Anybody able to snag one?

Currently I haven't.. planning to get the PS5.. but the Xbox Series X looks tempting. Multi-plat games will probably always look better on that console.. yet PlayStation has so many good exclusives. Might just buy both.. but eh.

Reminds me of this

Yeah Microsoft has a horrible naming system. I heard they discontinued the Xbox One X consoles early because too many people were getting confused.

I will say though.. I like the design of the Xbox Series X way above the PS5. The PS5 is one ugly console in my opinion.

I have one son who is an Xbox guy (waiting to get the new one), and the other is a PS guy (because of the Spider-Man game). He’s more patient for the PS5. They have jobs and money, so they buy their own. But my 8 year old is excited for the first son, because he was told he’ll get the Xbox One S when Josh gets his new one.

That's okay. It's so darn big it won't fit in my entertainment center, so it's going to have to go behind my TV where I can't see it anyways. And, no, I haven't gotten it yet... (grumble)

I got lucky and snagged a Series X on launch day. It's amazing. Load times for current games are down by almost 90% on most things. I had load times on Monster Hunter World for some quests go from 1-2 minutes down to < 10 seconds. Elite Dangerous runs at full 60 fps now and is beautiful. I can only imagine what they're going to be able to do with the power and new SSD.

I finally managed to get a PS5. So happy about this. Although to be honest.. there isn't much PS5 games I'm excited to play.. still some of the PS4 next gen upgrades look interesting.
