Xbox Series X / S

Craig_ said:
Telkom currently has an xbox series s for cheap, thinking of keeping my current phone and getting this for the kids rather, current phone still looks and works like new. Not having read anything in this thread, and currently owning an old xbox 360 only using it for netflix and youtube, would this be a good purchase? I'd like to do streaming as I don't have a smart tv and buy some games for the kids to play during the school holidays mostly.

And my current xbox kinect, can I use this with the series s?

Assuming just Openserve, can still be with other ISP's?

Entire deal is only for Openserv customars... question remains re GamePass if its included for the time of the contract
 
That will only be for 3 months if you had to ask me, especially given the graphic and with Prima Interactive being the issuer .
 
About 10 days into owning an xbox and playing games for the first time in a decade or more.
Got the xbox wireless headset as well, very cool.

Games have changed alot!
So far, played Last Jedi, the first Ori game (loved this) and am starting lost in random.

Bought elden ring, but saving it for end of next week when I am out of action for a few weeks.

Any other must play game recommendations? Preferably from the game pass?

Ori is an all time favourite of mine. Definitely check out the 2nd one.

I am busy with Psychonauts 2 and enjoying it, should check it out

Gears 5
Outriders
Mass Effect Legendary Edition
Assassins Creed Origins (coming next month)
Forza (4 or 5)
 
340*24 is alot for a series s given you can get away with it for around 6k

2nd hand around 5

but if you cant afford the once off then i guess a 24 month is worth it

and game pass most likely the 1 or 3 month

if was 24 then yes this deal is very good
 
My Series S I've had for about 5 months. Doesn't have a scratch on it. Literally never switch it on as I bought a PC. I cover the XBox & controller for dust.

I've thought about selling it but ag the hassle of putting it up for sale and weeding through the time wasters I might as well just give it to someone for free and make their day / year.

Money wasted.
Bought at takealot, have slips and everything. Oh well.

How much did you want to sell it for? If you can hold onto it for a bit I might be able to buy it off you.

I'm the opposite.

Bought a Series S on launch, upgraded to Series X, Jan 2022, with a i7 Gaming PC filing for divorce. Haven't played a PC game since Nov 2020.

Loving the couch gaming on 58" 4K TV too much...

Edit: And yes I use to be a PC gamer:
