About this video
The Xbox Series S was designed to make next-gen gaming affordable — and at just $299, it absolutely delivered on that promise at first though because in 2025? Its kinda getting tired we cannot lie on that.
This compact console has come under fire from both players and developers. In this video, we’ll dive into why the Series S is getting hate (which i never understood)
We’ll cover how the Series S brought next-gen access to the masses, why it’s still a great fit for Game Pass, and where it surprisingly still holds up today. But we’ll also look at the other side: the 30 FPS limits, missing features, and why some devs are pressuring Microsoft to ditch Series S support altogether.
It may have started as a budget-friendly entry point, but has the Series S quietly become a bottleneck in modern gaming?
(I made this video before GTA VI Trailer 2 thats why i didn't add lots of details about it)
