You can play cloud version on your og Xbox One... try it.

Ok rant was only a 13 min delay. My bad phil

All I can see in my head is Phil Spencer with his eyes all bugged out clutching his throat making a choking sound!

Lol

Yeah, with lower draw distance and under 1080p rez. Dude it's to be played on a small TV. I think the s is perfect for casuals. But again, the one x is just better. All in the comments there are saying the same. The one x is just a better and more powerful console.

So it's confirmed you didn't watch the video. I watched it so you don't have to:

You: "with lower draw distance" (pretending its a big deal)
DF: "Trees render slightly further on XB1X, although really hard to spot without a 3x zoom" (barely noticeable)

You: "under 1080p rez"
DF: "1080p is basically locked, with barely any sign of DRS"

"Dude it's to be played on a small TV."
Now you're just showing you have no idea how TV's work. You do realize resolution isn't tied directly to TV size, right? You can get a 50" 1080p TV or a 50" 4K TV...

Also, do you limit yourself purely to native 4K games? If so, you've barely got any games to play on any platform.

You: "Even DF hopes that 343 can boost the rez of the s version"
DF: "Sacrificing a more dynamic 1080p to hit 60fps is an absolutely great trade for this console"

Series S is also using Series X textures:
"But its an example of actual texture quality differing between the generations, one that may well be in favor of the Series S overall"

Lastly, I'll point out, you are not 100% of the market. Not everyone wants to, or can, spend $499 on a games console. If I were a kid today, I would be totally happy if my parents bought me a $299 console that could play Halo at 60fps.

Just because you are not the target audience for a console, doesn't mean it's a bad console.

My one x seems less powerful than my series s in all of the games I've played on both, so far.

Yeah, you should. The console with higher rez on the better TV. Because the image will look sharper then the way around. Even if you had a oled. But not only that. I don't wich model you got. But the settings should also be adjust. There are many you tubers that help you take the better image of the TV. I did that with my xh900 and it was big change. Many setting aren't on when you buy the tv

I would swap them for sure.

Unless you play more on the smaller tv.

I'd say that's totally up to your personal preference. A few things I would factor in if I were making the decision:

- The capabilities of both TV's (HDR, VRR, 120hz, Dolby Vision, etc.). XB1X cannot take advantage of a lot of premium TV features.
- No 120Hz on XB1X, if you like playing at high framerate (and your TV supports it).
- Not all XB1X games run at 4K or have a huge delta in res between XB1X and XSS
- XSS games typically exhibit higher level visuals than X1X games, so those will probably look better on your better TV & you probably want to play the best version of a game
- Not sure how complicated your media stand setup is / how much of a pain it is to change it again, but XB1X's days are numbered, we're going to start seeing less and less games come to last-gen. There will be games that you can only play on your XSS and you'll probably want to play them on your best TV.

If it were me, I think I'd actually keep the XSS on the primary TV - since it would let me play last gen and next gen games, whereas XB1X wouldn't. But I'm also not factoring in the fact you watch blu-ray movies on your Xbox, so your needs are slightly different from mine.

Another thought, and I'm not sure this is true but you have both so you'll know, but don't the Xbox's all use the same power cable etc? and both should be using ultra high speed HDMI 2.1 cables, so in theory you could just swap the box as needed with minimal disruption / no rewiring etc.

It's inevitable with the modern landscape. Even if some issues have been assuaged, new ones crop up all the time.

I'm willing to bet AI and the lack of regulation is causing substantial upset.

I'm not buying any games until another Immersive sim is made.
