The new generation is much simpler, if you hate ownership then get the xbox series s, which is different from the Xbox one s and has no disk slot but also it runs at a lower framerate and can't do high resolution gaming. The Xbox series x, which is different from the Xbox one x, has a disk slot and is better in every way except it's a giant monolith that you need to figure out how to fit in your setup.

At this point I am actually laughing out loud as I legitimately have no idea if this is entirely correct, entirely false or a mix of both.

Very good naming schemes fucking incredible.

Yah, theyve tried so hard to avoid sequential numbering as they would appear to be lagging behind PlayStation making the laymen think the PlayStation equivalent is newer. If they followed numbers it would look something like:

  • Xbox
  • (360) Xbox 2
  • (Xb1) Xbox 3
  • (Xb1s) Xbox 3 S
  • (Xb1x) Xbox 3 pro
  • (Xbss) Xbox 4
  • (Xbsx) Xbox 4 pro

You’re off by one. The 360 was the second Xbox.

Just the formatting didn't do it any favors, I'll see if I can fix it.
