Xbox Series S – Fortnite & Rocket League Bundle

This was a surprise Christmas gift for my kids and they loved it.

Bought 3 years ago and its still going strong

It came with everything as advertised and works perfectly. Have played a lot of games on it already :). If anyone that bought this is confused how to claim the bundles for Fortnite and Rocket League, they don’t come in a code. What you have to do is: 1. Turn on the Xbox 2. Sign into the profile you want the redeemed items to go onto, you can only do it one time so if you mess up there isn’t any going back. 3. Go to Settings then go to General. 4. Select Included with this Xbox (it should say something like that) 5. Select claim on the Fortnite part of the bundle and the Rocket League part of the bundle. Then, all you gotta do is download Fortnite and Rocket Leagye and go on then the items should be in your locker/garage. If it doesn’t show up but you claimed it, completely restart your console. Don’t turn it off and turn it back on but actually go to where it says restart console and actually click it. That trick worked for me.

Honestly, i think the Series S is a superb/great console. Only two cons, cost of external plug-in drive to overcome seriously ludicrous limited memory capacity (no excuse for not having 1TB in S and 2TB in X in modern day) AND its gameplay speed (Series S n Series X) is really not THAT much better than xbox one x. Aside from faster load times, I really dont see a major difference in performance in series s and an ssd equipped one x. Xbox series x is also not all that without 4k tv n, even with the fancy new tv, its really not that super-impressive. If i had it to do over again, aside from the series x as a surprise gift, i’d have been happy with the Series S and 1tb plug-in drive. Seagate, i think? BUT, aside from moderately faster load times, without games written specifically for these 2 new console iterations, just put an ssd in your xbox one x and keep running it until you HAVE to change up. Maybe the plug in ssd will be more affordable then and id say do that with a series s n enjoy it. To do it again? Id just keep jamming w my one x with high speed ssd. Unfortunately, im prolly giving mine to one of my Destiny clanmates who seriously needs a new console. He sherpas lfg alot of people (looking for game) through raids (like me n i super suck) so its a good cause. I'm on an xbox series x which i got from my sister as a surprise gift. Between series S and X? I’d go with Series S and 1tb expansion card n give my one x to my clanmate. Save the stress n cash n skip the Series X. Use that cash to get a 20th Anniversary or Series 2 Elite Controller to go with your new sweet Series S. Or, put it towards the memory expansion card. Since I've played all 3 n switched back n forth over the last month, i thought I’d share my wisdom. Good luck with your decision n remember, as always, ymmv.

Great console does everything I could ask and is very easy to travel with.

Worked great!

It came in the original box which was a little mangled and taped, but the console and controller were flawless. No issues and I am so happy to have saved more than $50. I bought for myself so the box condition wasn't an issue. The codes for Fortnite and Rocket League were unused. The games load so fast now! Happy with my purchase! Please Note: I brought over my external 2 TB hard drive I was using on my Xbox One S for storage. I have found that the newer Xbox Series X-S games will not install on the external hard drive due to the connection speed between the USB attached hard drive is not fast enough (the Xbox will flash a notification that you won't be able to play the game). With the Series S only having 512 GB of internal storage, I have already run out of space on my internal storage as I play mainly Grand Theft Auto V, Fallout 76, and Conan Exiles. So I will have to buy the Seagate Storage Expansion Card which will be another $150 plus. This is not a deal breaker, but I wanted to share.

Perfect perfect and perfect! It even arrived on Friday and before the date of Monday so my boy was able to set up the Xbox series s before the weekend!! Thank you!!!

I used the Xbox Series S for about a year after selling my PC to pay for school. It wasn’t terrible and definitely got me back into gaming, but the experience had its downsides. Some games had noticeable frame drops, even ones that shouldn’t have struggled, like Dead by Daylight and Warhammer 40k: Boltgun. While it served its purpose, if I had to do it over again, I’d go with a PS5 instead. Solid as I had finally had the money to build a new PC.

Gracias Xbox, es portátil y con buena potencia.

Great console for the price

Bonne console si vous ne jouez pas trop souvent et ne voulez pas dépenser des centaines dans un bon ordi ou une séries X / PS5. Le fait qu’il n’y ai pas de lecteur CD vous oblige à passer par le Microsoft store pour les jeux, mais de très bonnes réductions y sont présentes (surtout pendant le temps des fêtes!). De plus le Xbox Game Pass est très intéressant, la version ultimate, en plus de toute une libraire complète permet de jouer aux jeux sans même les installer en quelques secondes ! Pour résumer, très bonne console, limitée niveau graphique par rapport à une X mais très satisfaisant pour un casual gamer. Attention a avoir une bonne connexion pour l’avoir, sinon les temps de téléchargement seront longs.

I bought this console cause wanted to upgrade from the Xbox One S, I didnt really think of any vast improvements since this is the cheaper of the two new gen xboxs but I was wrong. I'm so glad I bought this, loading times and the quick resume features are the best thing aside form the graphics and new games that are out for it. I wasnt really too worried about the system having a disc tray since we are now mostly a digital world. I may upgrade to the Series X later down the road but for now, this is more than enough!
