Reply to comment by josmaate in Should I sell my Series X? by Elkattio

I was hoping that Starlink would be the answer, but according to the app, there are too many overhead obstructions for it to work efficiently. I live between two tree-covered hills and have powerlines crisscrossing over my yard/house.

Even a 4090 would struggle getting 30 fps on 8k... Most titles are using resolution scaling on the current system, so I really doubt this generation aimed at 8k. In fact, it's the 1st go at 4k... Would you pay 3000$ for a pro version just to play on 8k?

If you think 100GB for a game is big, wait until we get textures for 8k tv... it will be 400GB per game :)

It does penalize other systems because each game needs to fit on that console. Also, it needs feature parity between consoles, at least between microsoft consoles. If you wanted to add a feature that takes too much memory to fit on a series S, then you can't put it on series X either. You can put it on PS5 but microsoft won't like it.
