I always give Xbox credit, after the disaster that was that big giant brick controller they had for the first Xbox they stepped their controller game up. While the haptic feedback and built in microphone on the PS5 controller are great features, the Xbox controller just feels better in your hands. As far as comfort and ergonomics this controller is fantastic. The Series X is quiet as hell too, I have yet to hear it get loud. The PS5 is quiet for the most part as well but I've heard it get a little loud occasionally, granted this is still day 2 so that part may change.

I'm liking the purchase so far, I was waiting on Xbox until Avowed and Starfield(even though it looked kinda mid I'm gonna give Bethesda a chance) came out, but I'm glad I got it now. Haven't played Halo Infinite yet, gonna give that Sea of Thieves game I've heard so much about a try... after I play Mechwarrior 5. I like Gamepass, long as Microsoft follows through on their promise of bringing good games to it I'll stay a subscriber.

The discord beta rolled around for insiders and it’s nice, a lil cumbersome to setup but works very well…

One thing I was worried about and pleased to be proven wrong is that using discord doesn’t interfere with Spotify being played in the background, both simultaneously work

It's cool, but having to choose between Discord and a Party kind negates the purpose.

I’ll prolly stick to Xbox parties over discord when just on Xbox but this really comes in handy when playing with some of my ps5 and pc only friends on call of duty and other cross platform games cause in game chat is usually terrible

Gonna get my son a series S for his 6th bday. Hopefully thay gamepass shared accout comes out soon.

Tired of him hogging my series X to play Roblox lol
You can share gamepass now. You would just have to set up his console as the “home” console.

And don’t listen to these dudes. Series S is the perfect console for a little kid.
