Good read. I am liking the Xbox Series X so far. I can see where Microsoft wants to go with this console. I am one of the lucky few that has a Series X and a PS5.

HOW!? I can't find either in any store. The first one I find I am going to buy it. I don't care which one.

I know your pain. I pre-ordered my PS5 at the start of September in Gamestop and I still haven't gotten one. thankfully the series x came through

When Sony had there press conference a few months ago I knew that preorders were going to begin so I hung around GameStop. Just as I was getting ready to leave the PS5 preorders went live where I was the first to get one. For the Series X, I knew trying to get one online was foung to be trouble so I camped out at GameStop at 4:45 am and was the first in line to get that preorder. I am fortunate to have had every console released in North America on launch day dating back to the Sega Genisis, Turbgrafx, and SNES era.

I think in the next 18 - 24 months we'll start to see the fruits of all those aqquisitions

It's 1.5-2 years but it's still a long time.

More underrated features than games then....

[PrimeVinister]

To be fair, the article does mention the lack of games in the very first paragraph.

But you are still right, none of the features mean all that much without without worthwhile fresh and exclusive content.

The cloud feature is nice but not for "on the go". If you are close to your router with 5gHz Connection games are playable. Even 2.4 gHz connection with full bars is not enough to play without lag. Unless you have an unlimited data plan and access to 5g LTE you will not have much fun playing "on the go".
Its nice for playing on the couch with the phone mounted to the controller.
