Good analysis here. Series X again running at a higher resolution but dropping some frames at 120. That's where VRR comes in I guess.

 
So gonna trade in my Xbox one & relevant bits then treat myself to an Xbox series X when the market decides I can buy one
 
Microsoft stuck to a familiar design for its Xbox Series X/S pads, only making minor changes to its design and under-the-hood improvements. In comparison, Sony opted to totally redesign its controller with new features such as haptic feedback and adaptive triggers.

“We’re definitely thinking about different kinds of devices that can bring more games to more places. There’s probably some work that we’ll do on the controller. I think Sony’s done a nice job with their controller and we kind of look at some of that and [think] there are things that we should go do.

Earlier this year, Microsoft used a customer experience survey to ask Xbox Series X/S owners if they would like to see any PlayStation controller features made available for its consoles.

Got one eventually

hasn’t been delivered yet. Getting it dropped at my bro’s house as we are taking the kids away to the beach for a week on Saturday. Then I will make my way back to Dublin to my bro’s house for a few days. He’s having a defibrillator fitted so needs someone to mind him for a few days. Plus the new Xbox to keep amused off course!

I would hope so, I like having a choice instead of being stuck with non replaceable battery like in PS controllers.

As if that's ever been a problem to a significant amount of people...

So long as they don’t need replacing after a couple of months like the playstation ones

Just admit it, it was a good idea and it can and does add to the experience. Can't wait to get my hands on them new VR controllers.

It’s something you need to try to realise how much it adds, I find trying it and then playing a game that doesn’t have it you really miss it.

That’s just me mind.

Problem or not, why not give people a choice? Everyone can just get a battery for Xbox controller that works same like PS one with cable or station charging. I myself like to change rechargeable batteries and literally have no contact with any cables, change batteries in 10 seconds, bam, I continue playing, no cables, no stations etc. And not to mention quality rechargeable batteries hold A LOT longer than the PS one or Xbox pack one.

It's all about giving people a choice, I literally see no downside to that and find mocking Xbox controllers for that bizarrely strange.

This is what I do too - it's great
 
I have memories of charging loads of batteries and swapping them out, fixing connections, buying more batteries - eneloops. Not fond memories though...

You do you... I just don't think it's a big deal for PS users.

Ooooof...the irony in how this night turned out eh?

Never get so wound up on an internet forum folks. Especially when you dish it out.

I'm done here, had a few weeks to think about it down and I can't think of a good reason to stay in a forum where a guy can make a bigoted insult towards my disability/illness casually in a current events discussion and get defended by most people there including long standing members and most importantly a couple of mods who were posting at the time. The minor temp ban he got was not good enough for me and no mod tried to reach out or calm me down, which might have helped, just @Jippy jumping in to call me an incel for what? At the moment my health isn't going in a good direction so I'm definitely more sensitive to it than I would normally be.

You can give me the discord now if you want though. The games discussion is still alright. Sorry to take things off topic, this'll be my last post on Redcafe.

Sorry to hear about your health and I understand that has to be your priority. That thread wasn't pleasant and a poster did cross the line with an insult and was temped out for it. You also threw out a lot of insults and it was difficult for mods or anyone to discuss things with you. Also it went on until the small hours of a Sunday (from memory) night and not sure staff were online - the PMs you sent me were way after I'd gone to bed.
I probably could've worded the incel comment better, but you were coming across as very anti-female, although let's not reopen that debate..
