The system hasn't even been released yet and you're flexing the PS5's reliability and efficiency... GTFO, kid.


I was an Xbox fan for Halo. The OG XBOX was great. I liked that you could play your own HDD music in the background on any game. I stood in line for the 360 and went through 5 of them due to the red ring of death. Ended up spending money to repair it. Their hardware is shite, period. Their controllers all break within 6 months and start to drift. I've had Ps4 controllers for 3 years now and they are still good as new.
I went against my better judgement and bought an Xbox One due to the MCC Collection coming out and they totally botched the launch. I sold it. Sure it is fixed now but it happened way too late. Halo was all the Xbox had going for it and since they can't do that right anymore. The system is useless. Especially if you have a PC. Every game released on Xbox systems going forward will be on the PC. So yes, if you have a PC you don't ever need an XBOX. So that is why PS5 is recommended.

Based on pure reputation I would say the PS5 has better hardware. They make quality hardware. Also after seeing both teardowns of the new consoles, it is obvious that the PS5 has a better design. The XBOX S X 45 looks like its gonna be a hotbox. Poor cooling solution, we'll see how long these systems last. A redesign will probably be needed.

Think about it, the 360 was a major launch in graphics at the time and it was compared to some of the best PCs graphic wise. This generation is the same type of graphical launch in graphics as it is pretty close to high end graphics now minus the new 3000s from Nvidia. Based on the past, Microsoft will repeat its failures with the 360 this generation due to all that power and still making it affordable. They cut corners somewhere for sure. You can bump this when reports of Xboxs failing due to the faulty hardware.

I would be more apt to be leery if Microsoft didnt cover the cost for all 5 of my replacement/repair 360 units and issued a recall that cost them a billion dollars. It sucked but in the end they fixed the problem and took the hit.

What if you dont have a PC and have kids that play too? Would you think an Xbox with Gamepass might be a good choice for them? Certainly a more budget friendly for some.
