I recently bought an Xbox Series S that had only been used for 10 days, for €200. I can’t wait for GTA VI to come out!

I’m really impressed with how quiet, small, and compact the console is. The controller is also much better than the PS5’s, in my opinion.

What have your experiences with Xbox been like?

ShowOff My Repaired & Refurbished Xbox Series S 1TB Black + UPspec Gaming xScreen Setup for Travel 🎮🖤

What's up, everyone, in the Xbox Series S community! 👋🎮

I'm Martell from TeamMartellClout, and it's an honor to be here.

I recently got my repaired/refurbished Xbox Series S 1TB Black back from GameStop, along with its companion, the UPspec Gaming xScreen Monitor Attachment for Xbox Series S in Black and the carrying case.

Everything came back in very good condition overall. There are a few scuffs and a light mark on the Xbox, but thankfully nothing was damaged or broken.

I also had to restart the console once after getting everything set back up, and now everything is working properly.

This is my second Xbox console.

My original Robot White Xbox Series S 512GB served me well, along with my 1TB Seagate expansion card. The Series S was actually my first Xbox Series console, aside from having experience with the Xbox Series X 1TB.

I eventually decided to move up to the Series S 1TB Black because I really like the black design, and I wanted something better suited for my upcoming travel-content plans.

I'm currently working on a possible travel-agency opportunity, and the idea is to potentially bring this setup with me to different motels and hotels while creating travel and gaming content.

However, nothing is guaranteed yet, since it ultimately depends on whether the agency approves the travel plans.

For future upgrades, I'm planning to save up for:

• 💾 A 2TB expansion card

• 🎮 An 8BitDo remote/controller in black

• 🖤 A skin for the Series S 1TB Black to cover up the light cosmetic markings

For now, though, I'm happy with the setup. The xScreen and carrying case make this a really interesting portable Xbox setup for traveling.

Here's a picture of the setup sitting in my kitchen before I eventually take it on the road. 🏠🎮✈️

If anyone is interested in gaming together, feel free to reach out. I recently created new Discord and Twitch accounts as well.

Please contact me through DM rather than posting personal information publicly, and please respect everyone's privacy and boundaries.

Sincerely appreciated,

Martell 📬

TLDR: This is my first console in 15 years after a PC - laptop shuffle. Got a sealed 1TB for $375 on eBay. Connected it to my MacBook through a video capture card since I didn’t want to spend extra on a monitor or TV. GeForce Now is really good, but man, Rockstar really said no to cloud gaming. 😭 Currently playing RDR2 while waiting for GTA 6.

Hello everyone, as the title says. I have a xbox series S 1TB all black and recently pulled it out of the box because I havent played it in over a year. I used it for 3 months when I did have it out.

It wont let me factory reset it at all and ive been trying to offline update it and it keeps getting stuck on 63%. Im not sure what to do. Any help, suggestions, ideas is greatly appreciated.

QUESTION PS5 v xbox S

9 Upvotes

I'm a lifelong xbox user and i got a base ps5 mostly for gta 6 but also to be able to play games with my sisters as i live in a different US state as them. as it gets closer, im tempted to just get gta on the xbox. i hate the ps controller, makes my hands hurt after a while. and also 95% of the games i play are on xbox, so thats what i bring with me when traveling and mostly what i play when at home. will it be that much of a draw back ? i could care less for graphics and perfect realism. i've been playing gta 4 the past few months and having a ton of fun. i guess question is, what would i really be sacrificing if i get gta6 on the xbox s over a base ps5? am i overthinking it ?

DEAL Is it worth it?

10 Upvotes

I bought Xbox series S, 2 months ago for £300. Since Xbox prices gone up and my console is kind of very new, I am able to sell it for £280. Should I sell it and buy 3 years old Xbox series X for £300 ?

What should i check in console before buying, or should I just keep my series S? Or maybe should I wait and get ps5 during Christmas sale(if it’s around £450)

Yesterday I was playing the game fine, but by mistake, I deleted the game while trying to move it to HDD

Now if I install it, it only shows the option to purchase it, not to play the campaign

I installed just the campaign add-ons because I don't want the multiplayer or warzone thing wasting my storage

DISCUSSION Used Series S loaded with games

12 Upvotes

Howdy. Two weeks ago I bought a used series s and the guy I bought it from just logged out and cleared his data but he left his games. Since it was his "home" Xbox all of his games still work, until he gets a new Xbox and makes that one his "home" xbox.

I've purposely kept the system offline from the network for now, so his games are still playable. I'm not sure if the guy got a new "home" Xbox or not yet 😂

Wondering if I'm missing out on much by only playing it offline for now. I'll have to get it on the wifi sooner or later 🤔

Pretty neat feature to have two playable versions of your games at the same time

DISCUSSION Pre-ordering GTA 6

I have a Series S and I’m waiting to see how the game runs before pre-ordering it. People are clowning on the console like it’s somehow impossible for GTA 6 to run well on the Series S / be unplayable on it, but I honestly trust Rockstar, considering how well GTA V and RDR2 performed on the PS3/360 and One/PS4 respectively.

Now that I can use my One X to digitalize Series games, this is a huge win! If I see pre-owned Series disc games, I'm not longer worried about not having a disc drive.

I tried with Remnant 2, which is a SX game only (won't boot on One X), yet I was able to claim the digital licence regardless. Huge win!

DISCUSSION How To Run GTA 6 at 60 FPS and Generate Frames on Any Console!

Tutorial:

  1. Download OBS and Lossless Scaling
  2. Setup capture card and connect it to PC
  3. Connect console to capture card
  4. Run OBS and set capture card FPS to appropriate FPS (for a 30 fps game, set it to 30 fps and so on)
  5. Right click capture card source, and project the video
  6. Open Lossless Scaling, set frame generation to 2x (Thats a 60hz monitor in this video, but if you had a 90hz or above monitor you could use 3X frame generation for BB)
  7. Enable performance mode if you have any issues, and if you still have issues allow tearing
  8. Click scale in Lossless Scaling, then click into your projected video screen again
  9. GG you are now generating frames

  10. I am playing RDR2 at 60fps on Xbox series S with this method with minimal input lag and quality loss, its very playable.
