Like others say it definitely takes practice. Also make sure you have auto aim or aim assist on.
Saying that one thing that can help is taller thumbsticks and lower sensitivity settings. Either the elite controller can do this, or you can buy grips which are thick enough to add extra height.

Practice. It took me 6-12 months to get reasonable skills with a gamepad in fps games.

Really happy you said this because i play shooters kinda rarely, the rpgs on xbox are solid good games but they just seem hollow to the ps exclusives

You just have to keep doing it and eventually you get better at it. You'll NEVER be as good as keyboard/mouse but you'll eventually get good enough to play with everyone else doing the same thing.
Turn on aim-assist in the options and don't feel bad about it. The open secret is that every console-based FPS does some degree of aim-assist. They have to as the input just isn't precise enough. Turning on aim assist actually just adds a little more. It's never actually off.

I'm not who you're asking but yes just get Game Pass on your laptop. That's what I did. Try it out for a month or two to see if it works for you. I only regret not having a console to own physical games.

I am. Just find it redundant when people post completely useless topics, don't even update that they bought a new one. You just clog up the main page.
And no, you don't know how to. If you did, you wouldn't be posting here.

Yes. That would be my recommendation. Your laptop gives you access to the same games as a Series S (although, so does an Xbox One).
However, if you just want to have an Xbox. You might as well save and get the Series X. It'll actually be cheaper than the S over the course of its lifespan, and it's a more capable system. The Series S has abysmal storage. The storage upgrade is proprietary, so it's super expensive.
The Series S is also digital only. The Series X will allow you to find dirt cheap (sometimes free) games for way less than digital sales. Games that you can also resale or trade. If you find/borrow/trade for a few games that are otherwise $40-$70 digitally and add that to the $150 - $200 memory, then you've basically covered the $300 price difference. In addition, you have a better system.
I think the Series S is a cool system for its size and capability. But I think it's most effective in the hands of people who don't game much or have more than a couple of games stored at once. It might be a good, low cost gift from a parent to a kid who might be getting into gaming but isn't 100% sure. That kind of thing. For someone who games frequently and has multiple systems already, I don't really see the point in it.

Yes series s is enough if you have already a ps5, but for enhanced graphics or high fps you can pay 250 dollars extra

Are you okay? I fully know how to disassemble and assemble it. It’s connecting but dying when removing usb cable, clearly a discharged dead battery.

It's about the same number of games but not exactly the same games. Most are the same but gamepass pc has some pc games and the Xbox version had some xbox games that aren't on the pc version.
PC game pass is $60 cheaper per year at $10 a month.
I have a PC with Gamepass and a PS5 with PS Plus Premium. Imo, you do not need a Series S.

If you cannot fix controllers or put them back together Consistently, don't do it. Reddit will not be able to help you here. You will need to open it up again, and put it back together hopefully right this time.

Just checked, yes it is. I've never reay played Halo myself (except for halo infinite). I remember it was only on xbox about 5 years ago, but it has since moved to pc aswell.

Have the people who vote for „no“ even read what he wrote? He wants to try halo and gamepass.
OP, of course you should get one then. It will be the perfect choice for you!
