Just took a dive and bought a SS import set to replace my old xb one with a dying hdd. Actually I was waiting for Qisahn's stocks for SX sg set but got tired of waiting. Actually to think again its not that bad buying the series s for RM1699 for import set considering transport and tax charges to bring the items in. Was resorting to import set myself prolly from Amazon but it was all sold out as well and when it was available last time the cost of bring it in including postage+tax is around that price(RM1699) as well. So might as well bought it locally.

Btw, got myself the unit from GH thru shopee.  It's RM1699 ready stock instead of RM1799 on their website. Now, patiently waiting for the item to arrive  sweat.gif

If only Series S supports 4K 120 I would've gone for it. GP Ultimate is all I need biggrin.gif

yes no problem, im using BigPay to purchase anything from the store.

While most malaysian gone crazy about ps5 i bought xbox instead haha. Replaced my aging xbox one. Love it. Powerful. Sleek and simple design. Skipped ps5 due to bulky design. Waiting for ps5 pro or 2nd hand 😄 since all my games still can play on ps4.

I like xbox Quick resume feature and most XS game run in full native 4K which is great coz some game in ps5 can run only in 1800p. Enhanced version of last gen games also great. Love the fidelity details. FH4 now run in native 4K actually since xbox one x but i dont have that coz buy ps4 pro instead.

And now with 1SGD for 3 months game pass. I can play lots of games and with xbox can support more than 1 extended storage i can connect up to 3 hdd and store all the games there. Which is better than ps which only can support only 1 extended storage in 1 time.

So xbox become my main console again. Scalper price? Not an issue xbox not officially sell here 🤣🤣

u can use hotmail to create xbox profile. region can choose when u register the profile. after created profile then in xbox can switch region anytimes but this profile main country will still same. switch region is for access content in different regions

purchasing games also same as ps4, ps5. prices not much different. xbox game pass dont mean free games. think like u pay netflix or spotify montly. when u buy game pass then can play any games include in game pass...

if want to buy content, better use gift card reload to your account. depand on what region the profile been register, u need that country currencies...

That's something Microsoft has been great at starting with the Xbox One. I think it's fair to say PS4 absolutely destroyed the Xbox One last gen in terms of sales and also getting exclusives. That doesn't mean Xbox was a bad console. The backwards compatibility has been expanded even further. If you had an Xbox One X, certain games were also enhanced for Xbox One X, giving you improved textures, better framerates, or even 4k resolution. Your gamer profile and gamesaves are also stored in the cloud. If you have multiple Xbox systems, it's just a matter of logging in to whichever system you want to use, and your save will be synchronized.

Microsoft also started some gamer friendly features like Xbox Play Anywhere, where you also received the Windows Store version of a game when you bought the Xbox version. Play Anywhere titles also support cross save functionality, so you can start on PC, then continue on Xbox or vice versa. And of course, with the Series X|S consoles, they also have Smart Delivery. For games that have Smart Delivery, you just buy the game once, and you play it on last gen Xbox One or current gen Series X|S consoles. Depending on which system you play it on, the Xbox will download only the relevant assets for your console. In most cases, your savegame will also carry forward. So, if you are still rocking an Xbox One, you can play the game now, then at a later time when you have a Series X|S console, just log in to the new console with the same gamer profile, and your saves will carry over. This is something that has never been done at this level. Typically when a new gen starts, you leave your old games behind.

i wouldnt say xbox one is a bad console. i truly believe when buying a console one should choose what exclusive games that platform offers and where your friends game on. i sold off my 360 after forza 4 and since then there was no xbox games pique my interest.

very true about xbox play anywhere, now i can play forza 7 on xbox that i bought on PC smile.gif

Right now we can actually apply SG Xbox Game Pass Ultimate for better benefit ?

1) Register SG Microsoft account
2) Load up till 36 months gold live
3) Convert gold to game pass ultimate using SGD1 for 3 months
4) Change the xbox console region to US <-- works right ?

correct me if i'm wrong
