    I have an Xbox One and Xbox 360 I'm not using. I like the controllers for both. For this reason I want to start actually playing on those consoles.

    Dilemma: Xbox One can play Xbox 360 games. So I should leave the 360 to dry? But then I'd be putting the controller to waste.

    Check out this first world problem I have!! =P

      Editing … The problem here is that you like the Xbox 360 controller. The solution is to start preferring the Xbox One controller. Glad I could help!!

      Editing … I held a 360 controller in my dream last night. It was fucked up. The only resemblance it bore to the actual gamepad was its dpad.

      Editing … Sorry, my One controller is a series X controller. (The system is compatible with both.) It has the octagon shaped dpad. It might be the best console dpad of all time if only it wasn't so noisy. I was thinking of mashing it in with my thumb to see if that wears out the switches so the clicking sounds it makes isn't as loud. I did the same thing with the buttons on my Vita when I first got it. It worked a bit.. I think.

      Editing … Say, maybe I should buy a One controller just so I'd have held every Xbox controller. But I don't think I'd like it. Bad idea to have a gloss finish on shoulder buttons.

    fuckin consoles, man. Always an adventure. I probably shouldn't have gotten the Xbox One, but I feel like since I got it I should try at least to make it work?

    It wasn't a total loss, though, as I ended up choosing an awesome gamertag. =P

    Okay so the used Xbox One I got works. But I hooked it up to a USB speaker bar and am unable to get sound out of it. Strangely, the speaker bar works fine on this PC, but not the Xbox One. And the regular speakers work with both the PC and the Xbox One. The only combination that doesn't work is the speaker bar attached to the Xbox One. I dun get it.

    I have this speaker bar (or an earlier model of it. It looks the same, regardless):

    When I received it was in bluetooth mode and wouldn't work with the PC, but I found out the issue and fixed it. So now it works with the PC but still doesn't work with the Xbox.
    Also, with the Xbox, it produces a humming/buzzing sound. Curious.

    So here's the first real Xbox Series X exclusive that I could think of. The Medium. Should've been called "pretty-looking horror game with the Cookie Monster."

    The Cinemassacre staff members tried out the PS5 and the Xbox One Series X. I kinda want to try floating ping pong balls on the XThing's air vents. That looks kinda cool...

      Editing … Was MS drunk when designing the new Xbox controller colors? Whether you get blue, red, or green, the underside is still white, while the L/R buttons and dpad are still black, so what we end up with is a vomit inducing, tri color abomination. And as if that wasn't bad enough, there are little visual aid polka dots painted right on the casing next to the buttons, which is not only egregiously condescending ("I'm new to Xbox family of devices and don't know which one the A button is! Oh god, someone help me!!") but it completely defeats the point of taking away the colors from the buttons, and easily the grossest thing about the controller, perhaps even overtaking the cheap looking Christmas LED guide button. Thanks to the current shipping shortage the respectable colors (white and black) ones are out of stock, so I have to either settle on one of these frankenstein colors, or buy used. Thanks a lot, Obama.

      Editing … Robot white Xbox controller is in stock on Amazon, but I suddenly feel I'd maybe rather have a black one. There's just something about white that isn't 'luxury'. And the LED looks strange against a light color. Depends if you can disable that though. I'd better be able to disable it. If I can then maybe white is ok. Not sure. P.S. I bought a PS5 controller and a Hori Pikachu controller. They are supposed to arrive today. I'll see if I end up deciding to use either of those.

    I'm still not sure why the next system is Xbox One X. Or S. Or whatever. Just call it Xbox U or something.

    Sony's press conference looked a lot more promising than Microsoft's. I'm not a big Microsoft fan, but y'know, they need another Metal Wolf Chaos or something.
