Xbox Series X

Sleek console, massive power, gamepass bargains, lush new controller!Just a few things at the tip of the iceberg that personally for me, make this Xbox’s best console.For comparison I do own a PlayStation 5, though I’ve always been ‘team green’ I opted for the PS5 this gen to try all the exclusives and haptic controller.Suffice to say I was exceptionally pleased with the PS5 and games like Ghosts of Tshushima and GoW.But…it wasn’t home.I truly believe the people who will appreciate the smaller details are those upgrading from an Xbox one/s/x - that isn’t to say those new to Xbox won’t love this console though!The first thing that immediately struck me was how nice the new controller feels! The buttons more responsive with a tactile click, textured grips and triggers and of course a beautiful share button in the middle - something I’ve always loved on Xbox is the ease of sharing a great clip or screenshot.The console just wow. A lush matte black mini tower with the green accent at the top, the thing oozes quality and power.I booted it up, a seamless set up experience via my phone whilst the console updated its firmware in the background.Profile on, Horizon 5 downloaded.Holy smokes it’s fast! Within minutes I’m cruising down the free way.In mere seconds I can resume my game of Halo Infinite or Shredders Revenge.This console feels exceptionally next gen just through quick play and load times - something even the PS5 isn’t as seamless at in my opinion.Games have never looked more crisp and with a huge catalogue of games to enjoy I’m blown away.Granted you get the most from Xbox if like me you have three generations of previous consoles games worth to play!But that’s not all!Introduce - Game Pass Ultimate.This is the bargain bucket of bargain buckets, a plethora of games to download and try, all available as and when you fancy a go.The cherry on top with game pass is generally, it makes you try games you’d never normally throw the money down on, so you end up finding some absolute gems!I opted for ultimate but you can of course opt for just game pass which is ridiculously cheap for what’s on offer.All in all this is - as of now - my new love. Previously it was my one x. But this console is just utterly remarkable and whilst I know a lot of potential buyers have concerns due to lack of ‘exclusives’ there’s plenty in the pipeline and tons to play whilst you wait!Edit:Update 22/08/2022Had some time to really dig in with this beauty.I’ve attached an external 2TB HDD for all my Xbox/360/one games.Console still blows me away, controller is perfect especially with some KontrolFreeks (personal extra).Valhalla and Breakpoint both look and play AMAZING on this thing.All the upgrades to older gen titles like New Vegas etc really compound this into a spend that I am utterly satisfied with.Even started making use of Xbox cloud gaming since it’s included with ultimate!

I'm absolutely loving my Xbox Series X Console, but I do want to warn others about one thing: it's BIG.I was expecting a slightly larger size compared to the previous Xbox consoles, but this thing is MASSIVE! It's actually so big that it won't even fit under most TV units - mine wouldn't even come close. In fact, it's currently sitting on the floor next to my TV unit, taking up a whole chunk of space.That being said, I think the size is actually kind of necessary for all the advanced tech and features they've packed into this console. And let me tell you, it's worth it. The performance is lightning-fast, the graphics are stunning, and the controller is comfortable to hold.I've been playing games non-stop since I got it, and I'm loving every minute of it. From Halo to Forza Horizon 5, everything looks and plays like a dream. And with the new Xbox app on my phone, I can easily share game clips and photos with friends.One thing to note: if you're planning on putting this console under your TV, forget about it. Just be prepared for the fact that it'll take up some extra space in your room. In my case, it's now a permanent resident on the floor next to my TV unit.Overall, I'm so happy with my Xbox Series X Console that I'd recommend it to anyone who's a serious gamer. Just be aware of the size factor, and plan accordingly!**Product Details:*** Xbox Series X Console* Massive storage capacity (1TB, with expandable storage options)* Super-fast performance (up to 12 TFLOPS)* Stunning graphics (support for up to 8K resolution)* Comfortable controller design**Pros:*** Lightning-fast performance* Stunning graphics* Comfortable controller design* Massive storage capacity (with expandable options)**Cons:*** BIG size - won't fit under most TV units and takes up some floor spaceOverall, I'm extremely happy with my Xbox Series X Console.
