Some sandwiches, slices of meat, sausage rolls, lots of cake and biscuits, and a banana.
Oh, I thought you said the largest LUNCH in history...
If Mircosoft make a few more of those Series X Fridges, that may not be such a far-fetched idea!

Xbox Series X and S Are The Best-Selling Xbox Consoles Ever
Phil Spencer, head of Xbox, has revealed the Series X and Series S console generation is the best selling in the 20-year history of the brand...

I haven't been able to secure an XBox Series X. All the scalpers must be driving sales.
With the series s being so cheap I do sometimes think I should finally jump into xbox after being a Sony man since ps1 but I just can't justify spending money on another console when I already have a ps5.
Microsoft do make it tempting with such a low price for the s though.

I can see the argument of the Series S being underpowered, but in what world is it last gen when it runs circles around even the One X in terms of general performance? And in what world did Microsoft ever say that consoles are a thing of the past? It would be odd if they believed that...and they weren't pumping more money into the Xbox brand and subsequently, buying up Bethesda if they expected that consoles would be kaput by the next generation.

It’s last gen in the way that it can’t hold a candle to the PS5 which doesn’t have a gimped version of itself for sale. Microsoft’s messaging saying “just buy game pass wherever, the hardware doesn’t matter” has been relentless. Microsoft would rather throw money around and race to the bottom on price instead of producing anything compelling, hardware or software wise. Microsoft consolidating and bleeding dry the games industry should worry anyone.

MS hasn't published Xbox sales figures since November 2014. I think you'll be waiting a while!

It's absolutely legit, all the info came from official documents in the FTC court case. Of course designs may have changed by now, as it's all at least a couple of years old. Other info is the plan for the next gen to begin in 2028, and Phil Spencer desperately wanting to buy Nintendo!
