I wanted an Xbox one so i could play the newer Forza Motorsport series( seems like most people say Forza 6 is the best all around), but it also seems as if the xbox one was on life support by Microsoft since they had to make the Xbox One X with 4k and HDR just to keep up with Playstation and i hear the newer Xbox’s aren’t much more reliable than the older consoles and still suffer from hardware failures.

Is it worth it to get an Xbox one X for around $120-160, or is the series X more reliable and so much better it’s worth twice the price.

I will mainly use it as a 4k player for my DVD’s and blu ray collection for upscaling and it appears to do a good job at this. Maybe get a couple FPS games as well.

Do you think it’s really worth it to splurge on the Series X if i’m not really playing many games on it?

I have researched these questions online, but always like talking to people on lemmy, so if you have other suggestions, lemme know!

    Look around on your local classifieds. Anything you find there should be better than an Xbox. Put Bazzite on it and you got the console experience.

      Ok, not good advice. You ignored the main questions I had. Also 4k players for PC’s are fucked and have tons of issues.
