I never bothered with the latest Xbox series. I've got a Xbox One X and its a great console but as soon as they started removing the optical drive and relied on digital purchases I lost all interest to be honest. I no longer subscribe to Xbox Live and when I did it was only for short periods typically in the past. PC gaming is far, far superior and better value. You don't have to have a state of the art PC to run a huge amount of games in fact I typically prefer older PC games to newer ones. I'd rather mod Skyrim or Fallout 4 than play a new PC game typically. I should also point out my Playstation is a Playstation 4 Pro and again likely my last Playstation however here I think there is a chance I may get a standard Playstation 5 when they go dirt cheap just to try out a few games. I've never owned a Nintendo Switch but overall do seem to spend a lot of time gaming, be it older consoles, pc games or android games. I've recently been enjoying playing some emulated Gamecube games.

If someone gave me a Xbox Series X or S I would try it out for sure but I would likely be selling it within 2 months and if it didn't have a optical drive probably immediately thinking about it.
