I was always a PC gamer but now having a nice TV in the basement the console is just a more natural choice. I tried using Steam big picture among other options but it still doesn't fit as well as a console does for me. Xbox had different tiers of consoles? Guess I didn't research Xbox much and haven't had one for ages.

Yeah in the most recent gen they had series S and series X, the S being a low end new gen and X being the flagship ps5 competitor in spec.

Tbh xbox has terrible naming conventions that make it difficult.

In the 360 era they had multiple options mostly relating to HD size.

I follow tech, gaming, consoles, etc.

I still have to fucking double check S/Series S and X/series X because those are the dumbest names ever.
