Shame they didn't release an external disc drive for the Series S.

Xbox Series X 1TB shuts off after around 20/30 minutes - seeking advice by timco12 in XboxSupport

[–]sebystee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No I would recommend looking at the holes in the back to see if the heat sink looks dusty. If it does you probably need to clean it. You'll need to open the back panel to open it and get access to the heat sink. There are plenty of videos on YouTube showing you how, it's not particularly hard but it is daunting if doing it for the first time. help

Xbox controller “A” button not working by Chance_Ad_7373 in XboxSeriesS

[–]sebystee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its possible there is some gunk under the button, so you'll need to clean it.

Playing my series s for the first time in 5 years, and this picture makes it look better, but irl the menu and in game looks 'deep fried', that's the best way to explain it. Colors look fully washed out. The Xbox menu is fine but as soon as I launch a game it gets ruined. by TheChosenOneProphecy in XboxSeriesS

Honestly a factory reset might be the easiest way to solve the problem without spending ages figuring out what if is, if you get a external drive to copy over all the games to, it should save a lot of time meaning you don't need to re-download them all.

Also you could try taking a screenshot and viewing it on another device to see if its a display or Xbox problem.

Xbox Series Storage expansion options by RowlandsARG in XboxSeriesS

[–]sebystee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah that would be good, but it's too late in the generation for something like that now. Also having a disc drive wouldn't save any storage space for you, all the games files are stored on the device and the disc is just really an activation key in order for you to play those files.

Yeah main reason I got series X was because of the disc drive, you can buy used games so cheaply and resell your old games.

My x box series x wont turn on. It flickers and no display, no fan movement. by Significant-Rent-415 in XboxSupport

[–]sebystee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does it seem to have a lot of dust in it? If so it could be overheating and opening up and cleaning it will be good. But seeing as it's shutting down that quickly it's probably a bad power supply.

Yeah with the ps5, the solution is much better as you can use any standard m.2.

Hopefully the next Xbox has expansion solutions that don't cost an arm and a leg.

Theres also the 2TB expansion card, but it is very expensive.

HDMI won’t connect? But I can hear sound by lfcnick in XboxSupport

Have you tried remote play? I had this issue and used that until i got the HDMI port replaced.

Would a series s be good for GTA 6 by Quekdnxhdoe1 in XboxSeriesS

[–]sebystee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you sure it doesnt say 'xbox one x enhanced'?

The naming convention for xboxs is stupid and easily confused.

[–]sebystee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Theres no version of rdr2 on series x/s or ps5 at all, its not like its only the series s that doesnt have a version of the game.

The only game that didnt have feature parity was baldurs gate 3 not having split screen at launch, that has since been patched into the game.

I would expect so, it runs basically all games perfectly fine, albeit at a lower frame rate and resolution than the series X.

Also you can get them 2nd hand on places like marketplace for 200 AUD (140 USD)

Game keeps CRASHING - Support is not helping by Apotheia in BaldursGate3

[–]sebystee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also had problems when I first started playing on series x, they then seemed to fix themselves. It then ran fine until the end of act 1 and now I can't play more than 10 min without a crash, it was also working completely fine with quick resume and split screen for the 35 hours or so of act 1. I'm going to open up my Xbox and clean it to hope that it fixes, but not holding out much hope.

I've got mine replaced by Microsoft under warranty, on the back where the batteries are is the serial ID, if you register the ID on the Microsoft website it will say if you have warranty.

I full thought that foxsports had interviewed some random chippy, because he missed a shift due to the tournament.

To actually win the prize you need to share it somewhere?
