amount of money. The only thing I found good was the time it took to update the games because the functionality of the Xbox had quick internet speeds with updates only taking 13 to 20 minutes. For some other games like Fortnite it takes 2DAYS TO UPDATES ORR DOWNLOAD!!! Which is really unconventional for people who just want the game to get over and done with so that they can get some entertainment for themselves. I would also say that games on the game store are very expensive not the affordable amount that an average person would have all the money for. These games may be new and may seem like a good way to spend your hard earned money. But wasting $139 FOR NBA2K 25 IS JUST DELUSIONAL! I would recommend the prices to be around to be $90 maximum. If all of these things were all improved, I would be impressed.
Had a good experience but I only got a good year out of it until the sticks became slop. If they made these with anti drift it would be elite but at this price point definitely not recommended
Nowhere Near As Good As The Xbox360 Was – Console is digital only, so game purchases are limited to the Microsoft online store and gamepass (if you want to pay a monthly fee to be part of… Read more
it).
I was hoping to get more enjoyment out of the Xbox and gamepass but there were only a few games I wanted to play on it. After that time, which was only two months, I stopped paying for the service and we stopped playing with the Xbox and returned to the Nintendo Switch because the Switch has HEAPS of great first party games whereas Xbox has just a few. The Xbox has gathered dust for years until the last month where my son has got it out of the box to occasionally play a game of Fortnite.
The console is unobtrusive in the home environment (not like the PS5), but it does stand out a little bit more compared to the Switch. The console does work though and I haven’t had any problems with it, unlike the PS5. The Xbox Series S does get a little hot at times during the hot Australian months. The controller is light and good. Not as good as the Switch Pro controller or the PS5 one, but it gets the job done. It requires batteries and seems to chew through them very fast. I much prefer the rechargeable controllers of Nintendo and Sony.
Evaluating the Xbox, there’s no way we got our money’s worth.
Brand new Xbox controllers – I purchased a new neon Xbox controller it is less than 2 years old and is already drifting forward and back . My daughters new controller under a… Read more
year old drifts from side to side..these controllers are a waste of money, they are expensive and just will not last, I have had one Xbox one console and at least 3 controllers..they really have to stop making these so poorly.
Ordered for our son he loves it and didn’t wait long at all – Very happy with the whole order process have ordered a couple of times now excellent service delivery fast and customer service when I call fantastic I can’t fault this store at all thanks to you all
Great little thing, for the price – Dont be fooled by reviewers stating that this is "rubbish" or "unacceptable"... you're paying for a bluetooth ear-piece... its not going to be the best quality, but it will work. and it will work good.
Headset with bass...tick. Good long lasting connection...ehhh small tick – It is getting really hard to just be able to get what you want. The wireless headset scene for Xbox is suffering this exact problem, and the Xbox… Read more
Wireless headset tries to remedy this. USB-C charging is already an almost necessity nowadays: a tick for this headset already. Yet it lacks even the basic of fundamentals: an AUX port. While having a wireless headset is meant to negate the need for this, and a 15 hour battery life with quick charge to boot, it does symbolise a move away from the backup audio sources, and places a greater emphasis on connection strength. Headsets like Steelseries and this headset which utilise the Xbox Wireless protocol all fall victim to wireless interference, in which again there is no quick fix. Wireless units fall into either this category or a dongle based system; the dongle grants a much stronger and lower latency connection with no interference. The Bluetooth is 4.2, meaning it aint great but it is there for casual music usage, not for PC gaming. Grab a dongle if you are using this for PC use. What this headset does do well is bass...perhaps too well. Even at a flat EQ, the bass is powerful and thumping. Boost the bass in the Xbox Accessories controlled settings and the bass is perhaps too much. But it trumps more expensive headsets in this category, but if you want a broader soundscape, go elsewhere. But for 150 bucks, comparing this headset to the likes of Corsair, Steelseries or HyperX is like comparing apples to birthday cakes. This headset is meant to be an entry level, yet premium sounding headset. Dolby Atmos can help the sound a tad, but this is also a scene where you get what you pay for. In the end, for 149 this headset does well enough to keep you in the gaming zone. auto mute mic and adjustable settings do just enough to make it feel premium. Want an entry level headset with extra features to keep yah hooked? Grab this and give it a whirl. But if you want a broader sound scape, more battery, a better mic or even better build quality... go a Steelseries. In the end though, you get what you pay for, and headsets like this that blur those lines are beginning to appear everywhere.
Great idea, poor implementation – Having purchased this as an everyday remote to replace my Microsoft media remote to watch TV it was nice to get a remote that felt like a TV remote.… Read more
It has a nice plasteel feel, nice lighting up action when moving so you can see the buttons at night. Unfortunately after 2 months of use the navigate left button is worn out and won't respond naturally. Good design, just wears out, which is a shame really.

Xbox Sux Because of Crossplatform, it's like crossdressing rammed in your face – Xbox crossplatform? xbox didn't put much thought into this as it's one sided. All games that are cross platform have the same issues? Everyone except… Read more
xbox players have an Advantage. I Know what I'm talking about, I've been an Active Xbox Live Premium Member for 15Yrs Straight .
Take world of Tanks, Playstation player's can shoot xbox player's any where because either the rock or hill or building isn't there or is smaller, playstation artillery can drop a round directly over a building and hit you even if you are hugging the building and Xbox you would be very lucky even if you hit the building let alone the same grid there in, or xbox player is coming up over a hill and the playstation player can shoot you long Before you reach the summit? Or you are sneaking undetected on the other side of a hill and a Playstation player in a Light tank on the other side of the Map detects you? can't fkn explain it ! There are hundreds of problems with these crossplatforms? mostly because all PC or PLAYSTATION players use mod's, xbox players can't use Mod's because there not supported or excepted within the system. The only mod's Xbox players get is Pretty pink paint or Fairy Wings You all no what I'm saying hahahaha, Yes you can use modded Controllers But the people that modified them don't play all games, they usually play mindcraft or cod or fortnight? all the wimppy games And thats it? smallDKsindrome hahahahahaaha, I've contacted several control modders in the last few weeks and they all say, We Don't Play That Game. my reply is, F well you no what I would have said?????
