I legit have no idea.
I'm going to preorder an Xbox Series X but that is subject to change based on all of this fluid information. Like I think Gamepass is a phenomenal value and possibly the greatest of all time but if Nintendo is really about to push an updated Switch, then I might not need anything thing since I'm still rocking a OneX. And I still haven't seen what 2k, Madden, Cyberpunk gameplay look on next gen.
But then Demon Souls looks like something I can't not buy even though I souls games have never clicked with me.
I'm buying an Atari VCS 800.

PS5 at launch, XSX at Halo launch. It's been my plan since Halo was delayed. I mean, it was always going to be PS5 at launch with the X at a later date for me anyway given my gaming budget for the year. With today's news, that future XSX will pretty much be a Halo/WRPG box for me.
Both, Xbox first since I play all my third party games there (thanks to game pass) and later when I buy the PS5, lots of Sony games wouldve gone down in price so it would save me money.
PC, PS5, Switch
All of MS' games are coming on PC, so there's no reason for me to get an XSX/X.

Well, thanks tho good guy Phil I now have to choose between the next Doom and the next God of War. It's still an easy choice, though.
I had a plan, and now I'm honestly not sure. Wanted a PS5/Series S, but the Xbox news today means I'm better off sticking primarily with Xbox.
As such, I'm gonna get a Series X on day one. I'm just now debating whether the $400+games I'd also spend on a PS5 is worth it, or if I should just wait until the console (or at least games) drop in price.

Would be far, FAR cheaper to just buy a Series S if you only care about current-gen games, like a new Elder Scrolls or Fallout.

I am planning on getting both. I have a PS5 pre-order booked at a couple sites (gonna offer the extra up to some fellow parents who aren't as up to date on things like pre-orders but still want to make it a fun Christmas). Gonna enter the fray tomorrow for an Xbox Series X and hope for the best. I have a solid PC build if the Xbox falls through so not a total disaster (and great goofily moogily if I can somehow get a 3080 I would really be cooking with gas).
While true, I do want a PC anyway so I can just build one and get the games I want on it.
When that will happen? Not sure but it will happen in the future.
Hope that 3080s are actually in stock at some point before the end of the year and pick up a 4k 144hz monitor.
Wife got me the PS5. I'll buy the XSX. If it wasn't for my wife getting me the PS5 I'll probably would have went for the XSX anyways.
If I can get a Series X tomorrow, I'll cancel my PS5 order. I'll pick one up later in the generation for the Sony exclusives.
Pretty sure I'll pick up a series x maybe before the end of the year or in January, then I'll decide if I should wait on a ps5 remodel (slim/pro) or pick up a digital edition when they are readily available in the middle of next year. At the very least I will wait on a PS model number revision I think.
Can't wait for hardware reviews!
Oh yeah and Switch pro if it happens. If it's a non switching box then I'll take two!

Whichever one I can snag first (PS5 or Series X). I was firmly in PS5 land- but the annoyances and difficulty had in getting a preorder up to this point, plus todays Bethesda news has me considering trying to get a Series X tomorrow (and in on the Gamepass thing) and seeing if that goes more smoothly, and if I can snag one, PS5 will wait another year or two until the stock situation normalizes and they get some of the bigger stuff out there
Not sure yet, but right now I'm leaning towards an Xbox Series S as my cheap next-gen Gamepass/media box in the living room and then just keep on with Switch/PC for whatever else. If there's any merit to the Switch Pro speculation for March 2021, I'll probably get one of those too.
Ditto!
I may not purchase either at launch, but I'm leaning toward buying both a PS5 physical and an Xbox Series X, as well as a Super Switch if those rumors are true. Planning my next PC build around the launch of The Elder Scrolls VI and Intel's 7nm desktop CPUs (maybe around 2023 if I'm lucky).
