A new rumor suggests Microsoft’s next-generation Xbox, codenamed Project Helix, could cost between $999 and $1,200 while delivering major performance gains over the Xbox Series X.
I do play a lot on my PS5, but besides that it’s my 4K disc player. I’ve got both that and the Xbox Series X, as the secondary 4K disc player. Plus y’know there’s all the old games I have on disc that are backwards compatible.
And to be honest I do prefer to game on my couch with my nice huge TV, where my main work and gaming PC isn’t.
I do have an older PC connected to the tv but it’s more for streaming and torrented content than gaming these days.
At some point I’ll bite the bullet and switch that one over to Linux and see if I can get some more gaming life out of it.
All that said, I don’t see myself buying whatever the hell this next Xbox/PC will be.
I’m more inclined to grab that Steam Box whenever the hell that is able to come out and whenever the hell I can afford it.
If you already have a capable PC, use steam link or sunshine. Both work well, sunshine better for Linux, but works perfectly fine to play PC games on your couch with a controller.
