Basically no more games on other platforms unless they can bring over Gamepass.

The $300 Xbox Series S is the twist. It's a smaller, cheaper unit, priced like a new Nintendo console, which tend to be innovative but under-powered. Microsoft boasts that the Series S will run cutting-edge games at high framerates, though not in 4K like the Series X. And unlike the Series X, it doesn't have a disc drive, and comes with 512GB of storage compared to the X's 1TB. It's a big step up from the main Xbox One on the market now, but it's certainly a stripped down Series X. It was only officially announced a month ago.

At launch, Spencer expects the X to be the hotter seller, driven by the kinds of early adopters who snatch new consoles

same.  i have to agree with whatever sony exec said the lesser sku has a history of not selling as well.  for that too be true the premium sku need to be really premium.  the series x is "identical" to ps5 so the series s is gimped.  no one will ever view it as anything else except the consolation console for people too poor to afford the good stuff.

Plus its shelf life is limited. 4 years from now Series X will feel ok and series s will feel like a console at the end of its life. Series S needs to have a great 2021 if it's going to beat Series X long term.

still odd they don't have it ready for launch but at least it isn't too long of a wait.

Hinting at at least two modes (performance and quality)

Not sure if it's a bit too slow, the combat looks uninteresting, but I'm somewhat excited for Scorn.

The video is rated mature so you have to be logged in. Pretty common with a lot of official game trailers.
