Excited and have been reading a ton here and elsewhere, the sale just pushed me into finally getting one.
I have a pretty decent gaming PC so curious to try out remote play. Also really into Starfield currently but have it via Gamepass, but read I can do the xbox cloud gaming merhod which 'seems' to work pretty well?

Read rumors about possible new hardware will feel dumb if better model comes out soobish.

Cheers!

Yah I am with you, mostly I don't play super intense games anways to your point.
However the 'us older gamers' and 30th hurt a little bit!
I just stepped into the 40s I guess I will go crawl in a hole and die now ๐Ÿซ ๐Ÿ˜…

I'm about to pile into my 50th and older games for me can be emulated on a pocket watch ๐Ÿ˜‚

I love my late 80s early nineties schmups so I play on my son's deck through retrodeck when he's asleep.

Nah, just accept that you lived through the golden era of gaming, woke up to a Nintendo or Super Nintendo eyes wide, and enjoyed Super Mario Bros 3 out of a new package that no zoomer will ever open.

Also, you probably own a house. That's a plus most of the younger generations will never experience.
