery with controller not built in
@@Materva_ had a PS4 (sold it after god of war Ragnarok) the original battery stayed alot to be honest (5 years) then it would not hold power any more the 100 percent would be gone in a hour
If Microsoft or any game console manufacturer goes totally digital they are going to realize how many of their sales will cease to exist. In many parts of the world, the internet infrastructure isn't there and going all digital adds a ton of latency and other issues. This is what Stadia did and look how long that lasted.
They aren't going all streaming, all digital is totally different
With licensing most consoles need an internet connection to verify, so going digital doesn’t mean anything.
Consoles have also been digital since the PlayStation 3 was released. The physical disk existed for licensing but the whole game was installed on your hard drive.
Disk games when it comes to consoles now-a-days are a fantasy to the consumer and used to justify the existence of companies like GameStop.
@@ColinPMcEvoy but with ps3 98 percent of the time you can pop in a disk, install, and play all without internet.
@@IceYetiWinsstill people don’t have good internet rn they’ll have to take it to a friend or a family member place to update it.
Sorry snakey...you don't get 'digital'.....🙄
The controller looks kinda cool but Im more than a little disappointed to see the disc drive go entirely. Its has all kinds of negative implications for gamers in general and especially those who prefer physical media (me)
Regardless...that lights a fire under my butt to make sure I grab a disc Series X before this new model comes out.
People also forget to say that the new Series X will come with a 2TB internal SSD
Thumb nail got me going “Deco internet rounder”
Don’t really care about rechargeable battery. Case in point because them having batteries built into the controller makes them more expensive to repair. I usually always buy battery packs for my controllers. They are pretty cheap and easily replaced.
Sad to see the Disc drive going away. guess we will be entering an era of "you will own nothing and you will be happy"
I only bought one game for my Xbox Series X, the rest I have played through game pass, and there are lot of killer games I wouldn't have even thought about buying that I've got to experience on game pass. It's a win-win all around.
@@TheBaldrand yet you don’t own the fu**ers. You give them a few dollars to a company they don’t care about you, and if you want to replay those games, you’re shit out of luck, kid. At least I can on steam. I own the licenses to play it even if the game is removed. You console peasants cannot.
@TheBaldr it's not a win win at all. You won't be able to share your games, sell your games, buy games elsewhere and will be slaves to Xbox store/app to buy games, wait for sales (if they're going to go on sale or not). It's s lose lose
@@jponz85if they keep digital codes around though it may not be so much of a problem, or they’ll find a way to make it sharable. But I do hate the no disc thing cause I Re-purchased many of my favorite games digitally so I wouldn’t lose the disc for them or get damaged, but I still have a lot of my other games on disc still, like Call of Duty. I hope we don’t go full digital cause while I prefer getting games digitally, there’s still pros to games on Discs.
@@jponz85 I'm not a pirate. I support game developers.
New controller looks great. Not a fan of the removal of the disc drive as I have quite a few older games I play the disc for on my series X. But I think it will be a great upgrade for all the cloud/gamepass players on series S. I’m not either of those but, Nice.
Good thinking console peasant right here. Upset about the disk drive being removed.
I agree, I’m not a fan of the loss of the disc drive. I still buy disc games over digital, and while I understand the push for all digital there’s still ownership issues and game preservation issues I have with it that keep me buying physical copies. The update to the controller sounds great to me, especially with the rechargeable/replaceable battery aspect.
@@patriotsfan122480 agreed. I have quite the selection of digital games as well. I’m not even upset because the series X is the greatest console I’ve ever owned. Very transportable as well
I feel the same way, hell even with my ps5 I still use ps4/5 disc's (since they're pretty cheaper than digital a lot more than often)
@@mrdrums007 I’m more of a PS player then an Xbox player, but I did get the series X to mostly to play my older Xbox games on. I’m really happy with the backwards compatibility on it, and long as it keeps running I’m good with it as is. Sometimes I pick up a new game for it, but usually in store and on sale, since nothing Xbox has put out game-wise has really made me to, “I have to get this and play it day 1!” The size is definitely better then my PS5 for sure and I know some people actually set it up as an emulator, so it definitely has a ton of uses and fans. Long as they’re happy with their console of choice, that’s all that matters.
I think they'll probably sell an add-on disc drive, because they don't want alienate the gamers who still have physical collections.
Direct to Cloud for the new controller doesn't merit a mention? To me this is huge if they want to really get good latency on Samsung TVs, iPads, etc.
Oh wow rechargeable batteries for a gaming controller!? That's never been made before! Lol
It's been in the elite controllers but most people prefer replaceable batteries. I've had the play and charge kits and its nice when they go bad you just buy a new one for $30 and don't have to toss the controller as well as you have that option to pop in two AA's if you're on the road or you forgot to charge it and can't for whatever reason.
Am I the only one who wants batteries? I love switching my battery pack from one another instead of waiting to charge my controller or using it plugged in. Also, better for the environment because you can switch out the batteries easily when they start to die.
As a PC gamer it makes sense to me. It is nice to be able to share games with friends though. Except when they don't give them them back. Friends suck.
I got my series x on launch day, since then I've bought one physical disc game from a buddy everything else is digital. Even though I do exclusively play digital games I still love the option of being able to pop in any of my old physical games from previous gens generations
Na, thats like having hole in your car next to the fuel flap with an internal furnace to have the option to burn coal.
You either keep up with the times or get left behind 🤷.
The fact people are still playing on old gen 3 years after launch is f**cking embarrassing as it is.
@@mrw5131I personally still don’t see any advantages upgrading from my One S to the series x|s. This console generation is so boring and the margin between them is so low, it just feels like an upgraded Xbox one or ps4 super pro or something. Since my one s works perfectly fine I don’t have the need to spend money on a “new gen” console.
I’m sorry for being embarrassing
@inick4049 8 teraflops of processing power isn't a small difference 💀.
Game developers have called the series s a potato, you're more than welcome to go read the article 👍, you got scammed into buying a reskinned xbox one x
Things I’m worried about:
1. Longevity of all digit support. A console may not be supported as time goes on, and that will also bring way more value to older systems.
2. SSDs have a certain lifespan, with the current systems having a special key that is used only for the initial storage, it is NOT easy to just swap a dying drive.
Built in battery is not more "sustainable", as once the internal battery is dead, so is the controller's wireless function. Being able to use re-chargable batteries that you can replace is more sustainable. As you get the upside of rechargable, re-usable AA batteries, and a controller that doesn't die with its internal batteries life-cycle.
Don't let these muppets trick you with ESG score nonsense that is just trying to rationalize cost-cutting and making CHEAPER controllers. This will be Microsoft's cheapest Gamepad yet. The trend has beeen moving towards controllers that barely last a year before they break down, or get analogue drift. Mean--while, my original Xbox 360 wired controller for PC still works, I STILL use it for my PC gaming, and its lasted over 3 years worth of my PC builds.
You know you can just charge the controller once the battery dies out? Most people aren't replacing re-chargeable AA batteries, as that defeats the purpose.
@@georgekomath8978 wha? Are you even aware of what you're saying?
They could implement disk conversion via code; every physical game will be link with a code that will allow you to download the game while invalidating the actual disk.
So the my question is should I buy a Series X this year or wait until 2024 for the updated system?
Wait because next year is in 2 months
It feels so bad for Xbox but at the same time it’s so good, I’m definitely getting that new Series X model
What u mean u feel bad for them ??
@@extremedee7320This leak shouldn’t have happened
I'll never understand how anyone will have sympathy for a multi billion dollar corporation.@@extremedee7320
I guess people love to get bent over and forced into things
If you don’t have the normal disc drive Series X, I would recommend you buy THAT
No disc drive no buy for me
