Microsoft's mighty Tower of Power.
In the first year of the Xbox Series X, Microsoft has struggled to capitalize on its best-in-class power with a packed lineup of exclusives, but among the games it has delivered are some real winners, including Microsoft Flight Simulator and Forza Horizon 5. No matter what current games you throw at it, your loading times will be drastically cut, your framerates will be smoother, and your resolutions will be higher. This bold and minimalistically designed box is quiet, compact for both the power it packs and especially how it compares to the PS5, capable, and loaded with convenience features like instantly resuming and cycling between any of your recently played games. Compared directly to the PlayStation 5’s specs, it flat-out gives you more power for the same price. Still, the internal SSD’s space has felt increasingly cramped, making the storage upgrades seem more essential than would be ideal. But Microsoft’s commitment to accessibility, backwards compatibility, and services like Game Pass and Cloud Gaming has paid off – and we’re only beginning to see a future where an Xbox is more than a box. Until then, the Series X is certainly a great box to have if you can find one, as they remain a rare commodity on store shelves.
