Just got a Series X and wow! Review

I’ve had a ps5 for a while and also a Xbox one X and too bad this isn’t selling better. Hardware is so so nice

Big fan of the hardware, OS and environment. Marketing has been a dud with Xbox…

My favourite part of the environment is the "play anywhere" feature plus cloud saves. I love that I can start a game on the xbox and then continue the game on my PC. Was also handy the other way around when I originally bought the series X and I just loaded up all the game pass games I was already playing on the PC.

Not only that, but I grabbed a Backbone for $100 and with remote play it essentially turns your Series X into a handheld console. Quick resume works the same way, and you can even play disc games.

Being able to play games like Balatro on the couch while I hang out with my wife in the evenings has been wonderful.

Yeah you don’t even need your Series X for remote(cloud) gaming anymore
