anyway... I think they name it purposely one, there's no way they'll miss that, similar like how Tesla released their car model, model S, 3 and X
it's catchy and easy to remember, as we human is always thinking about sex tongue.gif

I guess this is beast spec. Why make it big, it could be the cpu and gpu is so powerful.

Bear in mind, Microsoft recent spending spree for buying studios for great blockbuster exclusive games eitj 15 studios and one grade 3AAA called The intiative still secretly build game.

I'm predict next gen is they make comeback.

May te gorce be with you green team!!

they'll never beat Sony when they have forsaken one of the biggest global gaming market, Japan & Asia.

Their main aim is still NA & EU market, Asians? heh... we'll only get the leftover crumbs...

LOL, get your facts right

one week of Nintendo dominant sales means PS4 is dying? sweat.gif

It's year end holiday sales period, where traditionally Nintendo is the king of sales there, also there aren't any major PS4 games releases around that period as well

MS already forsaken Asia Xbox market, period.
and Sony's PlayStation still will be sales chart champ in Asia, period.

my main console journey

NES -> MD -> N64 -> GC -> PS2 -> X360 -> PS4Pro -> ???

and I got all the other consoles (XB, PS3, Wii, XB1S, Switch & etc) as secondary consoles
too many games... too little time

my next gen main console most likely will be XBsX, the force is extremly strong with that one
PS5 doesn't have any attraction to me yet...

yeah, that's why very hesitant to pre-order

guess I'll wait a bit until I can get the unit with local shop warranty

buy too soon also no use, my existing game library is still too much to handle...

It depends on how robust the hardware is I guess. My OG Xbox One was purchased through a friend in Ireland. No warranty whatsoever, but it didn't give me any problems. My Xbox One X was purchased from Impulse, with warranty through them. Lucky I had the warranty too, since it died after only 5 months. It would have been a very expensive paperweight if I didn't have the warranty.
*
yeah, that's the risk there

reports are coming in that the XBsX is running very hot,
basically it's a mini portable heater there with hot winds blowing out when it's running only XB1 games
can't imagine how hot it will be when it's running next gen games hmm.gif

But hot air also meaning the giant fan and the huge heat sink is working as intended
and I think we should have more space for air circulation around the console this time

From what I understand, hot air is being rapidly moved from the bottom of the console to the top, which is what we feel at the top vent. That means it's doing its job properly. The 360 actually had a known design flaw, but Microsoft still rushed it to beat Sony to market. I don't believe the Series X will have this issue, but some skepticism is healthy. I also don't want to give Microsoft a free pass over it.

from the teardown videos, it seems it's well designed this time, using big aluminum block, huge vapor chamber heatsink, and one big huge fan, looks well engineered, so I think internal running temp shouldn't be an issue this time.

while on the other camp, still nothing on the teardown, PS4's heat issue was pretty bad, anyone owning one will tell you how loud is it when running complex games.

Same here. My first 360 model was the launch version, the one without HDMI out. After that got RROD, I sent it to someone to have it fixed using washer method. I sold that unit to someone, so I'm not sure if it happened again. Then I got another unit that had the HDMI out (Falcon), but THAT also got RROD! I sent it to someone to be re-balled, and that fixed the issue permanently. I did however sell THAT one to my junior, and got a 360 arcade set as the replacement (Jasper). This one never got RROD to this day.
*
LOL, how come your experience is same like mine? except I DIYed the first two using washer method and resell it also tongue.gif
re-ball is too expensive for me since I'm planning to resell it anyway

anyway... those are really the simpler days, also the start of "Play Original" era, where I spend a lot of time "educating" my peers on the importance of buy & support original games biggrin.gif

Third batch, I managed to pre-order the console from Shopitree, ETA Mid December. Total damage is RM 2370, includes DHL express delivery. As for the tax tho, they did warn me but they also not sure about the calculation. I'm googling around and even I'm confused right now. Any tips?
*
with that amount (2k+) and it's DHL, there's no escape from kastam, you'll sure kena tax one
you can expect to top-up another 10-16% for the tax, worst case scenario is up to 21%
all depends on the mood the kastam officer on duty that time

Dusted off my x1s yesterday, took almost whole afternoon for the massive updates & game download on my home clogged network

looking at the new UI it's definitely better than the old one, also with the inclusion of the EA pass into the game pass? OMG lembu suci!! there are tonnes of AAA games in there I wanted to play so badly, not to mention I get to play Destiny 2 Beyond Light at launch for "free"??!!
But my X1S is showing it's age, small HDD and it's clicking sounds is making me mad, how I wished for a XsX right now.

Dusting it off just making me wanted a XsX sooooo bad tongue.gif

i plan to PO and resell  tongue.gif but woke up 1hour late, everything gone. I just cant buy it for myself now, because at launch no exclusive game i would like to play. PS plus collection? Most game tat interest me already played. I have more interest in gamepass game, heck i even get destiny 2 beyond light to play full game. And i am a fan of Halo and gears series, so halo 5 and gears 4 and 5 i havent play too. So many games i can play if i buy xbox series X. Sony exclusive game i am in interest is god of war, uncharted only. Last of Us they pretty much fuk up part 2, aint gonna play that franchise anymore.

I had that in mind too, PO & resell, but then I'll turn into a scalper that I hated too, so gotta stand my moral ground tongue.gif

I am very tempted to remove my pre-order deposit from GH, after their PS5 fiasco.

Don’t feel like supporting money grabbin companies man.
*
I had similar experience few years back on the NES Mini preorder
my preorder shop increased the price of the console at launch, citing their supplier increase the price hence they have to increase also, the problem is I found out most other shops they honored their PO price
told them it's unethical to increase the price at launch, even I can afford the price increase and very desperate for the NES mini, so I cancelled my PO with them and end up without a NES Mini till today.
Did I regret my decision that day? Nope, I'm glad in stand by my principal for not supporting any unethical shops
FYI, that shop has since folded, got too many bad reps

So even if GH today is selling a XsX at RM1299 super discount price I won't buy from them also.

It's not the matter of monies, it's the matters of principle.

Okay now we are on this topic, I have a burning question to ask -

Would you rather buy a wireless gaming headphones that is XBOX optimized, or just use your standard headphones with Dolby Atmos for Headphones?

I’m on the fence to fully experience this, although the standard headphones requires a 3.5mm connection, which means if I watch a movie / show on Netflix, my controller has to be ‘on me’. But are these ‘gaming headphones’ really worth it?
*
imo if you want the full experience, you gotta get the compatible headphones

my first wiresless xbox headphone was razer chimera 5.1 for x360, it's very good imo compared to normal wired one, except the crappy battery life
next was Sony Gold wireless for PS4, it's good compared to normal one,
then I upgraded to Steelseries Arctis Pro, it's compatible for both XB1 and PS4, albeit no chat function on XB1, it's best purchase of my life, good batt life, comfy, doesn't gave me sweaty ears or head pressure from prolong use, and damn good audio too
too bad next gen both console doesn't come with a optical out anymore, meaning I can't use it there
So gotta look for a new wireless headset for next gen consoles, so far the reviews on Arctis 7x isn't bad, might grab that one once I got my next gen consoles
seems that one is compatible with both camp also, which is another plus point.

the RM800 consoles on shopee definitely is a scam la
seems few already paid and received the so called "PO confirmation" in the mail?

Those buyers can kiss their RM800 bye bye then, if they clicked confirmed received, and already rated the seller, Shopee will release the payment to the seller already.
After that, Shopee washed their hand, and the scammer seller is laughing to the bank, while the scammed buyer is still patiently waiting for the "PO" console to arrive in next few months. doh.gif
And they'll only realised they have been scammed after the console never arrived and the seller disappeared by closing shop on shopee.
