I notice more and more games skipping the Xbox One. Is it finally time to upgrade? (planning on keeping the series X and one X both hooked up)

A new version comes out this year supposedly. Digital only with better power consumption iirc

So the current model may get discounted

iirc, the Series X often goes on sale, so if you have any way of tracking that kind of stuff, I recommend doing so.

Unless you have some BC Xbox Classic / 360 games to play, Id say only if you find one for cheap. Otherwise get a pc

obviously you should get a pc for $350, the price that a series x is frequently available for, to run AAA games, which a series x and also a $350 pc can TOTALLY do.

Friends,

I got one, played starfield on it. for like 500 hours.

brought it to my daughters. it sat there for like 5 weeks, noone played, it

Brought it back.. it sat here for 3 weeks. not even hooked up.

I Played persona 3.. I Play like a dragon, on my playstation.

I finally hooked it up. and played Oblivion... But I also have a
360 and a one... so I really did not need to use it.

I might be happy to trade you for a playstation 5.. I will
even THROW in starfield...and 20 bucks.

So yeah, obviously buy a PC as others have said for the same price. Just to have to upgrade it next year, and the year after that. Then, the next graphics card comes out, but you need new cooling fans to compensate for the GPU, GAHHH

Yes, you are absolutely correct. Glad we're on the same page.

That consolite drivel you have hidden behind spoiler tags is obviously not to be heeded and is perpetuated by people who clearly have no idea what they're talking about.

Dont PC gamers have to invest a lot at the startup and upgrade components every year?

Not really. That's a consolite myth. You can upgrade every year. Doesn't mean you have to.

Startup costs maybe, you can get something on par with the Series X/PS5 for under 1k these days since theres always sales on either individual components or prebuilts.

But you dont need to upgrade them unless youre dead set on having the absolute peak performance at all times. I got my PC as a prebuilt in 2020 for $1200. The only thing Ive done since then is upgrade from 16 to 32GB RAM. It still runs everything I throw at it at at least 60fps on high settings though I try to aim for 100+ on a 1080p144hz monitor.

No, not even close. Upfront costs are a bit higher than console, but if you buy something decent, it'll last you close to how long a console will. And then when it doesn't quite cut it anymore, you only have to replace some parts of it, not the whole thing. Also, a gaming PC is still a PC, so if you want/need a PC for other tasks, the cost of a gaming PC will be covering both the general PC and the console.
