In this review, I will be taking a look at the Xbox Series S and discussing how it holds up after 3 years of use. Unlike the Xbox Series X, the Xbox Series S provides an amazing experience for a pretty cheap price. So here it is, the Xbox Series S after 3 years of use.

Nice :) Also, Jesus will fulfill you more than anything in this world, I speak from experience (from when i did Romans 10:9-13), he loves you and wants to be in a meaningful (not romantic) relationship with you. :) “that if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” ‭‭Romans‬ ‭10‬:‭9‬-‭13‬ ‭KJV‬‬ “and saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.” ‭‭Mark‬ ‭1‬:‭15‬ ‭KJV‬‬ If you want proof that Jesus and the Bible are true look a documentary called “Ron Wyatt discoveries 2022” on KZfaq and a KZfaq channel called Expedition Bible. They both examine archeological sites and discoveries that prove the Bible, and even reference secular sources. (Just don’t convert to 7th day Adventism after watching the documentary) And lastly if you don’t know the gospel and want to be saved search up “abc’s of Salvation Teenmissions” on Google and it should be the first or second result. When you click on it read the whole thing, and do what it says and have faith in Jesus while you are doing it, do not doubt, and if it is hard for you to do what it says, ask Jesus to help you, have faith that he will, and *he will.* God Bless :)

I have a Series X but I think the power supply or power cable socket broke. I didn’t want it to be repaired by Microsoft since it’ll be awhile till it’s fixed, and it costs as much as a Series S for repairs. But my Birthday just so happens to be in one month from now. And because my dad and I share a console in the living room, I wanted to have the next gen experience in my bedroom and not have to share the nicer console, plus my dad is pretty much okay with playing Battlefield on Xbox One. So instead I was going to replace it with a Carbon Black Series S. That way it’d fit in my room like a glove, the resolution would almost match my Bedroom TV (1080p), only thing i’d lose is the disc drive, but that’s why I have the Xbox One. Most of my old games on disc or discontinued games can be played on Xbox One. I also was planning on getting a Nintendo Switch this Christmas, and the only place it could fit in my Bedroom is right in the only spot the Series X could fit in. So this way, my bedroom setup would have the Wii and Xbox Series S underneath my TV, and to the left of it would be my Switch. This way everything fits so much better. It’s also easier to take the Series S with me (which I probably won’t do, but it’d be nice to have) on trips. Also, imo the Black Series S looks really sweet.

But i want at least 60 FPS on a game i have a 1080p tv so should not be to hard but look at the crew motorfest so far i know that Will play on 30 FPS and thats a real bummer! And its like 250 euro's more expensive so if your a Child and need to have all the money from bday money or so the series s is super good for the price! But if your a little bit older and have a income i think the 250 euro's more are worht the money for a series x so thats my opinion

Which by the way, came past console and PS plus extra are at the same price point I believe I don’t know what the annual ball grade is for each if they’re even is one for game pass I know there is for extra I just don’t know what it is I haven’t looked But the difference says the catalog you get access to is about five times the size on PlayStation and it’s all modern games PS4 and PS five games there’s no older games in there. Those are all relegated to streaming with gas plus premium with Xbox game pass console. The catalog is going to include all kinds of gamesand there’s a lot less of them in the end plus is a far better deal. The only thing you really lose out on is free I mean first party titles available on day one for free but you’ll get to try for free before you buy them so you can try them out and see if you like them and then watch for sale he actually almost always see a sale anyway except right when the game comes out because this plus members get anywhere from 15 to 70% Discount.

You don’t need ultimate to play with your friends Xbox live has been included XX live gold. The equivalent of gold is an Xbox core. I mean Xbox live gold has been discontinued, but the functions features of it are included in core, so any version of game pass from core up, gives you multiplayer Ability you don’t need ultimate to play games with your friends. The only reason you need ultimate is if you want to access your game pass from PC android iOS from your TV whatever if you’re not doing any of that then buy game pass console or game pass core to be fair I would start out with game pass core Upgrade if you feel like there are games you wanna play from the game pass library I think core is up to like between 30 to 40 free games similar to PS plus games you know the game pass live gold or the Xbox live gold games they’re up to like 30 to 40 games now that you can play free with game pass core

It will not be on game pass core and those are only first titles, which, as of now is only Starfield, that’s literally the only benefit you seen from that since they made those changes and it’s available on game pass console and ultimate again you don’t need ultimate unless you wanna play your games on somewhere other than the console and you know on the consul and other places then you need ultimate if you’re only gonna play them on the console, you need game pass console which is like $11 a month

Honestly, most people don’t have 4K TVs anyway, I think last time I checked it was like 40% of the population in the United States had upgraded so the graphics quality really doesn’t matter the real deal. Here is the performance of the machine itself will be less it has a smaller storage and if you bought it to be your primary consul you’re gonna quickly be dissatisfied with the 500 GB space you’re going to want to upgrade it and the upgrade is gonna cost you more than it would’ve costed just to buy an X in the first place, that’s why the model with the one terabyte drive for 349 has been released if you’re going to buy a series ass hold out for that model don’t buy the OG series ass by the second edition at least that you’re starting out with one terabyte storage everything else is the same oh it’s not that ugly white color that they used on the PlayStation five and the series SOG that is the ugliest stupidest choice Ever in a gaming console Sony did it on purpose. I guarantee they did. They didn’t know everybody hate the color but they buy it anyway and then they buy the panels. They had the colored panels available immediately but you don’t get to choose the color your box when you buy itcome gaming industry, monetization create a problem sell a solution

There’s a one year subscription for 60 bucks for game pass core game pass core is Microsoft attempt to replicate PS plus essentials it offers exactly the same features and functions i.e. multiplayer gaming for free, free games every month with a free game catalog that can grow at the same price point that Sony was at just a few months ago now the price point for that equivalent in Sony went up to like 74 bucks but I just renewed mine it expired the next day I renewed it for $63 but game pass annual subscription is 60 bucks so with tax you know it’s going to be a little over $60but it does not give you access to the catalog.

You know the features the same on every platform the developers just can’t do it on the series as because it is in factsimply a lesser hardware platform not capable of running everything but it doesn’t matter whether you do game pass on an ax or an ass game pass is what it is the game available or what they are

Excuse me, but the series S doesn’t have a gaming catalog Xbox has a game in catalog and you have to buy game pass access it. Siri doesn’t itself have a gaming catalog. In fact, worst part is because it’s so much different certain features, and some games may not exist on the ass Like the split screen feature takes a lot of processing power some game developers have been allowed not to incorporate that into the series version of the game unlike PlayStation five hardware which is all the same whether it’s the cheaper one or the expensive one it’s all the same hardware just minus the disk, the series S that you’re showing is minus Storage space it’s half the size 1st and foremost it’s processing power is less it’s graphical processing power is less I mean it’s all around lesser machine and it has limitations buying an Xbox to be your primary consul. Don’t buy the ass I mean if you’re going to buy an ass cause you want to save money, at least hold out and get the new series ass that has a one terabyte drive because you’re going to immediately need to upgrade that 500 GB drive And you might as well.
