XSX is good for free gamepass via farming MS rewards points. That’s basically all I use mine for. I don’t think I’d use it much at all if it wasn’t for gamepass. Probably helps that I’ve never had an Xbox before and theres a huge back catalog of games I missed that I now have access to.
Gamepass is fully usable on PC too, fyi. It's pretty well done, your saves carry over and everything.
I really enjoy the cloud save sharing. I like playing on the XSX to utilize my OLED TV and Atmos home theater, but for more challenging sections I’ll go upstairs and use MKB on my PC.
How much work do you put in farming MS points?
Probably 10 minutes a day. The microsoftrewards sub on Reddit has a lot of good info. I game the system so they don’t get any personal info on me. Even with the recent nerfs it’s enough to keep gamepass ultimate going for free. I’ve also redeemed a few hundred dollars worth of gift cards for games and MSFS addons.
