The positivity everywhere about Xbox Hardware and Services is amazing to see. They’ve have been doing great in these two categories anyway, but now they are killing it.
Software game just needs to step up for the trifecta. I hope there is something else they can show to get people excited, but due to the lack of insider gossip, I doubt it. The last thing we heard was Shinobi mentioning this games pass news.
Xbox Series S for 299 $ with that hardware is crazy! I still can’t believe it… But I think so, we need news from the Software side. We haven’t seen Series X gameplay yet
And Xbox will have Gears Tactics (launch day), MSFS and Halo Infinite all in 2021. Not to mention timed exclusives from Bloober, Bandai Namco and the guys behind Stalker 2.
The gap in the first year is nowhere near as big as people like to make out.
I am, X for me and the S for the wife and kiddos.
We’re gonna pick up 2 series X
Soo I did a thing… Is it cheating when I have my series x pre order in place?
How. When. Where.
The beans, spill them you must!!1!
Series X is a given but I think I wanna get an S to replace the One S in my daughters room
U wot m8?
Maybe at the Ubisoft Forward Event. Ubi subscription in Gamepass as well ?
Game Stop placeholder pre order 
(Germany)
Like I said 499 is my price I’m willing to pay. Above would be though for me. 
Probably could have done it much earlier tho.
In terms of exclusives that really show off the power…yes, Xbox One launch was better. We had Ryse which was a superb looking game but the game itself wasn’t amazing or anything, not for me. Forza was great to have at launch and was a looker too. But that’s about it. It wasn’t a stellar launch lineup in any way. Do i wish MS would’ve had a game like Ryse to show off the visuals (and maybe actually a great playing game too) of course, but it is what it is.
Yes Sony has Spidey as launch game, although i find it extremely odd that we haven’t see any gameplay yet and a launch window game, Ratchet we’ve seen gameplay of twice now. It’s true, Sony has timed exclusivtiy deals for two (imo not so great looking)Bethesda published games and according to some insiders some very other big timed exclusives.I see what you mean with that Xbox only has indie or smaller timed exclusives but at the same time they DO have timed exclusivity on Stalker 2. I doubt that falls under indie?
More details soon.
Boom! I’m onboard.
Guys, sorry for my ignorance, but would XSS be able to run XoX version of games with back-compat? I’m asking that, because XSS has less ram that XoX.
Probably not due to the memory situation. It will run the games in Xbox One S mode most likely.

This sentence triggers me: “…and more big things to come, it’s exciting times”
I know we just got a lot of info, but I’m greedy and I want more👀
There goes my plan to replace my XoX with XSS =( . Well maybe those back-compat wizards somehow managed to find a solution for that.
yeah it’s unfortunate they don’t have AAA game on launch but it’s not a big problem
the big problem is 2021
There will be big gap between MFS 2020 and Halo Infinite.
also While MFS 2020 is great game it’s still in niche genre
easy solution to this by adding big games to game pass every two months or Moneyhat AAA Games
