I have a PS5, but am thinking of getting one of the Xbox series consoles because there are a couple of specific games I want to play (Microsoft Flight Simulator and Lost Odyssey for the 360). Also, it would be nice to have a Gamepass machine.

I don’t mind the idea of having digital games, but I’m just curious how much of a drop the performance is from the Series X. Especially if anyone has played Flight Simulator on it. Have you regretted getting the Series S, or has it been okay?

    You will notice a decrease in performance on the Series S. It really just depends on how much you are willing to spend. I play MSFS on the Series X but have not tried it on my Series S yet. I would expect a decreased resolution on the Series S or some other measure of decreased performance. However, the Series S is an unbeatable Gamepass machine for super cheap. As I mentioned below, I got my second Series S for $100 on Facebook Marketplace. Have a look at some YouTube videos that discuss this very topic. Here is a direct graphics comparison for MSFS!
