Getting an XBox X this week. What do I need?
-
They improved the way the included Xbox gamepad works with the Show since this time last year. Some time in the last 6 Months I believe it was. So if you dont get a Power A right away you should be fine. The Power A is now just a little bit better than the original, as opposed to a necessity a year ago.

And I grabbed this rechargeable battery pack from Walmart for pretty cheap. Just plugs into the wall.

Thanks everyone. Now, I have to wait for the snow to stop and the roads to clear so I can get out of the mountains to pick up my new goodies

Thank you for the info on getting three years of Game Pass Ultimate at a much lower price than the monthly subscription. If only I had thought to buy the Xbox Live Gold subscriptions at Costco...I could have saved myself an additional $15. Oh well - next time.
Thank you again.

I’ll be playing MLBTS on it.
Should I get a different controller than what’s in the box? I don’t see that it comes with a USB-C cable for charging or playing wired with the controller. If it does (and it’s not listed), how long is the cable?
Anything else I should consider? I live in the mountains and it’s a long trek to the store (even longer with all the snow we’ve been getting), so I want to make sure I get what I need in one shot.
I know 22 is on Game Pass, so I’m not getting that.
I have an 42” LG C2 I’ll be connecting it to, how long is the HDMI cable?
Thanks in advance for any advice.
mate get the HALO game - i have no idea if its good now but back in the day this was the gospel for us - sticky nades
Do I start with Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary?

Upgrade complete. Now, to get used to the new controller.

Mugshots are crazy

What is your thoughts on the LG C2? Is it too big for a desk setup? I have the series x and ps5 and looking to upgrade from my benq zowies. I am leaning toward the standard 28/27 inch 4K monitors out now with 2.1hdmi but the last couple of days I been thinking about the 42inch C2.

I've had it less than a week, but so far it's been great. Sometimes I need to scoot back because I feel too close, but overall, I like it. If your desk and room have space for it, it's not a bad option. To compare the size with a 27" monitor, the one to the left of the TV is a Gigabyte M27Q.

Thank you for the feedback, much appreciated.

Xbox controllers use batteries. Unless you bought a 3rf party controller.
