The way I'm using the sim right now....sitting on a couch with a huge 4k screen doesn't seem so bad honestly. It would be fun for my kids too. I'll use my PC when I want to simulate flight. If only I could find an Xbox X.... I bought one at release from the MS store. This is the best method that I know of to find one. Follow one of these guys/gals on twitter that are tracking Xbox, PS5, Video Cards, etc like Matt Swider (link below). There are others as well. Create an account on the MS store with your CC info and be ready to purchase . He will tweet when the X has been restocked. Or you could spam the MS store link below and maybe get lucky as they are always adding stock but it only lasts for minutes.

People in the beta program have add-ons though, that affect the FPS and may also affect stuttering, etc. Supposedly, none of the people playing X-Box in these streams have had a chance to purchase 3rd party add-ons (because X-Box hasn't been released yet so there is not Marketplace for X-Box until July 27th). The more fair comparison will be when X-Box releases, and people purchase add-ons from the MSFS marketplace, how those X-Boxes with 3rd party add-ons compare to a PC version of MSFS with 3rd party add-ons. The other way to fairly compare X-Box to PC right now is to compare X-Box without any add-ons and PC without any add-ons. That would be a fair comparison, but I assume over 95% of the posters in the MSFS Avsim forum have at least one add-on for MSFS. i5-12400, RTX 3060 Ti, 32 GB RAM

My Bora Bora doesn't look like that; the central mountains are rounded and green, so it looks like they must have enhanced the scenery for the discovery flight - nice!

I think you're seeing the result of continual mouse use in some videos compared with little mouse movement in the Obsidian Ant video I posted the link to. The overhead arrow can only be seen during mouse movements on both Xbox and PC. It's a huge relief to me to see mouse support on the new Xboxes. Setting altitudes and headings would be tedious to say the least without some fullsome mouse support. Mike Beckwith

I think that most people with slow machines would happily junk their add-ons if they could get XBOX Series X Performance. Not sure why you think add-ons are going to make a difference though - they haven't with the PC version which is the same code. What is becoming very clear is the the XBOX Series X / MSFS combo is looking like a bargain and likely to be the platform of choice for those new to simming and others. like myself, will switch to XBOX as main platform for using MSFS. I did say in previous XBOX version discussions that the benefits of being able to truly optimizing the sim as the hardware is exactly known would bring fantastic performance. CJ
July 25, 20214 yr Wow that is insane. Who would have ever seen this coming. A competent aviation game - with global database + streaming sat data - on a console. So smooth!

July 25, 20214 yr You know, with the current cloud computing technology that MS and other gaming companies leveraging, games are very capable to running very nicely as long as your internet connection is fast and stable. The power of streaming is really strong And that's is the same for computer platforms too as long as its hardware is not too old and above the minimum specs. As long as the settings are reasonable, the overall gaming experiences will be good compared to other fs versions like P3D or FSX.
