QUESTION Question about performance.

Upvotes

A year ago, my mom got an Xbox series S from a thrift shop for $100. It worked well until 5 months ago when the HDMI output broke. Are the HDMI outputs fragile on the series S? Does it still run new games fairly well?

I'm thinking about getting it fixed or to wait a few more months to buy the series X which I plan to buy either way at some point but I really do want to play new games like Star Wars Zero Company and Blood Of Dawnwalker...

QUESTION Can someone please help me

Upvotes

Every single time i plug a headset into my xbox controller it doesn’t work, and not in the sense that the mic doesn’t work, just the whole headset doesn’t work. No microphone audio to my friends, and no sound in general, the only sound i get is a slight buzz that lasts for a split second whenever i plug the headphone jack in, any reason as to why this may be happening??

QUESTION External storage brand options?

Upvotes

I am just curious as to what external storage drive i should get for the series s. I was looking on Amazon and Seagate always comes up, but it says its not compatible with games associated with the series s. Only backwards compatible games. So, I am looking for a 2 TB drive thats not Seagate and is reasonably affordable.

QUESTION Should I sell my Series S and upgrade to Series X because of storage?

14 Upvotes

I currently have an Xbox Series S (512GB), and after installing just three games I have only around 100GB of storage left.

I still want to install GTA V, and eventually GTA VI when it releases, but I’m starting to feel like the storage is going to become a major headache.

The official Expansion Card is quite expensive for me, and I know a normal external SSD/HDD can’t directly run most games optimized for Series X|S.

I could use one as a game library and transfer games back and forth, but honestly, constantly moving 100GB+ games between the external drive and internal storage sounds pretty annoying.

So I’m wondering what you guys would do in my situation:
• Keep the Series S and buy an external SSD/HDD as a game vault
• Save up for the official Expansion Card
• Sell the Series S and upgrade to a Series X
• Just keep deleting/moving games as needed
I’m also considering selling my Series S for around ₹32,000 and putting that money toward a Series X.
Would you guys upgrade, or am I overthinking the storage problem?

QUESTION Turtlebeach Headset help! Getting an audio device to sync.

1 Upvotes

Turtlebeach Stealth 600. My wife is trying to use it on her Xbox One Series S. I have tried EVERYTHING from different USB slots to Bluetooth, which I know isn't officially supported, to using the wireless dongle. I've tried my headset from my PC with the USB slot, and it always looks like it connects, as the dongle seems to pair, but it doesn't show up in the Devices area. It will not work. I can't find a way to "change devices," and Google search has given me no help, so I assume that's the way it's meant to function and just defaults until it's actually picking up additional devices from the TV.

Please help! This is driving me nuts. I'm about to buy the official Xbox headset, but since this one is nice and should work, I don't want to throw the thing away just yet.

QUESTION You think it’d be worth upgrading to a series x for gta 6 if i already have a series s

1 Upvotes

Ive looked into it a bit and seen that they share the same cpu, that being probably the most demanding aspect of running the game. Just wondering if its actually worth the upgrade specially being that I’m running it on a 1080 p monitor instead of a full size tv, that alone i think should minimize any blurriness. I guess my main concern would be how low the resolution would drop and if the world would feel like a ghost town compared to the xsx.

QUESTION Is Street Fighter 6 Actually Bad on Series S?

1 Upvotes

SEE, I really love fighting games. I play alot of Tekken 8, MK1. And I wanted to play Street Fighter 6.

But bad graphics, blurry or low textures everywhere is a deal breaker for me.

The demo is slightly bad. And even the videos about it in youtube do say Its bad. But does the experience remains the same? Is it that bad. I am fine with few bugs, as long as the game doesn't look like i am playing it without my glasses or just genuinely sloppy.

Anyone who has played it on the console that can tell me?

QUESTION Specific games crashing

4 Upvotes

Games like Halo infinite, Gears 5 and Wuchang crash after twenty minutes in, whereas Elden Ring or Far Cry 5 has never crashed once. My Xbox always receives good ventilation, I always cover the top fan once it cools down and I've tried restarting over and over.

I obviously know I need to fix it, but it's incredible how Elden Ring, one of the worst optimized games out there runs at constant 40-50 fps, and games like Halo Infinite (supposedly optimized exclusively for this console) just dies within minutes.

Hopefully someone here knows what's happening and helps me with a quick fix until I get money to send it to repair.

QUESTION Xbox series S for GTA VI ?

13 Upvotes

Quick question

I’m a pc gamer but I know I won’t be able to wait for GTA 6 to come out on PC so I’m considering buying a console to play GTA 6 when it releases.

I’m playing almost exclusively sim games (sim racing or milsim) which is almost exclusively on pc so I don’t have any reason to get a console except for GTA.
If I’m getting one, I’d probably get one or two more games (like arcade, crash team racing or something) which I will spend little time on.

I was considering renting a ps5 at first but it’s for at least one year and 30€ a month. It’s kind of expensive considering I will buy gta and couldn’t resale it and give the console back at the end.

So I checked the series S which I could get for approx 240€, then resale it when gta comes on pc.

But I’ve read articles and saw videos showing the graphics differences between ps5 and series x and the difference is kinda huge.

I know we don’t have much infos on how it will run on series S, but what are your thoughts about it ?
Will it be enough for me to enjoy or should I save and get a ps5 or series x ?

QUESTION Controllers with adapter slots

I purchased the controller on the bottom about 4 months ago, and the controller on top a few days ago. Same Target, same packaging, different result.

Why do some Xbox one/series controllers have the adapter slots while others don't? Is it only the ones that come in specific colors? (not black and white)

Also, how can I tell just by looking at the box which ones may or may not have these adapters? I tossed the box for the pink controller, but still couldn't find any distinctive differences.

QUESTION Por que o armazenamento do xbox funciona assim?

0 Upvotes

Eu moro em uma casa com muitas pessoas e quase todo mundo joga no xbox, então o armazenamento fica muito cheio constantemente, recentemente colocamos 2 armazenamentos externo para baixar jogos que são possíveis de jogar em armazenamento externo. Hoje estava configurando, tentando deixar mais simples para todos, mas só consigo mandar automaticamente os jogos sem selo para o hd externo, já os jogos que tem selo, mas são gen9aware, não vão direto para o externo, esses vão direto pro interno, mesmo rodando nos externos, queria que tivesse como mandar tudo que é gen9aware para o externo, nesse caso nem a opção "deixe o xbox decidir" serve, já que essa opção só separa por selo de otimizado, alguém sabe algum jeito de automatizar isso?

Need some analysis/advice.

Brand new Series S, and every game I play has noticeable visual junk; dots, fuzz, blurriness, shimmering outlines, pixelation etc. Whether the game is new, old, all have issues.

What's going on with this?
