I have the og current gen so it's a massive upgrade for me.
There's enough people interested for the X to be selling out though. Agree there's not much point in buying the S for a while, unless it's for a kid that doesn't have current gen.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran hold a long overdue conversation about United's awful league form with 1 win in 7. They discuss a disappointing draw at Bournemouth, a not so disappointing draw against Liverpool and a crushing defeat at Chelsea - Is time nearly over for Erik Ten Hag?
Then in a special second half of the pod, Nik welcomes Natalie ( https://twitter.com/natalie_17) to discuss the fortunes of Manchester United Women as they booked a place in the FA Cup Final after a historic first ever win vs. Chelsea.

@esmufc07 is still bitter because MS have taken his elder scrolls away from him.
This game pass thing - once you have a game downloaded from it does it get removed from your system if it leaves game pass?
No, they give you notice when it’s leaving and the option of buying it with a discount.
Series X was back up on Amazon and gone. Surprised you didn’t mention that @esmufc07.
OK cool.
Considering getting it for when the S gets delivered, as the ultimate option includes Gold multiplayer. So it is really only an extra 3-4 pound a month for the library.
You have to assume a lot of the main title games like Gears and Halo will stay as well.
To be fair I played Morrowind on PC (Still my favourite), Oblivion on 360 (Got to 150 hours of gameplay before RROD) and Skyrim I played on PS3 though I don't think I ever finished it. So TES isn't a 'playstation' game in my eyes if you know what I mean.
Gears and Halo won't leave it - none of the first party stuff will.
Yeah I guess it's worth it for og Xbox One owners, but I think if you had a One X you'd be fine for another year.
I have a One S at the minute - so I'm looking forward to 4K (X) and a snappier system. hopefully Wasteland 3 won't be so slow either!
Yeah probs. Although my mate has a One X and was straight on the Series X preorder. It's fun to get hyped up for something new with shinier graphics.
3 hours after pre-orders opened, Microsoft's next gen console Xbox Series S still available to order from many retailers.
You're the gaming equivelant of an obsessed Liverpool fan
Some people may be working, just keeping them informed.
Odd that the Xbox crowd are upset about me updating the status of pre orders. We did this in the PS5 thread with no issues.
You are very odd
You watch Mrs Browns Boys
wanted to get that monthly subscription thing but seems to be sold out for the s and x on game and the other retailer
Should be banned from this thread for his constant trolling.
I don't think smyths have actually got their pre orders live yet. Game did and it crashed, sounds like there will be more once they get working again too maybe.
Both sites are dead at the moment.

Avowed, Elder Scrolls, Fable and Fallout is a pretty decent roster of RPGs! Forgot KOTOR was an Xbox exclusive. That game was the biz.
Step son pre ordered a series S, I’m surprised they’re still available tbh I thought the series S would be the one flying off the shelves.
I thought you guys were friends now.
It was a joke. Just like he’s been jokingly trying to get me banned from other threads the little apex rascal @esmufc07.
I guess the X is more for the hardcore crowd isn't it (so the hardcore will want it early) whereas the S appeals more to the casual audience - who are in no rush etc.
Some clown listed all his order details and number on eBay

Cheers @Damien. Never thought I'd see a next gen console still available nearly 6 hours after pre-ordering started, but then these are crazy times we are living in.
On Very I got my PS5 at 9am and my mate got his at like 4pm. Figure
Bit odd you're bringing PS into it
Smyth Toys and Game still down from the All Access stuff.
I must admit I'm really surprised MS didn't offer that direct or via more retailers since Kaplan are facilitating it.They'd have absolutely cleaned up. I've got loads of mates who can easily afford to pay downright wanting to get All Access.
Maybe it's to keep Game happy? Dunno.

Just saying I agree with you it's surprising, but seems there is form for it.Bit odd you're bringing PS into it
Xbox Series SSD Expansion Card price uploaded and removed by Smyths at £159. Probably the real price but could have been a mistake.
Not sure I understand buying the all access bundle? How much cheaper does it work out rather than buying the console and game pass seperately?
It's like £30 cheaper based on RRP, though if you bought through deals you'd probably get it cheaper shopping around. That isn't the point though - it's that it offers interest free, 2 year payment option. An affordable plan bundling in the expensive device, similar to a phone contract.
People aren't doing it to save money but to make more affordable payments and have it all in one convenient bundle.
Think you save about £20/£30, but don't think the appeal is the saving, more the ability to spread the payments out interest free
As frustrating as this is as a PS fan I’d actually be happy if I can pick up an Xbox in say 3-4 years time and have a back catalogue of RPGs to play. Those games are my bread and butter.
