I usually always get everything every generation, the Nintendo, the PlayStation, the Xbox. I'm an old man so I'm trying to be more minimalist when it comes to gaming, so I decided to get the Nintendo and just the PlayStation OR the Xbox. I decided on the Xbox, so I sold my PS4 and all my PS4 games while keeping my Xbox One X and all my Xbox One games. The main reason was because of free cloud saves on Xbox since I don't play online or subscribe to online services. I don't really care about exclusives, but I do like Halo, Gears and Forza better than the Sony exclusives, even though Halo Infinite looks terrible. I mostly play multiplats, and my most anticipated games this generation are Diablo 4, GTA 6, Elder Scrolls 6 and Fallout 5.
Well now I'm feeling like I bet on the wrong horse. I kept my Xbox One X and Xbox One games around because that's what I'm going to be playing on the Series X, since there is NOTHING coming out anytime soon that I'm even remotely interested in. Like I said, Diablo 4, GTA 6, Elder Scrolls 6 and Fallout 5 are the only games I want and those could be years away, so I'm stuck right now playing Xbox One games for a while. Maybe Halo Infinite too if it doesn't suck too bad. But, now I'm thinking I should have kept my PS4 and PS4 games because of how much better the PS5 seems to be performing on games. I don't wanna get the system that performs worse on multiplats because multiplats are my favorite games. And since I sold all my PS4 games, I'd have nothing to play on PS5 for a couple years if I decided to go with it instead, unless I rebought all the games I sold. Money isn't an issue for me, but I don't like rebuying things I sold because it's just stupid.
The only benefit I see the Series X having is that its backwards compatibility performs better with last generation games so it's possible that it might be perfect for my situation, since I only plan on playing last gen games for the foreseeable future until the big hitters come out. But, when the big hitters come out, I'm gonna be pissed if PS5 destroys the Series X in performance on the new Elder Scrolls, Fallout, GTA, Diablo etc.
