I've had one long enough that I'm on my second controller for it. I enjoy it and am very happy with the purchase. But...

It has pretty good backward compatibility (all Xbox and some 360 games run at 4K). It's more powerful than the PlayStation 5. Game Pass can be a good value if you don't already have most of the games it has that you care about. You can play all 5 Forza Horizon games on it. The controller feels better than the PS5's controller. The controller uses AA batteries and not a non-removable lithium ion battery.

I really like mine. Plays all of my games with no issues, and even makes some run better thanks to all the extra power on tap.

The AA battery thing is a bit dated but the aftermarket has more than addressed this with battery packs and charging stations.

I would caution you to check the Backwards Compatibility list for 360 games before you purchase if you only intend to play one or two games, or are really looking forward to playing a particular game.

A lot of 360 games are backwards compatible, but not all.

You don't want to get your hopes up and then be disappointed.

It's still a solid console otherwise though imo

D. I'd be a bit more leaning towards a PS5 if I was going to get one, but at the moment there's nothing overly appealing on this gen that I can't get on PC, and since I just got an Ayaneo, I'm in no rush to get any more gaming systems.

Nah. Do not have any of the new xboxs yet. Just the PS5, switch, PC and steam deck covering all my gaming needs for now.

When I bought my gears of war 4 special edition xbox one s back when gears 4 first released I ended up not caring for gears 4 nowhere near as much as I did part 3 (same for gears 5 to be honest). (The lootboxes, changes to how horde works and just how bleh the weapons are for the pvp since a lot of the gears 3 weapons were removed. *Story line reasons...no horde around in gears 4's timeline so blahblahblah. Imo pvp should always ignore the story timeline since you can already play as long dead characters like various carmines and dom so fuck it and keep around those old gears 3 weapons too. Gears 3 was just amazing with all the characters+weapon skins you got without needing to rely on lootboxes...I prefer the old-school DLC model of buying a DLC pack and just getting everything that comes with it. Also the simple but fun as hell gears of war 3 horde. Beast mode was also a nice distraction. Just the best gears game by far still). Also one of the games I actually really freaking wanted badly scalebound got shit-canned, and cuphead got ported to everything else a bit later. I did play state of decay 2 for a bit but I ended up playing both this and gears tactics on my PC.

All in all, I only played my xbox one s for no more than like, pshh, 250ish hours total if that. Mostly just used it as my cable box since my household had dish TV at the time and the xbox one had a HDMI in port to use for stuff like that.

Basically I am waiting to see what games pop up that I can only play on the xbox console-wise before I invest in a newer xbox (no doubt the X if/when I am finally ready to get one. If I am getting a new console then I am getting the model with the most features) and hope said games don't get cancelled like scalebound and the one fable online game they were working on did. Either that, or gears of war 6 brings back that gears of war 3 awesomeness without having to rely on junk like lootboxes or god forbid battle passes.

Just imagine all the previous xbox consoles fused into one. Runs all previous games in auto HDR and dolby vision in addition to better framerates. Great console only lacking exclusives to push the system.

yeah I got an S for emulation, backwards compatibility, and it is such a small portable system. You could easily fit it in your suitcase and travel with it. It is a great system for the size and price.

C. Great console. Game Pass is a great value if you're new (or new-ish) to gaming, or simply haven't played many of the games on there.

Easily my most played between my Series X, PS5 and Switch.
