    You must be living on a different planet to everybody else. I bought a PS5 in November and my Series S never gets used anymore.

    Current PS5 TSW sale is fantastic, and we are getting a new batch of discounts next Wednesday or Thursday in the Spring mid-sale refresh.

    XBOX is dead to me now.

    It's quite shocking that there's no DLC included in the XBOX Spring sale - it's an absolutely huge affair with well over 2,000 games & DLC discounted.

    Yes my comment was from over 2 months ago when Xbox had some good sales, I agree though now the sales have gone back to being terrible.

    The last sales where pretty good on Xbox, so I hope those kind of sales will continue. The console before my Series S was a PS4 slim, but I was pretty dissapointed about the hardware design, especially the bad cooling. Also the PS5 has not the best designed cooling, it's more like design over functionality. A proper VRR implementation is also missing on PS, only a limited one is available when you combine your PS with an expensive HDMI 2.1 screen. Then we even didn't talk about the PS dashboard. If the next Xbox is not to my liking, I will switch to PC, most likely something based on SteamOS, like the upcoming Steam machine. No PlayStation for me anymore.

    Sadly it's the norm with Xbox. It very rarely gets any decent sales compared to PS and PC. I've asked several times on X/Twitter why this is, and of course, they never reply.

    I was hoping for a bit more tbh. Specifically the 38 Tube Stock as I bought Bakerloo in the last sale or the Class 33 as there's railtours for it on Medway Valley and the 171 timetable on East Coastway

    The next Xbox will essentially be a low-to-mid level PC and is a few years away.

    I know, but I hate Windows. So for that reason I will wait and see how it's gonna be, if I not have already decided to buy a Steam Machine.

    This was me 6 months ago. I ended up getting curious about building my own Steam machine with some basic hardware and within a month I’d built a decent gaming PC instead.

    It was very stressful and Windows was responsible for probably 95% of that but I can’t tell you how glad I am that I persisted.

    I've been waiting years for the 33 to go on sale.

    So you're using Windows now if I get it correctly? The only reason for using Windows in the future, is the fact I don't have to pay again for my TSW routes, but I think I will prefer using Steam on Linux and buy routes again when on sale.

    I am yes and just to be really clear - I can’t stand it. There’s a trade off though and I much prefer the PC version of the game to console. I can’t go back. Windows continues to be a daily nightmare but it’s become worth it somehow

    What's worse is that a huge XBOX Spring Sale DLC follow up is due to drop today and there doesn't appear to be any TSW DLC included in that either:

    What with all the technical issues on XBOX and the lack of discounts we really are the poor relation....
