It's awesome. I just wish the UI looked new though to go with the new box and new gen.
And man is it heavy. It looks like a high quality, classy little PC.
When I added it online to my MS account it showed up as Xbox One. This is weird. I'll see if I can change its name.

27 November this beast will be mine
Microsoft have a good chance to compete with Sony in Saudi Arabia, big market that was mainly for Sony because they invest big here
Now a lot of youtubers have the console and did reviews and people on Twitter talking about it and the gamepass subscription
We already know that the pre-order numbers exceeded microsoft expectations.
It will be interesting to see how it will do in the future

Setting my Series X up right now! Nice touch using the mobile app to run through the setup, incredibly quick and easy.

Damn those are some big updates for Series X optimised games. Gears 5 was like 60GB, Forza Horizon 4 was about 60, think sea of thieves was about 30.
You can also go into the manage game screen and view the file info on the installed game, and it tells you the AppModel:GDK or XDK, Gen:Scarlett or Durango, and some other also pretty useless info haha.

I posted a similar picture a few hours ago in the official Xbox thread but here’s mine all set up. I picked it up this morning about 12 hours ago from EB Games in Australia. I’ve got it connected to an LG 4K monitor and I’m using a 1Tb Samsung T7 SSD for my external storage. The new controller is nice but I still like my Elite 2 more so I’m going to primarily use that still. It really is an awesome machine so far. Hats off to the engineers at Microsoft

Today's the day! Not gonna lie I'm a little nervous about everything working out smoothly. This year seems to be cursed. XSX is now in my state about 160mi away. Good luck to everyone!

So I have my Xbox Series X plugged in, updated and all of that, but it can't find any of my cloud data from the Xbox One, so none of my saves transferred. Am I missing something here? I thought this was all supposed to just work?

Yeah i believe they posted online there would be limited stock with special bundles or something?

Everything I read online says that my cloud stuff should have "just worked", so now I'm really disappointed.

Picked up my Series S this morning at Target. I was able to order one for store pickup last night around 1:30am EST. They lasted in stock about an hour online in terms of availability depending on specific store, so the idea of having store pickup only based on your area definitely gets rid of the bots and scalpers and made the process pretty smooth --- if you were online at the right time.
I was going to get the X but don't really need all that power and didn't want to spend $500. The S is a sleek little console and I really like it so far.
Pickup this morning around 8am was smooth, store wasn't crowded or anything and there were a few other customers waiting in line to pickup the new XBOX. Really smooth and easy launch day. Honestly, the smoothest launch day of any console as far as I remember.

Is there any word on a Witcher 3 xsx patch?
Never played Witcher 3 and I get the xsx today
debating whether to start it today or wait for it to be enhanced for xsx

More people are interested in PlayStation than Xbox in particular after the generation they both have had. besides the Xbox OT is busy with launch talk.
I got my Series X this morning and will get a PlayStation 5 in 2021.

The fact half of the UK and Canada as well as Germany never got them on launch day won't help....

The Witcher 3 is getting a free next-gen upgrade for PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC
The Witcher 3 is five years old but as playable as ever

Yeah, they had two extra but 25 or so showed up. They all left when u arrived and the employee had to give them the bad news. It says it on the door so not sure why people continue to wait so long for nothing.

Have fun with X/S guys. I'm waiting it out for a bit.
Costco Canada FINALLY has a tab, but it's only for Series S. And when you click it all it shows is a controller?!?!? lol
Considering how out of stock next gen systems are, looks like it'll be 2021 availability there for X.

Can someone who has one try out Skyrim and fallout 4 and let me know how the load times are?

Mine just got a 37 gb patch and it specifically called it an "Upgrade" and not just a patch.
Dude you quoted might not have gotten the upgrade or it didn't trigger, maybe try starting the game over or something
Aside from that. System is a BEAST and its so snappy, I really dont care about either systems UI's or menus but I can't lie I was cruising around them all morning cause of how fast it is.
Quick Resume is Super convenient...was playing some assassins creed, went and ran a race in forza, then jumped to ori and ran around just to test it out, went back to assassins creed where i was literally mid jump and the game just picked up right there lol.

Hmm. My earlier comments about cloud saves not working appears to only apply to the two Ori games. Every other game I've tried since has the cloud saves show up just fine. Disappointment gone, more confusion as to what happened to my Ori saves.

Worst part about setting it up is waiting for all the games you had to re-download. Saying that, i saw The Medium on GP and have it installing... is it out or is this just a pre-load?
