Still, seems like it would be nice to just sit on the couch, turn on the console, and play.

The way I have it now I have to connect my controller to PC via bluetooth, launch the game I want from my PC, and make sure my HDMI cable doesn't cause artifacting (means wiggling it around or connecting/disconnecting it until it looks ok).
I got the Series X so i can plug it into the living room OLED and just hop over there to play instead of switching monitors. Series X also has backwards compatibility and real sports games where as the PC only does poverty ports of them. So overall it's a win win. I rarely ever play on my OLED right now as it is.

Switching monitors just doesn't work well at all

Edit: fuk this chit. the mirroring doesn't work, it reverts to ultrawide resolution on my oled. Also after playing maybe 20 minutes tonight the game randomly minimized itself and caused me to ragequit until I realized it minimized and didn't just close on me. Think I will keep the xbox.

However, feel like I should've gotten the walmart deal.. don't need two controllers
Thing is man you have to still switch the games over to another monitor and it can mess up the settings and chit in the game and you have to switch the audio over too. With the Xbox series x on my 65 oled I can just hop over to the couch and play. Plus it has quick resume.

Switching monitors is a pain in the ass I've never liked the idea of it since it never works right

Yeah these docks are awesome

Did you calibrate your tv like the thing I sent you? after you set up your tv, here is the settings you should use for your xbox:



play the gears 5 Hivebusters campaign. It's great and a real looker. Looks as good as any non-Cross-gen game imo, even though it's cross gen

So far the xbox is significantly better on my OLED than my PC is on the QLED. Night and day difference and the ray tracing and quick resume is just incredible on the xbox. I also haven't noticed any stuttering or frame drops like i do on my PC.

I have a Halo elite controller, which is way nice. Now Scuf has a PS5 controller, so that’s an option for Sony, but the Elite 2 is certainly way nice for Xbox. Elite 2 has had huge quality control issues, fwiw. My first one got sent back w/ bad thumb stick modules out of the box. Buddy is on his like 4th in a year, too. Then again, my kid has had one since they came out and his has been fine.
