I’ve been bouncing back and forth between ps and Xbox, ps2->Xbox 360-> Xbox one and ps4 -> Xbox series x. I love having game pass especially since I run linux on my pc it’s like having a dedicated windows/gamepass box without needing windows. Only reason I would get a ps5 is ffxvi and ratchet and clank games on the ps plus

I think both camps can be pretty hostile and ridiculous. If you go to YouTube and type in "PS fanboys", you will get dozens of die-hard Xbots complaining about "Sony Ponies" or whatever they call them. I think the fact that PS is the more popular console with the more popular first-party games might give the feeling that its fanbase is louder.

There is a degree of fairness with the fun making though. Xbox just doesn't seem to get their shit together. For every win that they take, they take like 5 Ls. There is a degree of pity and patheticness to a fanbase constantly protecting a console manufacturer that just never seems to get anything right and they never seem to get anything in return for their defending aside GamePass.

Personally I would get the Series X if you can swing it. I think it's worth it if you take good care of your consoles and keep them for years. I know my Series X will last but I don't believe the S is future proof based on the significantly weaker internals. As games progress and developers take advantage of the new systems I think the S will start to be a hindrance years down the road.
