Boxed, instructions, expansion pack etc?

As a collector and all unboxed I'd pay 80 quid. I don't want it though.

Not necessarily. I have a PC (with a 3090), Series X and a Switch and they get equal playtime...

Just because the switch doesn't have the newest hardware, there is something to be said for being able to have a portable console like the switch. Another reason I play the switch is for Switch exclusives. They are the only ones that never make it onto the xbox or PC, unlike a lot of PlayStation exclusives.

No way only 350

Oh, well I missed that. This is much more exciting than now.

They separated from bioware and are no longer bioware, pretty sure its not the next mass effect

Series S is a safer pick.

He has all his friends on it and he gets the benefit of improved graphical fidelity but most importantly the speed of the SSD.

This just generally makes your gaming much more pleasurable as everything is so snappy!

Ofc the series s is a digital only console so bear that in mind also.

The switch is, well the switch?

Does he have an interest in Pokémon? Mario? Zelda? I find it rather pointless buying a console that’s just as much or near enough as much a series S when in reality it’s offering you less value for your money.

He also wouldn’t be able to play many of those games with his friends aside from possibly rocket league?

But ultimately value for money is something only you will know.

Friends and if he plays with them a lot are a huge value, let alone the technical improvements of the newer console on its own!

I'm pretty sure we know what it is. It's the next mass effect.

Have you tried second hand.

Your “guy friends” mislead you into an awful decision

I can’t afford one unfortunately :(

As mentioned above, lots of my guy friends have told me they wished they had one! My brother has one and we enjoy playing it so it was just an idea.

If he had an Xbox to start with, what makes you think he will want a switch ( an even more downgraded version of an Xbox one)

No.

Wolfenstein 3

Thank you! Love the optimism here hahaha I think he only has digital games but that is important to note! So his main complaint is his Xbox One being slow. His roommate has a series S and he loves it but like others have said, I feel like the X is just the better buy but I am really struggling with the price/availability of the X :,)

I think he only has digital games but this is definitely something to keep in mind wow

Thank you, this helps a lot! I think it’s just becoming slower and he wants more storage or something idk I should’ve listened better :,) lol

Remakes of Pokemon Black and White that are actually good. I loved Gen 5 so much.

I wish more games were announced and released shortly after announcement. Like they did with Fallout 4.

Get him an xbox series x.

PEGGLE. 3!!!!! *jumps really awkwardly on stage

I agree with this comment.

Just want to add, unfortunately the steam deck is very expensive, anything more then 64GB(anything worth buying) is more expensive then Xbox X.

Dragon Quest 9 remake, with online cross platform play. I’d love to play it with my friends cause I missed the golden years where the online was active without having to edit the connection. (Plus it’s literally my favourite game ever)
