Somehow Xbox Series struggles a lot to be seen as a Christmas gift...
I thought Series X/S was still under 30m?
I'll say this... if I didn't already have a series x, i would have stayed on the xbox one due to still being able to play series games via xcloud. I remember the first time playing flight sim on my VCR xbox one via streaming and it was pretty damn cool. So i totally see why the series has dropped below the XBO because they dont really do enough to enforce people to adopt the new tech because they make the games easily playable on their existing tech (as well as other means).
And honestly, i love that approach. Its easier for me to play the newer games without having to worry about do i need the newer hardware. I'm less about collecting games like i was when i was younger... now its just about playing and enjoying them in the most convenient ways.
