Because of COVID my company did a remote party this year. And instead of expending money with the party they did a giveaway with lots of cool products. My name was drawn for the X Box Series X.
At first I was thinking about selling it to finish paying my PS5, because I'm not that fan of Xbox exclusives. Then I remembered that they bought Bethesda, so I decided to stick with it. And that's really crazy because right now I have all main platforms(PC, Switch, PS5 and XBSX) and almost no time to play(work + baby). Usually I only buy Nintendo consoles. Some years ago I built a PC to play some multiplatform games. Then I bought a PS5 to play a lot of PS4 exclusives I was interested and now this.

That's it, nice to be lucky once in a while....XD

 

[azertydu91]

[balgajo]

Congrats, that's awesome

I pay for the game pass on PC but tbh I'm only using it for work lately and playing only in the living room. Now I will make use of it. \o/

 

[StreetsofBeige]

Throw in some money for 3 years of Gold and do the $1 Game Pass upgrade.

You'll now have 3 years of Game Pass. And that includes EA Play.

Pretty sure it still works.

 

[GHG]

Congrats! Whats the first exclusive you'll pick up?

Cyberpunk 2077 obviously.

 

[balgajo]

Congrats! Whats the first exclusive you'll pick up?

Are you talking about MS exclusives or Series X? If series X then I got the joke...XD

I'm thinking about making use of my game pass and play multiplat. Usually I like rpgs, platformers and action adventure games. I don't remember the last time ms made a game like this.

 

[LordCBH]

Keep it. Sub to gamepass. Trust me.

 

[Troglodyte]

Congrats!

 

[prinz_valium]

Gz

 

[basic_element]

Congrats. It’s probably a paper weight for the next couple of years since you have a PS5 but like you said, once the MS studio games come out, it will come in handy to play Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Fable, and the Arkane games.

 

[Reptars Revenge]

Wow that’s awesome woot

 

[OnThePathToWisdom]

Did they give it to you right away or did they promise you one when they can actually buy one?

 

[J-Roderton]

Hell yeah.

 

[DonJorginho]

It's a great console man, I hope you enjoy it, you're gonna have the best of both worlds with Gamepass with the XSX and the Sony exclusives with the PS5, throw in the great first party titles on Switch and the brute power of PC? You've got the perfect ways to play then!

Have fun with it all brother and congrats for winning!

 

[Craig of War]

Congrats! Whats the first exclusive you'll pick up?

Cyberpunk of course

 

[lame gag1990]

That's awesome. Congratulations.

 

[Astral Dog]

Thats pretty awesome man i heard GEARS 5 is pretty good but even for third party games XSX should be a cool system

 

[The Time Of Mario]

Congrats! Pretty awesome that your name was the lucky one for the Xbox!

 

[SlimySnake]

Congrats! I hate you.

 

[Rival]

Congrats that’s awesome! I won a wii back in the day when they were impossible to find in stores.

 

[[Sigma]]

Congrats

 

[Karunamon]

My name was drawn for the X Box Series X.

Major congrats!

Consider signing up for gamepass if you don't already have it, a number of games have PC/Xbox cross-play and save.

 

[Heimdall_Xtreme]

Congratulations!!!!

Enjoy you console.

 

[liminalcadet]

My first Xbox was the Series X and I am very impressed. It's awesome.

Congrats!

 

[balgajo]

Did they give it to you right away or did they promise you one when they can actually buy one?

Tbh I don't know yet. I didn't even saw the giveaway because I'm on vacation. My coworkers desperately sent me messages when I was drawn....XD

 

[PSYGN]

Congratsaroni

 

[DavidGzz]

Game Pass it up. Paperweight my ass.

 

[Kuranghi]

I think you should consider selling your baby, that way you can pay off the rest of the PS5 AND have all that free time to game.

 

[The Infectious Paradox]

Craig be praised

 

[DunDunDunpachi]

What a sweet surprise! Keep it and get some games for it. Go play some b.c. games too since it sounds like you've never explored the Xbox library (maybe I'm getting the wrong impression).

 

[drganon]

Congratulations. I think the last time I won a contest/raffle was when I was a kid and won a free book. My life is sad

 

[AJUMP23]

Cool. One time I won a food vacuum sealer from mine.

 

[Potato Chip PRO]

Subscribe to Gamepass FOO!

 

[Max_Po]

Congrats OP, it is superb. Enjoy ....

Spoiler

F U .. why don't I win anything

 

[Nester99]

Awesome !

Get that 3 year gamepass deal!

 

[j0hnnix]

it's not a PS5.

j/k

Congratulations!!

Just get Gamepass and you're set.

 

[Aidah]

It feels nice to win. I remember a friend of mine won an Xbox One when that came out, he still felt like he paid too much for it though.

 

[mortal]

Noice.

 

[iconmaster]

At first I was thinking about selling it to finish paying my PS5,

You’re not going into debt for games, right?

 

[Falcs]

Pretty cool prize.
The best my cheap work would give away is some shitty bottle of wine.

 

[Kagey K]

it's not a PS5.

That makes it even better.

Since he already owned, but hasnt fully paid for one of those.

 

[bender]

GAFlight Club will see you in the skies in May, good sir.

Congrats my man ! You and I have similar gaming thoughts. I was all set to sit out xbox this gen , but the Zenimax buyout has too many good ip's to ignore .

 

[Hawks Eclipse]

Usually I like rpgs, platformers and action adventure games. I don't remember the last time ms made a game like this.

It's via BC but I would suggest taking a look at Crackdown (open world action with a hint of platforming), Ninja Gaiden Black & Ninja Gaiden II (action adventure), Lost Odyssey (JRPG) for starters.
