This is very informative. Let us know what product will be for your next review =)

thank you and I am trying to get microsoft wireless headset for xbox the latest 100$ one I haven't seen it on sale anywhere in the local market yet if not then maybe steel series arctis 9x which is still available locally....

Yeah same, US account, made it when I was there, had my US bank and cards linked to it, worked thru all the Xbox Live days of 360 era. US store has better prices, more sales n deals, so I kept the same when I came back here.

Hay there just renewed my gamepass yesterday without any issues....I think the best route is to get digital codes for game pass ultimate and redeem them without checking auto renewal method for which it requires a credit card

i have a ps5 and i am told that we can play off line all the latest AAA titles which are some how copyed on to the HDD , no idea how it works but it does .

what AAA titles are there to justify the cost of XBOX - X .

Well if you have legit psn games copied to an external hard drive then they will of course play on your ps5 as long as your psn id and id with which you bought the games/put on the HDD are the same

For Xbox You have Forza series, Halo, Gears of War just to name the few plus the power of game pass with which I am playing avengers which was an extremely underrated game I am having a blast in singer player campaign I don't plan on playing the multiplayer at all if it wasn't on gamepass I wouldn't have played it+back 4 blood, medium and outsiders were day one launches, flight simulator is jaw dropping the list goes on.

I don't believe in picking one console over the other as I am an enthusiast so I have picked up all 3: Series X, PS5 and Nintendo switch it solves the whole problem.

well i am an enthisiast my self- but the lack lister games for the xbox i sold my xbox x a while back ---yeah flight simulator looks to tbe the only title and gears of war which might bring me back to playing it though .

i was thinking to buy the flight simulator for a pc but then thought the extra equipment needed like joysticks n all - so i guess i will get the xbox x - what price range should they be in and if i want some thing like game pass which should i get which region etc . please guide

I think you can find it for 120K brand new these days might even find a better deal on a slightly used pre-owned one get the series X don't bother with series S at all and you were spot-on about the games availability for Xbox in Pakistan the difference is massive Vs PlayStation games so your best friend is eBay or other internet websites that sell USD for MS account and gamepass codes. Make the US account and get game pass ultimate it's a much better value @15$ a month you get Xbox gold+EA play+Games for both Xbox and PC.

I would suggest that you find a way to get the MS dollars and gamepass first once that is sorted buy the Xbox this is exactly what I did and couldn't be happier. At least with gamepass there's so much you can try and see if you like it or not for instance I tried back 4 blood didn't really liked it so it saved me a lot dollars just costed some GBs in bandwidth.

the price of xbox series x nearly 170k now lolz , i sold mine 5 months used for 150k now its 170k , a good console with game pass ultimate but not many AAA titles on it as compared to the ps5 . i had initially got it to play fs 2020 but moved to the pc version - though i might get it again only issue is decent AAA titles .

That's right ever since I bought my Alienware laptop with 3080ti there's no need for having xbox series x I sold mine back in September last year for 115K but I am on my game pass ultimate subscription as usual. I still think its a must have for anyone who does not own a gaming computer to complement the PS5 or nintendo switch or if on PC just get the gamepass with everything else that you're using

Now that the PS5 disk version price has gone down in Pakistan, X-Box Series X is not an attractive proposition.

I bought a PS5 UK disc version at the start of this month for Rs. 189k. The seller has now decreased the price of the same PS5 to Rs. 180k.

I think the reason for the price decrease of PS5 from 200k+ to 165k is that the supply issue has eased, and the console is now available from official stores abroad sold at $500 rather than from the greedy scalpers who were charging $800+.

Yeah depends if this is going to be your only platform (PlayStation) the availability of new and preowned games is legit in Pakistan, access to gamepass and interest in xbox offerings etc and budget for gaming. For me I just normally buy all the platforms and enjoy what's best on each platform for instance Mario and zelda on switch, gow ragnarock on ps5 and forza on xbox. If you want to have only one console or gaming unit then yeah ps5 is a no brainer
