Agent23 Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 52 minutes ago, Machine said: The new s is 299.99. It would be astronomically stupid for someone to buy the one s at 300. Guess the price drop wouldn't go into effect until like November Its supply and demand brah. Assuming the customer base is people with ZERO XBoxes (or a broken XBox), nobody that has a Series S (aka, preordered ) is going to buy One S. If they don't have a pre-order tho, their options are to pay like $700 on eBay for a marked up Series S/X, or to buy the past gen that will allow them to play all their games and still online game/cross-platform with their Fboy friends. Doesn't matter what the new consoles MSRP for if people can't get their hands on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might make the switch to PS5. The Xbox exclusive releases just really haven't kept pace recently it seems like. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agent23 Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 Ugh. Xbox. Why? Why do your fanboys act like your controller is great? Visiting fam and staying at my sisters. Her fiancée has an Xbox one. Her and I played crash N’sane trilogy as she’s been stuck on a level and wanted to see if I could beat it. We swapped turns back and forth every few tries. Maybe 90 mins total between the two of us. The left stick, which you use 100% of the times due to directional control... oh my god my thumb is so raw from the awful design of those things with that hard outer rim and the sunken center. That PS4 nub is leaps and bounds better and more comfortable on the pad of the thumb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaEagles4Life Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 Looks like the new Xbox and some of these new AV receivers that use HDMI 2.1 are having connection issues. The new released Denon and Yahama are the main culprits. Hopefully those companies release a patch. I wanted to get the new Yahama Rx6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
