Who Pre-ordered Xbox Series X, Series S

[DoragonKingu]

Who successfully Pre-ordered Xbox Series X or the Series S? Where did you order it from? What games or accessories did you get?

[BigElephant]

Series X, Amazon, no accessories yet. I plan on getting the expandable memory eventually and I have a USB headset already that should work.

[F.A.M.E.]

Pre ordered mine from Best Buy. Is there a good chance it arrives on launch day? It says “ship by Nov 10,” so I’m thinking I might get it a few days later if so.

Make sure you guys are ordering the right console .... Reading reports of people accidentally buying the Xbox One X lmao.

MS's console naming is potato AF but I would think real gamers pre-ordering know. Hopefully it's the scalpers buying the 1Xs, LoL.

I have ps5 and Xbox preordered.

I knowvdude I thought the one from 2017 was Xbox one x

Not pre-ordering those consoles. Looking to get a new PC build by end of October or early November. These consoles come out in Nov 10th/12th, and I bet availability will be an issue (unless you pre order), perhaps even into December. Will check out reviews, see the different comparison vids that come out (FPS rates in games, what games are available and upcoming, load speeds), as well as assess what friends have, and maybe get one in December / Q1 2021. Leaning towards Series X if the available/upcoming games are sufficient, as it is the stronger console, and most friends default to Xbox. MIGHT consider PS5 if enough friends have it and its exclusives.

I truly tried to preorder yesterday but they were all sold out. I'm pretty bummed, TBH. Do you feel that there will be a second chance to preorder by to the release date?

[Lord_Lemon]

I got the money to just buy a new PC. After the latest graphics card reveals, the next gen consoles are just too weak in comparison. And the PS5 is hideous. I'll wait for a slim or hopefully a less ugly pro version.

[LtGoose]

Gonna wait until after the first wave of Red Ring of Death models get sold

[dcbone30]

I was reading a ton of people order an Xbox One X

Hopefully. Unfortunately I feel like the most likely people to do that are parents trying to buy one for their kids.

exactly. Microsoft faked up big

Secured a Series-X through Best Buy. Bought it to play through Cyberpunk at 4k60 with raytracing. If that game wasn't coming out near launch I wouldn't have picked up the new console as my oneX would be more than fine for a while.

[rocketfish]

I'm probably going to get one of the two consoles, but i am not in a rush. I will likely wait a year and see what actual next gen games ARE coming out (not these fake cross gen games)

if it comes down to it, my 9 and next year 10 year old son will likely have a decision anyway depending on his friends purchases.

[havoc00]

Na my One X should last me another year then ill jump in

[DoragonKingu]

Trying to sell my Xbox One X Scorpio Edition but so far no luck probably going to just trade it in to Gamestop get $200 not have to deal with people and selling it personally for an extra $50 or $100 is not really worth it. I hope Gamestop is still taking Pre-orders on the Series X.

Yeah I think I'll do the same. Not worth it to meet someone in person these days, especially not if we're talking hundreds of $$ and we're in a pandemic and people are desperate. Not to mention BLM.

[DoragonKingu]

Does anyone know if I trade in the Xbox One X for the Gamestop $200 credit will they give me a gift card for the amount so I can order the Xbox Series X?

[OT2000]

I wish. I got screwed when I ordered and target canceled my order saying it was oversold. Oh well, it should still be readily available at launch. I am not waiting in a long ass line though.

[toathis]

Pre-ordered. Walmart. Xbox One X. No idea what games I will get. Pissed that Cyberpunk wont be playable on next gen until 2021 despite the fact it comes out for current gen this year

it will be playable, just wont get the next gen graphics patch til 2021. Surely it will run better on the series x on day one at least?

[DoragonKingu]

So excited to play Cyberpunk looks like GTA in the future

[Lexira]

No reason to get it for me with my gaming pc so I ordered PS5

[JPeeper]

No point right now with all games being back compat with the One, will buy in a year when it drops in price even just a little.

[BigElephant]

I dont see the point on preordering anything if there arent even any decent games out yet. Why bother?

I've got a PS4 so I'm planning on catching up on some of the XB1 games that I missed, as well as going back to playing some BF3. Also holding out a flicker of hope that those rumors about a BF3 remaster are true, but I doubt they are at this point.

[DoragonKingu]

If anyone gets word of Xbox Series X coming back in stock please share the news here!

[DoragonKingu]

Is there a way to get alerts of when the Xbox Series X will be back in stock?

Kinda.

If you have a Google account, go to https://www.google.com/alerts
And create an alert for "Xbox Series X"

Alternatively you could also go to the "Shopping" tab on Google, search the new xbox and get notified for price drops. This method won't work as well because price drops aren't going to happen anytime soon lol. Must be signed into your Google account when you search for it to have the option to track price.
