Why I'm Not Getting the PS5 or Xbox Series X - Yet

Xbox Series X

Hey guys,

Check it out!

Have you checked out the few top YouTubers that got their hands on the Xbox Series X, S, and PS5, doing their unboxing videos? I must say, I'm a little jealous. Ok, I'm feeling envious and jealous! At the same time, I'm feeling, meh!

Yeah, it's all new and dandy with the latest specs. While Xbox Series X/S design is simple and kinda Zen, although, they could go for much smaller and slimmer. The PS5 is like something from the future. See that I said, "future". Because we're still not advance yet. In terms of technology and the way we live or do things.



Xbox Series X

• Introducing Xbox Series X, the fastest, most powerful Xbox ever. Play thousands of titles from four generations of consoles-all games look and play best on Xbox Series X.
• Experience next-gen speed and performance with the Xbox velocity architecture, powered by a custom SSD and integrated software.
• Play thousands of games from four generations of Xbox with Backward compatibility, including optimized titles at launch.
• Download and play over 100 high-quality games, including all-new Xbox Game Studios titles like Halo Infinite the day they release, with Xbox Game Pass ultimate (membership sold separately).
• Xbox Smart delivery ensures you play the best available version of your game no matter which Console you're playing on.

Xbox Series S

• Access your favorite entertainment through apps like YouTube, Netflix, and more
• Enjoy over 100 games right out of the box with a 1 month Xbox Game Pass trial
• Watch 4K Blu-ray movies and stream 4K video on Netflix, Amazon, Hulu, Microsoft Movies & TV, and more
• Play with friends and family near and far—sitting together on the sofa or around the world on Xbox Live, the fastest, most reliable gaming network
• Xbox One games and accessories work together

At the moment, I still have my Xbox One S Gear of War edition. I haven't been playing games on it for a couple of months now since my trial version of the Xbox Game Pass or was it Live Gold ended. This is part of the reason why I hate the gaming world today. 

I also stop buying games when they have all these confusing versions of the games. You can buy games that include game pass or live gold. And, even if you have subscriptions, you still have to buy new games when they come out.



PlayStation 5 Console

• Lightning Speed - Harness the power of a custom CPU, GPU, and SSD with Integrated I/O that rewrite the rules of what a PlayStation console can do.
• Stunning Games - Marvel at incredible graphics and experience new PS5 features.
• Breathtaking Immersion - Discover a deeper gaming experience with support for haptic feedback, adaptive triggers, and 3D Audio technology.

Of course, Sony Playstation has the same deal too. Makes you more confused about which one to choose. By the way, the PlayStation 5 also has a digital version. Most gamers today prefer buying games via the system online store.

Gone are the good old days when you go to your local game store to get the physical version. They'll sometimes have cool offers with posters or special editions. I don't see the point of buying a physical version if the only thing you're gonna get is the game disc or cartridge.

I'm not saying I dislike buying the digital version of the games. In fact, I bought so many games on the Nintendo Switch stores which are always having good deals. I'm running out of storage. Even though, I just bought a 512GB MicroSD card.

If you're wondering what does a Nintendo Switch have to do with the latest Xbox Series X/S and PS5? Well, I'm gaming more on it than I ever will with either the Xbox or Playstation. Well, my Playstation 3 died on me a couple of years back. That's why I'll probably get the PS5 later on, if ever.



Nintendo Switch Lite - Gray

Owning the Nintendo Switch lite right now, makes me realized, I'll be using it more than the Xbox X Series or a PS5. Simply because it is more accessible and flexible. Turning on both of the consoles is a hassle. I might turn it on once in a while to enjoy the advanced graphics and play games on the big screen Tv.

In the end, it really depends on your own preferential. Some like to sit down and enjoy playing their games for hours on their console. Some like me prefer playing on their handheld whenever and wherever we go. Especially, if you travel or move around a lot.

To play a console game, you need to set a time to play it. Playing on a portable console, you play anywhere and anytime you want. It's always with you. Just like playing mobile games. Only, the Nintendo Switch has 'real' games. Not games that need an internet connection or full of advertisements!

Yup, I'm not getting the PS5 or Xbox Series X, yet. But, I'll definitely get the latest Nintendo Switch if ever they're coming up with a more advanced version. Meanwhile, I'll enjoy playing games more on my portable game console. That's for sure!
