Did you manage to get a PlayStation 5 and/or Xbox Series X yet?

I was in a gamestop the other day selling my switch+games and the employee tried selling me on a PS5. I scoffed at him and proudly pointed to my Xbox shirt, it was such an alpha move it shook him to his very core and he went silent. I proudly left that Gamestop with my chest out and $20 in-store credit from my trade in value.

But to answer your question, yes. I was able to secure a series X preorder at launch from amazon. The day it arrived I knew it was something special. The box was sleek, bold, and sexy but what truly amazed me was how the packaging was so premium it put my Gucci goods to shame and was oh so accessible and thoughtful making sure every gamer from any walk of life could enjoy the experience. But the magic didn't stop there.

I quickly booted it up, and damn MS really outdid themselves with the QoL features. Games automatically detect and download the next gen versions, but what about the saves? No worries, all the saves are in the cloud as always with xbox. It put me in the game in no time. Soon that Smart Delivery term starts looking less gimmicky and actually matter, this was the most seamless and enjoyable generational switch ever! The Gamepass library is ever growing and vast and fills all my deep crevasse of gaming needs and wants. Between GP and Xbox Rewards, I feel like Xbox is paying me to play games, the value is just killer and with Halo and Forza Horizon around the corner I feel like I'm in a constant state of euphoria.

Just to state it again, yes I bought a Series X and I wish I can shout it from the rooftops every single day.
