Poll From what you've seen about the Xbox Series X, will you be purchasing it? (144 votes)

Day 1 purchase. 16%
Yes. 10%
No. 37%
Eventually. 17%
Going to stick with the PS5,Switch, etc..... 13%
Depending on the exclusives. 7%

I am definitely going to buy the Xbox Series X and planning to buy the PS5 further down the road.

Skipping Nintendo, and any other gaming platform.

Microsoft and Sony is the only one's that interest me.

Nah, I have a PC. That being said, if I didn't have a PC, i'd be tempted on a wait-and-see approach.

PS5 only for me next gen.

I have a Switch for the family. I don't think I need another Nintendo after Switch. Everything except Star Fox from Nintendo's library is on the system in HD.

I want nvidia to officially announce the rtx 3080 ti and hopefully navi 20 and next gen consoles will be capable enough to get nvidia to drop prices slightly.

will get a ps5 for exclusives unless sony decides they want a piece of the pc pie which i'm doubtful of.

Eventually, as in not what they showed. When it gets slimmed, price drops, BC is perfected, and maybe, just maybe there is one good new game to buy for it lol.

And it's gonna cost you more then the average 2080Ti worth.

Won't know the cost until it's announced but wouldn't surprise me if it's just as expensive. I'm doubtful it will be more expensive there is a point where the average consumer will stop buying and raising the cost won't make up for lost sales.

I still plan on buying a 3080 ti regardless of price.

What I'm more worried about is will the 3080 ti be a launch card historilly nvidia launches the **70, **80 series first than a titan, and sometime after the titan finally the **80 ti. titans have become prosumer cards card and I won't be spending 3k on one. I also don't want to wait close to another year for flagship 3080 ti.

Already got a faster PC, 1080ti 11gb v-ram / 32gb ddr4 / 1tb 3500/3300 / 9900k 5,1ghz on all cores.

Safe to say, nope.

Consoles don't even offer a fraction of what PC offers. So honestly i couldn't care. Unless they start to up there effort and actually provide something more then there isn't much reason for me to even care.

Yeah, chances are it would just take the price of the 2080 Ti, and the 2080 Ti would drop down to 2080 Super prices.

Wise choice. PlayStation or Nintendo is always the best choice in the long run.

Zero interest. It's literally a PC tower, and if they by chance produce a game I want, I'll get it off of steam. That hasn't been the case this entire gen though, because I'm so over Halo/Gears/Forza, and I couldn't care less about whatever Rare or Ninja Theory makes.

No you are not. You are Xbox fanboy who feels betrayed and is hoping for Xbox to gain traction so you can openly jump ship.

I think Xbox game pass has spoiled us with Day 1 access to cheap new games that it'll be backward idea just to buy a console and a game to play it. Why paid like $560 for console and disc if I can just play $10/month (or $1 for new subs) to play a game on a mid-range PC within 1-3 months?

Personally no, I prefer a console that has a lot of exclusivity and it is not the xbox.

Not sure. I still have a ton of catchup to do. I'm buying Switch games that I want as they release. I have a lot of current gen games still to play on Xbox One. Then I'll get a PS4 to play those exclusives.

I also have to keep working towards my master's degree lol which loses me a lot of gaming time. I'm guessing around holiday 2022 I'll be ready for a new console- which is fine by me since by then it should be pretty obvious which one has the better exclusives.

No, I was a pretty big Xbox fan in the 360 days. Bought an X1, and after a few months it started to just collect dust and I never turned it on for anything. After 4 years, I sold it finally (first console i've ever sold) and I think because of that i'll skip this upcoming generation. My PC should handle all the new MS exclusives anyways since they're always available on PC too (which is fantastic).

If people are into PC gaming then the X series definitely isn't worth the purchase. MIcrosoft is in a difficult position because Sony will always have a bigger market share.

Going to get the XSX but not sure about day 1 yet. Still time to decide that. Considering gamepass ultimate is a fantastic deal, I’ll definitely stick with Xbox.

Not likely.

I have no interest in buying into the xbox eco system.

The console itself looks good and the rumoured specs, if true, look nice. but i dont buy a console for services or nice looking boxes.

If it gets exclusives that interest me though then i may reconsider. at the moment though it's a no for me.

I may get an XSX controller for my PC though. my 360 controller is getting on a bit.

I'll get it if there are exclusive single player games. Another possibility would be if other friends of mine get it but that is very unlikely.

If they can give me good reason to buy one instead of playing the same games on PC gamepass then maybe yeah. I' still waiting for that reason.

Eventually.

I want to see how the hardware revisions improve. I don't think I'll need one at any point, but I like to check out new hardware. On the off chance that MS allows you to put Win10 on it I would consider it as a replacement for my living room gaming PC.

I can't believe after how far Sony has gone in anti-consumer ways, and just seem to not get it. While Xbox hitting on cylinders

Maybe that's why everyone is saying No. What's the point of buying an Xbox if you own a decent PC? Not like their games are exclusive anymore.

Really? I mean day 1 purchases and those that voted yes would be 25%. Add the 17% that will eventually get it and that'll put it at 42%. 38% saying no and then add the 13% saying they rather stick with other platforms puts it at 51% against it.

So really you're looking at 42% versus 51% and then you have that 8% who are not sure; depending on exclusives which can go either way.

@dagubot: Dude, those are pretty horrible numbers for a next gen console. Previous to this gen, before the XB1 launch fiasco, a solid yes on the poll would've probably been in the 80-90% range. As it is, more than half here don't want an Xbox. That's pretty devastating.

Those were different times...lol. Microsoft supports the PC. Some of the comments in this thread make note of that. Makes sense for people to not have to pick up the new console, myself included if we can just play the exclusives on our PC.

I was only doing the numbers because you said you were expecting the results to be a "little more balanced" in regards to the poll.

Yeah, I know. I figured when she then quoted me with even higher numbers. She went from "little more balanced" to how previous gen the poll would have been 80-90% even higher numbers which definitely wouldn't have been balanced even then...lol.

@dagubot: I was just saying that I wouldn't have thought the popularity of the Xbox brand fell that far around here, thus I thought the poll would be "a little more balanced". This is not to imply that things were balanced in the past, lol. Far from it.
