#18 I will name 5 reasons why it is not worth buying Xbox One X!
1.This is not a new generation. It's just an Xbox One on steroids. Microsoft followed Sony and its Playstation 4 Pro and released the same, but much more powerful. Therefore, if you have an Xbox One S, sit still.
2. A small number of exclusive games. Of course, there are titles that could show the real power lurking in the Xbox One X. There are real pearls, such as Forza Motorsport 7 or Gears of War 4, but it's still too small.
3.Without a good TV 4K-anywhere. Someone will say that this argument is very tight, because Xbox One X can work without problems on TVs FullHD. Even with a lot of improvements, from the best textures to the best smoothing. But, probably, no one will argue that the full potential of this console can be unveiled only together with a 4K TV and an extended HDR range.
4.Rigid competition with ... Xbox One S. It seems it's funny? Maybe a little, but ask yourself the question - what makes the new Xbox One X better than the old one? If you look at the whole, there are quite a few differences. In the case of the new X, we buy brute power, the true potential of which has the chance to unfold only sometime in the future. On this, unfortunately, you will need to wait a little.
5.The price ... And in it I see the biggest problem of the Xbox One X. Do not be fooled, 700$ is quite a nice amount for the console, especially for people a little older generation (25+). And even this is even slightly more expensive than the Playstation 4 Pro. Xbox One S can be purchased now for less than 315$. And there is a very high probability that as a result the next couple of years you will not notice the difference.
A new console is always a joy. It's a pity that the Xbox One X does not offer many advantages, which in some way will make it a more exclusive platform. Such, for example, as a more interesting interface, or special functions, or, most importantly, games from which your friends would simply fall off their jaw.
But even though all this is missing, it is still an interesting top-end option for those who just think about getting into the world of consoles. Or for those who finally decided to abandon the Xbox 360 or Playstation 3 and buy something really new. Most likely, in this case it is better to buy in the future.
