Thoughts on Series X

- Storage is fast.
- Moving games from the internal storage to the (proprietary) 1TB expansion storage is amazingly fast. Absolutely ridiculous.
- It feels very much like owning a One X. Microsoft has been working on the UI for months on the One X, and it is the same here as it was there.
- Dirt 5 is a lot of fun, I'm not overly blown away by the visual experience.
- Watch Dogs Legions shows a clear upgrade. Ray tracing is trippy, but it's also something you adapt to right away and it's such a cool add but you begin to take it for granted almost immediately.
- The controller is very familiar. The minor adjustments to the shell at the top makes the bumpers feel a good deal better.
- The Shock Blue controller is beautiful in person
- KOTOR 2 looks fantastic. The Auto-HDR/whatever other processing they're doing on it makes it pop. I'm finally going to play through KOTOR 2!
- This platform seems very much like a culmination of all the xbox platforms rolled into one. I definitely love Microsoft's approach to backwards compatibility.
