    PC gaming on Xbox Series X


    Hi Hello,

    i'm weighing up buying a midrange gaming laptop or a series S.

    I've got a few games on steam and battlenet saved to a WD_Black eHD. The idea of redownloading them and paying for them again kind of makes it hard to buy an Xbox.

    Can I use Battlenet and Steam on a series S this way? Or is it just prudent to cough up for laptop and just plug and play with the games I have?

    Appreciate any thoughts.

    Cheers

    :)

    The Walking Dead: Michonne is it only the first episode free ? and not the complete game ?

    Xbox series x and laptop gaming

    If you want to play PC games then you need to play them on your PC. If your PC isn't good enough then you'll need to buy one that is. You can't play PC games on a Series X.

    Both my self assembled PC gaming tower and my Series X are connected to my new LG C2 OLED. I use either my Xbox Series X controller or my 8bitdo Pro+ for most single player PC games. You're not restricted to keyboard and mouse for PC games for the most part.

    Xbox Series X Discussion

    Just for the fun of it, I spec'ed up a Gaming PC to closely match that of the Xbox Series X spec's, just to see how cheap i could get a Gaming PC down to, To match the performance of what would be the Series X,

    The best i could come up with, at the lowest / cheapest cost for a Gaming PC to closely match the Series X, came in at £1,400, and that a rounded off number,

    So i will stick with my previous guess from my old post of £574.99.

    Also considering the Series X spec reveal, what we know now and what it would cost to get a Gaming PC to match the Series X, I would also have to guesstimate anywhere from £500 to £850.

    Xbox Series X... Is it as good as people say it is?

    The Xbox Series X is a great console in general. The specs on it is better than some PC's and thats going to draw lots of PC players and PS4 players to it. The Series X has 16gb Ram and it has great storage. The Series X will most likely have better
    graphics that make games like Minecraft look like a whole new game. I want to hear your thoughts about the series X below and tell me if any of the information above is wrong. Have a blessed day and night.
    I can't see many PC gamers switching to the Series X as their main platform. Microsoft are already bringing all their first party exclusives to the PC so there is little reason to have a PC and a Series X. Even if it is less powerful the PS5 will have exclusives
    that won't come to PC, so Sony's offering makes a far more compelling companion console than the Series X.

    Xbox needs to have console exclusives again if it hopes to pull in the PC gamers, especially since they get features of Xbox Live without having to pay the Gold subscription.
