Im not much of a gamer (ironically I make games for a living) but I made a bet with my kids that if the Detroit Lions make the playoffs this year I’ll buy them a system, and its looking like almost a lock to happen, so I want to get in on some Holiday deals.
This is their first non-Nintendo system so I’m a little lost on which way to go at this point in the generation cycle. For reference they’re 7 and 9 year old boys and are gonna be new to gaming that isnt based around crafting or Italian brothers. (i made them use my old NES, then SNES first, then got them a Switch a couple years back)
People like to say PS5 has no games but gun to my head I can’t name one Xbox exclusive that’s not available on other platforms.

That’s an undercount, since it’s (mostly) games not made for any other platform, including defunct and hard-to-emulate ones. On the other hand, you could call it an overcount for including games (currently) streamable through Game Pass.
Starfield… which is the only reason I would get an Xbox right now but to play one game isn’t worth it and I would rather build a PC to play any games on Xbox anyway
