![]() ![]() I think everyone on all sides of these so-called console wars can agree on one thing: the PS5 had stronger launch titles than Xbox Series X/S, but the tide is starting to change. I get that Microsoft may be tactically twisting your arm into getting the more expensive machine, but that imbalance needs to be addressed. To put it into context, if you bought a Series S ($299) and a 1TB memory card ($219), that ends up being $18 more than just buying a Series X. For this new generation, 512GB is simply not enough and the use of proprietary storage expansion cards drives the cost up drastically for extra room. ![]() One problem I’ve ran into constantly this year is a lack of space. But, for typical gameplay without stopping to look at wall textures, this is good enough. Sure, there are some variable resolution changes (Forza Horizon 5 runs at 1440p at 60 frames per second on the Series X, compared to 1080p 60 fps on the Series S), and you can notice some slight visual downgrades upon closer inspection. In real-world use, however, that difference is not as drastic as the numbers suggest. Compared to the 12 teraflops of the Series X, that sounds paltry, even to those who had no idea what a teraflop was until they bought the console (me). It means you can turn your console into a low-cost gaming PC.Īs for what you’ll find under the hood and how it performs, the custom AMD 7nm CPU and RDNA 2 GPU with 10GB GDDR6 video memory produces 4 teraflops of visual power. ![]() Plugging in my USB keyboard and mouse has been a breath of fresh air across games like Halo Infinite and Gears Tactics that do work with controllers, but can feel a little clunky. A quick shout-out to one of my favourite elements of the Xbox Series systems, which is the versatility of play. ![]()
