In my words
Straight from the video. Tap a timestamp to hear me say it.
“this is a 1 tbte Xbox series X this is basically just for Halo”
“this series X that I was once so so excited about now sits in my basement as a glorified media player”
“this is incredible I mean yeah this is the same game as the series s but playing here it actually feels bigger”
“it feels like when it comes to loading times they started fast they got slow and now they're fast again”
