Hey guys! I'm thinking to use the trick in the link below, it is a pricing glitch which is allowing users to gift (maximum 2 persons for gifting) the Series X cross gen version of COD Cold War for $10. It requires a user to purchase the standard Xbox One digital version, and then perform the $10 upgrade on the xbox store. This "upgrade" seems to be giftable at this moment so that is how the trick works.

This is for the Series X optimized version with significantly enhanced visuals and 120fps framerates on both Xbox Series X and Series S.

Perhaps the link explains it better so you can take a look tongue.gif

We all know game prices are so high nowadays, so I'm thinking if I could get 2 persons who are interested in this deal, maybe we could split the cost of the 3 copies once redeemed. Based on my quick calculation it could end up at around RM118 per person using the Argentina store if we split three ways. I would only be able to access my Xbox tonight, but if anyone here has access to Argentina store and an Xbox now maybe we could get started earlier laugh.gif

Have been using the Series X for a few days now. It is everything I wanted it to be and more.

Everything loads so fast with the SSD, and the framerates are buttery smooth in virtually game I have tested. I have been out of touch with console gaming recently due to the inconvenience in the past few years. Going back to the ancient long load speeds on my Xbox One after playing COD Mobile or PUBG on my phone didn't make sense. On top of that, the constantly dropping framerates on Xbox One was very noticeable. Because of this, my Xbox Controller has spent most of the past MCO months strapped to my phone mount for COD Mobile. Lot of phone comparisons I know, but I think it is relevant to the times.

I can safely say the Series X is pulling me back in to console gaming again. The drastically improved load times is such a huge improvement, fast travelling in Assassin's Creed Valhalla and switching cars in Forza Horizon 4 feels as fast as loading a game on a smartphone, except it's on a huge tv playing in 4K 60FPS with HDR! Testing out games which have suffered in performance last gen like PUBG and Jedi: Fallen Order and now running in locked 60FPS is just so exciting. Gears 5 is a great showcase and the multiplayer is more fun than I expected too.

Quick resume works like magic. Game pass is also the best value in gaming ever, nuff' said?

Seriously I'm having such a great experience that I am already shopping again thinking of which next Series X optimized game to get. I have been waiting so long to be this excited again for consoles, next gen is definitely here and it is off to an incredible start with Xbox.

Yeah I played it last night as well, but I got a headache after an hour of playing so decided to stop playing.

Oh, which region is your console from?
