Introducing the Xbox series x back in stock! Also known as the ozbargain complain series x!

Is this a deal?

Will some ozbargain members have a melt down about this post? Of course!

Will there be a whinge about it?! Of course!

Who will have a public breakdown in the comments first?!

“This iz not ozRrP!”

“But canz get it local not deal op reported!”

“This or 400 4090s”

“But Mum said I can’t have one till Christmas and it will sell out”

“PS5 is better the controller fits my small hands better”

“Re3L gamers r PC gamers using 40-90”

“I still have (insert whatever obscure 1 off series) in box!” - “bro that’s still worth RRP!”

Make your bets below in the comments! The biggest complaining cry baby wins a prize!

It is said before battle Tai Szun showed the enemy his Xbox series X that he got at RRP. The enemy seeing that they could never get it at RRP began fighting amongst themselves. “My Mummy got it at RRP” Tai Szun yelled across the battlefield. The RRP Xbox series x had incredible value from that day forth.

Limit of 1 per customer.

          Hmmm got too excited and purchased ohhh well, it's wait and see with Amex, but still wanted it either way. Hoping that it still counts and as the site really mentioned in the terms is "Microsoft Online" where the page goes to the business solutions, where you can still access Xbox Series X through its search and it's not in any of exclusion, like the student discount that calls out can't be used for Xbox consoles lol I'll keep an eye out and have my fingers crossed to see if I get the credit.

      • This doesn’t have forced bundling of over priced controllers or games.
      • MS didn’t increase the price.
      • There are also discount gift card options.

    Kind of unrelated but it looks like PS5 is becoming more available. The Horizon Dawn bundle has been in stock for a few days now. It might be because it’s just shy of $900 but it’s good that customers aren’t willing to pay anything to get it anymore

      When you write in the description what they will likely complain about. Then there is nothing else to complain about 😅 luckily the same complaints are always the same so it was easy to write.

  • Poimandres on 19/10/2022 - 13:15

    Here's why I decided on an Xbox Series X instead of PS5 this gen (historically I've swung back and forth between Sony and MS).

    • The Series X is cheaper
    • The Series X is more powerful
    • The Series X design is nicer (to my eyes)
    • More robust backwards compatibility
    • Gamepass Ultimate can be had very cheap (ie; 3 years for less than the price of a single Sony first party game)
    • Big fan of some of the studios MS now owns
    • Not that into the direction Sony is taking PS these days (ie; no more Wipeout, shutting Japan Studios etc)

    Best bang for your buck is probably wait for a sale or good cashback on a Series S and get cheap gamepass. You could go years without needing to spend another dollar. If you have a PS4 or XB1 think about trading in soon while you can still get $300+ dollars for them. The price will drop once these consoles are readily available, so those rates won't last too much longer.

        It's just eats up a bunch of ram memory And slows the system down.

        also i think it is one of the reason for proprietary storage expansion.

        • guidedlight on 19/10/2022 - 15:16
          +2

          It doesn’t use any memory or slow the system down. It’s pretty seemless, maybe 10 seconds to switch games.

          It doesn’t work very well for multiplayer games though.

    • Poimandres on 19/10/2022 - 17:19
      +1

      This gen has only just started. We're only now starting to see current gen exclusives coming through (outside of a few Sony games from the last two years) and lots of the big upcoming games are still cross-gen. Maybe we'll get a mid generation refresh in a couple of years. I wouldn’t expect a price drop until maybe this time next year if we're lucky (once the new Nintendo console launches).

    • Teh White Mamba on 19/10/2022 - 20:01

    What an awful deal! Only little kids and soy boys who can't game on PC would buy one of these, I could make a better console with my eyes shut.

    Besides, everytime I buy an Xbox, I find that my Controllers start to smell little bit funny after a few weeks and that vibration settings change randomly while at uni. I asked my GF if she's playing on it while I'm not there, but she swears she doesn't game.

    So, f you xbox and your funky but faintly familiar smelling Controllers.
